About usage, this tech has historically been used for industrial enterprise applications, like sensors, valves, environmental data. A large scale network has never been available to individuals so there aren't many consumer facing applications. I think the first big ones will be very cheap package tracking.

The 40M figure is pure data from roaming partners and end usage. Here's a tweet https://twitter.com/DeWiGoSite/status/1508492610435903490?t=...
You can measure this yourself at etl.dewi.org
Do you have a source for the 40m packets number? Does that include the packets that the miners send to each other for proof of coverage?
I'm having trouble imagining the uses for an expensive, slow, unreliable, bespoke network that's limited to the areas with helium miners nearby. If you have an example of someone using this I'd love to read more.
