Ethereum is a decentralized computing platform that uses ETH (also called Ether) to pay transaction fees (or “gas”). Developers can use Ethereum to run decentralized applications (dApps) and issue new crypto assets, known as Ethereum tokens.

Helium is a global, decentralized network enabling individuals to build and operate wireless infrastructure for mobile cellular traffic and the Internet of Things (IoT). Participants deploy Hotspots, plug-and-play devices that act as miniature cell towers, to provide coverage and earn rewards in HNT. The Helium Network offers a new approach to connectivity by distributing infrastructure ownership and incentivizing participation, creating a model that is more cost-effective and community-driven than the traditional telecom industry.
