Recent discussions in the crypto space have highlighted Helium’s potential to revolutionize wireless infrastructure. Traditionally, large carriers had to build more cell towers to expand coverage, which entailed a substantial capital expenditure. Helium, however, offers a novel method for increasing wireless coverage through a decentralized network of mobile nodes.
The network is reportedly in talks with two major U.S. carriers who are testing offloading their traffic onto the MOBILE network. Carrier 1 has about 185,000 subscribers, and Carrier 2 has over 122,000 users participating in the trial.
If successful, the carriers could save on costs and provide better coverage, while Helium would benefit from increased traffic and revenue flowing to hotspot providers.
Helium MOBILE has about 20,000 active hotspots, and its IoT solution has 360,000 locations, and the numbers are growing, according to its statistics page.
HNT total open interest has jumped by 65% to $6.71, showing an increase in traders’ interest in the altcoin, thus suggesting that new money is supporting the upward price rally, according to Coinglass data.
Data from the market intelligence platform also shows that the total funding rates aggregated by HNT are at 0.0049%, indicating traders’ positive sentiment on WIF’s price increase.
The Relative Strength Index is currently at 58.82, suggesting that there could be more room for the price to increase before it is considered overbought. Another indicator, the Stochastic RSI, also shows that Helium is currently in an oversold territory.
Both indicators suggest that HNT’s price could still see a significant rally before reaching an overbought zone, after which the token might face a reversal.
