Continue this swapping until the two particles you want to combine are across from one another. If you want to combine particles that aren't across from each other, swap a particle's position with its neighbor.Need a clue about where to drag your particle? Look for the glow when you are dragging particles or the step by step process in the bottom right of the game screen! You have to match the right particles to keep the reaction going. The order matters: not all particles will combine.Drag the particles across the board to make reactions happen. Combine particles that are across from one another on the game board.Make some helium, create some energy, and keep the Sun shining bright!Ĭombine, swap, and complete reactions for points! In this game you'll combine protons and neutrons to create this type of nuclear fusion. Fusion is what makes the Sun burn so hot for so long. When several of these particles combine in just the right way, hydrogren is converted into helium, the same stuff you might use to fill up a birthday balloon! When the Sun makes helium, it also releases energy. A hydrogen atom usually has one proton and one neutron. One type of fusion happens when the Sun combines, or fuses together, tiny particles called protons and neutrons. Where does this energy come from? It comes from a process called fusion. The Sun is a major source of energy for us on Earth. The goal? To convert hydrogen atoms into helium atoms. We’d also like to thank the Helium Blockchain team who will work to make this proposal a reality.In this pairing game, keep the Sun shining bright by matching up particles. In closing, we’d like to thank the authors of this proposal, and the community members who contributed to its design. The DeWi Alliance is formally requesting the Helium Core Developers begin work on implementing HIP-20 with the goal of deploying the changes as soon as safely possible and no later than August 1st, 2021.Īlong with the overwhelming support of the community, our belief is that this will create the right incentives for the growth of the Helium Network. Enables Burn and Mint economics to work in harmony with a capped supply of HNT through Net Emissions.Gives hotspot hosts more motivation to deploy the network as fast as possible to take advantage of the higher HNT issuance in the early days of the network.Ensures that there is no change to the cost of transmitting data on the Helium network.Ensures HNT scarcity by capping HNT supply, further enabled by halvenings to HNT issuance every 2 years.When HIP 20 is implemented, Helium will be the first protocol to implement this crypto-economic construction. Net Emissions have been discussed in abstract by other crypto communities and are also inspired by the work of researchers in the Bitcoin community. Starting on August 1st, 2021 (2nd anniversary of the Helium Network genesis block), HIP 20 will take effect and reduce issuance to 2.5M HNT per month.īuilding on the proven scarcity concepts pioneered by the Bitcoin network, HIP 20 also introduces a new feature called “Net Emissions.” Net Emissions is a breakthrough economic construction that serves to incentivize miners even after the hard cap on HNT supply has been reached.

To date, 60.7M HNT tokens have been mined by miners around the world. HIP 20 adjusts the economics of the Helium Network and introduces a max supply of 223M HNT. Issuance Halvenings, Net Emissions, and a Max Supply are Coming to HNTĪfter weeks of deliberations, the Helium Community has approved Helium Improvement Proposal 20 (HIP 20), a proposal that introduces a max supply for HNT and the concept of “ halvenings,” which will ultimately reduces the supply of HNT every two years on the network’s genesis anniversary.
