Summary

Currently, discovery and verification mapping is limited to subscribers of a service provider approved by the MOBILE community. Since Helium Mobile is the only provider at the moment, this creates a barrier to becoming a mapper and slows down the expansion of the network. This proposal seeks to boost the number of Wi-Fi mappers by eliminating the requirement for mappers to be customers of a service provider.
