Hi Jeremy,
As one of the coordinators for ON land (44.144) I thank you for bringing this to our
attention. I will investigate this matter.

Hi all, I’d like the ARDC to investigate and possibly revoke the assignment for
44.144.50.0/25 due its use for commercial purposes.
I’m a long time member of the group here but I’m also heavily involved in the Helium
radio-based blockchain. I’ve noticed three Helium “hotspots” or “miners” that are using
this allocation. While I am personally a fan of Helium, I don’t think its use is
permissible on the AMPRNet as Helium hotspots do earn monetary compensation for being
connected to the Internet. As a responsible AMPR block recipient myself, I feel it’s
important that we continue to honor the ARDC’s rules for the AMPR space, and this is one
of them.
The hotspots in question are:
