And since you already built and perpetually operated this physical underlying p2p guerilla fiber and RF meshnet for free, you can obviously further monetize or benefact it with all sorts of plugins like the two below if you so wish... but you cannot do or gain anything by continuing to beg and subjugate yourself to FCC and GovCorp to do it for you, most certainly not freedom. " "Helium is an interesting project that’s trying to build a completely decentralized 5G infrastructure. Render is… trying to build a completely decentralized graphical processing structure, GPUs essentially. In both of those things, you can quantifiably economically measure what the value is that people get. In the case of Render, you’re basically displacing an AWS [Amazon Web Services] instance. That has a price and a value. For Render to be valuable, there’s an economic value that it replaces. If you’re joining a Hotspot, that has an economic value where you hadn’t necessarily had to pay to get internet connectivity, if you all of a sudden were on the Helium network. That displaces a measurable economic quantum. Understanding that and taking the absolute value of that is the best way of understanding which projects have potential... where is there developer interest and where is there measurable economic activity? At the intersection of those is where the really compelling projects come in." -- Palihapitiya "
