Karrier One, a company focused on building a decentralized mobile phone network, has announced the availability of its WiFi offloading device. The device is part of Karrier One’s efforts to expand its global network by allowing individuals to become nodes in its decentralized physical infrastructure. Purchasers of the device can earn the company’s native KONE token by making bandwidth available. Additionally, the first 300 devices are being given away as part of a promotional effort.
Earlier this year, Karrier One took significant steps in its development by launching the Karrier Number System (KNS) in a closed beta. The KNS integrates account verification, SIM swap protection, and Know Your Customer (KYC) processes into a unified ecosystem. Utilizing the Sui platform, each phone number within the KNS is represented as a non-fungible token (NFT), ensuring security and preventing duplication.
As a decentralized telecom provider, Karrier One’s network relies on individuals installing 5G cellular access points. Participants in the network earn tokens based on the usage of their access points. This model has the potential to extend telecom services to underserved areas that centralized providers may overlook. The company leverages Sui for managing its token and KNS system, which facilitates the creation of phone numbers for network users.
How the WiFi Offloading Device Works
Users who acquire the WiFi offloading device need to sign up with Karrier One and connect the device to their home Internet. The company has established partnerships with telecom providers, such as AT&T, to offer WiFi services to their customers. As the user’s device begins providing bandwidth to the telecom, they start earning Karrier One’s token.
Details on entering the giveaway or obtaining a discount for purchasing the device can be found on Karrier One’s official communication channels. More information is available here.
SCION Connectivity and Future Plans
In addition to the WiFi device and KNS, Karrier One is set to provide SCION connectivity, a new global networking standard for the Internet. SCION serves as an upgrade to the existing Internet Protocol, enhancing data transmission across the Internet. As SCION is implemented, it will integrate with current Internet network architecture, enabling data packet routing to other SCION-equipped routers.
