Mobile operator beta passes, expands network coverage
HIP 129 was passed three days ago, allowing all mobile access points to participate in Carrier Beta. This expands the range of Carrier Beta, which will impact network performance in the long term.
Since almost the entire continental United States is covered by the Helium network receptionthe community will see an boost in users trying to offload the Carrier beta. At the time of going to press, over 58,000 users have joined since last week, a net gain of 5,122.
Data usage also increased, with an additional 1.5 terabytes of data flowing through the platform.
Investors benefit from recent helium opportunities
The token is currently trading above the $7.2 support, with bulls confidently approaching the $8 level. With forceful bullish sentiment supporting its trajectory, HNT is expected to break through this level in the coming hours or days. With the development of the Helium chain, investor confidence is at its highest as they continue to accumulate the token.
However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggests that the momentum will sluggish down. However, this could happen well after the $8 level is broken. If this happens, investors and traders have a chance at $9 in the long term.
Given the overall market sentiment, HNT could see a slight pullback, possibly returning to the $7-$8 price range before a forceful push up towards $9. This represents almost a 22% price boost.
However, investors and traders should pay attention to the market as any change in the broader market can impact the token’s trajectory in multiple ways.
