Helium has approved HIP 149, allowing the issuance of about 141 million Helium Network Tokens (HNT) over the next 36 months. The issuance will remain flat for the first year and then gradually reduce to zero over the following two years. These tokens are intended to support network operations and growth, with a small portion (1.25%) allocated to community council members. This issuance does not affect rewards for on-chain Hotspots, and users continue to pay fees using Data Credits, which are created by burning HNT.
