2. The Helium Hotspot & Proof of Coverage (w/ Amir Haleem)

Helium co-founder and CEO Amir Haleem joins us once more to talk about the decisions that went into the hardware, software and design of the iconic Helium Hotspot. We cover security, hardware specs, resource consumption, and also take a look into a future where there are 3rd party hotspot manufacturers and DIY hotspots mining on the network.We also dive into Proof of Coverage, which is the method of verifying that real coverage is being provided by hotspots on the network, and has also been the rocket fuel behind the Helium Network's growth.You'll hear some crazy ideas about old Proof of Coverage schemes, including sampling public radio, and where its design might go next, including coverage maps and witness sampling.Fair warning, this is an in-depth technical discussion.Learn more about Helium: https://www.helium.com/Follow me: @rawrmaanFollow Amir: @amirhaleemFollow Helium: @heliumIntro song: Lakey Inspired - Arcade
