Crypto (Advertising) Is Back, Baby!

TL;DR

  • The crypto-powered mobile network, Helium, has just been named the Official Wireless Sponsor of University of Miami.

  • Helium offers an unlimited, contract-free phone plan for $5 per month.

  • And who hates commitment and loves saving money more than college students?

Full Story

Wow, ok.

So, a few things to note here:

  1. Mainstream crypto advertising might be back.

  2. There might actually be product/market fit here (which is a rarity in Web3).

What're we on about?

The crypto-powered mobile network, Helium, has just been named the Official Wireless Sponsor of University of Miami.

Helium is made up of a network of Wi-fi looking hotspots, that share mobile data and phone signal - all of which are operated by everyday people, who earn crypto tokens for supporting the network.

(And when phone users aren’t within range of a hotspot - Helium taps the T-mobile network).

Working largely outside the existing system like this means Helium can (somehow) offer:

An unlimited, contract-free phone plan for $5 per month.

(Wild right? Unfortunately it's only available in Miami).

And that's where the product/market fit comes in...

Because who hates commitment and loves saving money more than college students?
