I’ve been seeing news about the Helium network for quite a while now and have been curious about it. However, it has been near-impossible to find information on it that isn’t either crypto-hypeman speak or “lol crypto LMAO”. Not a big fan of crypto myself - just interested in the prospect of contributing to a large-scale infrastructure or computing project. Any recommendations for similar things, or in this ‘genre’, I suppose?

    Ipfs is a really cool useful project.

    Filecoin is cool for super cheap longterm cold archives

    Helium is well. I have mixed feelings about it.

    Akashnet is a cool decentralized marketplace for docker container deployments.

    There are a few peer to peer decentralized vpn things here and there.

    There are tons of projects that are cool in concept but I really have to say you are more likely than not to lose money if you speculate on any tokens attached to the projects.
