Description
Roam, a project by MetaBlox Labs, is focused on creating a decentralized OpenRoaming WiFi network. It utilizes the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) model and Web3.0 technologies to establish a global WiFi network that leverages eSIM and Blockchain technology to connect users to millions of WiFi hotspots worldwide across over 190 countries. The platform enables users to stay connected and earn rewards, with security enhanced through Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs). The system is built around the Roam Protocol and uses token incentives, specifically the $ROAM token, to encourage network participation and growth through Proof-of-Service and Proof-of-Validation mining, along with staking. Roam offers hardware products such as the 'Roam Rainier MAX60' and 'Roam Baker MAX30' mining routers and the Roam App, an all-in-one Web3 application for accessing WiFi, eSIM services, and managing rewards.
