There is a scam American companies are using to manipulate what ingredient gets listed as the first main ingredient on products
Take Smuckers, strawberries is the first ingredient. So you would think strawberries is the main primary ingredient, but that’s not true
American companies are using a food formulation technique known as ‘ingredient splitting’
For Smuckers, they divide the sweeteners up into 3 different ingredients. That way, each of them weigh less
This allows the word strawberries to be listed on the label as the first ingredient, giving the impression that it's mostly strawberries. In reality, it's mostly sugar.
This is a scam. It’s outright manipulation of our system and lying to customers
Ingredients splitting is a real labeling tactic, and it is legal. It’s allowed by the FDA
I included 10 more popular American foods where this same “ingredients slitting” scam tactic is being used at the end of the video

I was just thinking about the stories we’ll tell one day, how we survived the bear market, kept building when nobody was watching, and turned every setback into fuel.
The red screens, failed commands, deployment days, long nights, and constant troubleshooting? That’s not failure. That’s the part of the story people skip when they talk about success.
We didn’t just survive the bear market we built through it. 🐻➡️🚀

BREAKING: Apple $AAPL is hiring a crypto stablecoin lead for Apple Pay

DePin is not a hype label. It’s a different kind of opportunity. Less abstract, more grounded. Yes, it asks for people skills and a bit of grassroots hustle, but that’s exactly where its moat is. Most folks won’t do the legwork, which means the ones who show up early and consistently build durable positions.
This isn’t churn and burn yield. It’s own the rails. You get closer to real revenue, you learn how networks actually meet the world, and you build relationships that compound. It’s effortful, sure, but that effort is your advantage. If you like being early to something real, enjoy building, and want an edge that isn’t easily copied, that’s the appeal.

Reminder before the weekend: The Helium Network now pays deployers more for data.
HIP-150 passed ✅
Per-site reward multipliers up to 5x at high-demand venues, and a target minimum raised from 50% to 80% of what carriers pay for rewardable data, at every site.

ALT WiFi NOW Presents: Next-Generation Indoor Coverage, Featuring Helium. Live Webinar | Tues, Sept 8. 10 AM PDT / 7 PM CEST

A new era of connectivity starts today.
Introducing HeliumOS, the full-stack operating system for the business of connectivity.
For decades, telecom's playbook was simple: build more. That playbook is breaking. The winners now are whoever can intelligently use the best available network, not just the biggest one.
HeliumOS is the platform built for this moment.
Real-time Wi-Fi control for venues.
Agentic analytics through HeliumAI for operators.
Automatic Wi-Fi for consumer apps.
Full carrier enablement for carriers and MVNOs.
Quality connectivity that just works, driving the retention and revenue that come with it.
HeliumOS integrates natively with the Helium Network, the world's largest decentralized wireless network, built by communities incentivized by solana:hntyVP6YFm1Hg25TN9WGLqM12b8TQmcknKrdu1oxWux. That Network already serves millions of mobile users each day in places traditional telecom can't reach.

solana:hntyVP6YFm1Hg25TN9WGLqM12b8TQmcknKrdu1oxWux has exploded over the last few days.
But the price action isn't actually the most interesting part of the story.
I went back and looked at what Helium is building today, and this is becoming a very different network from the one most people remember from the last bull cycle.
Cities like Celina, Redondo Beach and Sausalito are turning existing WiFi infrastructure into cellular coverage through Helium.
AT&T is already using the network across thousands of US locations.
Telefónica opened Helium connectivity to millions of subscribers in Mexico.
Expansion Zones are now showing deployers exactly where carriers need additional coverage, while Helium Plus is targeting cities, schools, universities, stadiums, hotels and existing commercial WiFi infrastructure.
Brazil and the UK could be the next major expansion stories.
So maybe this latest solana:hntyVP6YFm1Hg25TN9WGLqM12b8TQmcknKrdu1oxWux pump isn't only speculation.
The bigger thesis is that Helium is slowly evolving from a crypto powered hotspot network into a decentralized infrastructure layer that traditional telecom operators can actually use.
There are still risks.
HNT's value capture needs to improve, and upcoming token incentives/emissions have to be watched carefully.
But the asymmetric part is difficult to ignore:
Helium today has more real-world adoption than it had during the previous cycle, while solana:hntyVP6YFm1Hg25TN9WGLqM12b8TQmcknKrdu1oxWux is still nowhere near its old valuation.
I'm holding this one with a longer-term view now.
The next thing I'm watching isn't the chart.
It's the next city.
The next carrier.
And how much real traffic flows through the network.
That's where the solana:hntyVP6YFm1Hg25TN9WGLqM12b8TQmcknKrdu1oxWux story gets really interesting.

A group of people known as “deployers” have deployed 40,000 cash flowing hotspots across the United States.
Everyday these devices re-route 100 terabytes of cell traffic from over 2,500,000 people DAILY.
