According to the press release, the partnership would enable Helium Network users to use the T-Mobile 5G network alongside with Helium\u2019s own native 5G network. This would entitle users to opt-in of the MOBILE rewards system.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This system rewards users for sharing data about Helium\u2019s dead spots location in the United States which would help them save on cellular data plans. The public beta launch of the rewards system will launch during the 1st quarter this year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Helium and Solana\u2019s <\/span>merge event<\/span><\/a> will also happen at the same timeframe. The upgrade would enable the ecosystem to give more back to hotspot owners as 2 million HNT would be allocated annually for rewards.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
It would also make the network faster and reliable as the proof-of-coverage system of Helium gets buffed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
What Does This Mean For HNT?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
As of writing, the token faced a rejection at $3.4 with the bears trying to reach the $2.8 support line. The first few months of this year could set up HNT for greater heights as the rewards system and the merge of Solana and Helium happens at nearly the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n
With the token\u2019s price at $2.9, HNT is expected to face challenges in the short to medium term as volatility enters the market. If the token\u2019s current support is broken, investors and traders might have a hard time to revert back to its current price point.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, with the onset of its merge with Solana and the rewards system public beta launch, we might see less pain in the medium to long term.
