The rise of Decentralized Wireless (DeWi) networks, like Helium and Pollen Mobile, offers immense potential for IoT by providing scalable, low-cost connectivity through crowdsourced infrastructure. Helium’s vast network, now on Solana, supports IoT applications like smart cities with over 900,000 hotspots globally, boasting strong market prospects despite regulatory risks. Pollen Mobile, focusing on cellular data, targets niche high-bandwidth IoT uses, but its smaller scale and evolving model temper its outlook. Both challenge traditional telecoms, tapping into IoT’s growth—14 billion devices by 2030—yet success depends on adoption, regulation, and execution.
