+that your changes adhere to any contribution guidelines specified by the project maintainers. If
+necessary, include screenshots, test results, or any other relevant information to assist the
+reviewers in understanding your changes. 
+
+5. **Collaborate and Iterate**: Be prepared to address any
+feedback or requests for changes from the project maintainers during the review process. Collaborate
+with them to refine your contribution and ensure its alignment with the project's goals and

+# Contibuting a Helium Improvement Proposal (HIP)
+
+HIPs are modeled off Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs) and has become a standard in the crypto
+world for open source development on both technical and economic issues.
 
 HIPs serve several primary functions:
+
 - To make architecture changes
 - To make economic and token changes
 - To address cheating and security issues
 - To address meta-governance
 
 HIPs are not:
+
 - Funding requests to The Helium Foundation
 - Foundation treasury management
 
-* **How do I submit a HIP?**: Open a 'pull request' in the HIP repository. DO NOT create an 'issue'. Your pull request signifies a HIP in draft status. HIPs in draft status should be discussed in #hip-general in the [Helium Official Community](https://discord.gg/uTauMaJ2We). Draft HIPs will be addressed and managed by HIP editors. Please be sure to answer all of their questions appropriately. HIPs that do not work with HIP editors are seen as incomplete and are likely to be closed. Once your HIP is clear and has met all HIP requirements, HIPs are then open for deeper discussion with their own channels in the Official Helium Community. HIPs move to a vote after rough consensus that this HIP is appropriate for the community to vote on. There is never a guarantee your HIP will receive a channel or move to a vote.

+# What is Helium?
+
+<img className="docsheader" src={useBaseUrl('img/home/blockchainicon.png')} />
+
+Helium Network is a decentralized, blockchain-backed wireless network project that leverages LoRaWAN
+technology. It incentivizes individuals and organizations to set up and manage wireless networks
+through token rewards. Currently, Helium integrates with 5G networks, using the Solana blockchain as
+its foundation. The network's primary utility token is HNT, supplemented by IOT and MOBILE tokens
+which facilitate the operation of LoRaWAN and 5G networks.
+
+> In essence, the Helium network offers a decentralized, distributed system of Hotspots that
+> eliminates the need for traditional internet service providers and centralized authorities that
+> monitor your activity and levy costly fees.
+
+---
+
+By joining the Helium network, you not only gain access to affordable connectivity but also have the
+opportunity to be rewarded for participating as a miner on their network. Helium is just trying to
+build a better future for the newer generation well watch this
+[video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vx9YyS7-d3g).
+
+An interesting aspect of Helium is its exemplary use of blockchain technology in real-world
+applications as a DePIN project. DePIN, short for Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks,
+leverages decentralized technology for practical applications such as street mapping, rendering
+power, cab-hailing services, and more.
+
+Helium's focus is on enhancing wireless networks through a growing collection of user-owned
+hotspots. These hotspots enable communities to improve their internet and cell coverage
+independently of traditional telecom companies. Helium employs a unique consensus algorithm known as
+Proof-of-Coverage (PoC) in its subnetworks.
+
+<img src={useBaseUrl('img/migration/migrationheader.png')} />
+
+On April 18, 2023, Helium transitioned from its independent blockchain network to the Solana
+blockchain. Read More about the [Solana Migration](/solana/migration). This significant move
+represents one of the largest layer 1 blockchain migrations to date, bolstering the expansion of the
+world's largest decentralized wireless network. Helium's migration to Solana could potentially
+stimulate growth across the entire DePIN sector.
+
+> As Daly explains, "Helium really represents the first DePIN business that things could be built on
+> top of." This is just the beginning. Solana's interoperable ecosystem, coupled with its low costs
+> and scalable innovations such as compressed NFTs, could pave the way for new, decentralized,
+> community-run infrastructure for businesses and users.

+## Helium Network Components
+
+**Solana Blockchain:** The underlying blockchain infrastructure that provides security, scalability,
+and decentralization for the Helium Network.
+
+**HNT Token:** The native token of the Helium Network, which is used to incentivize network
+participants and facilitate transactions.
+
+**IOT Token:** A token specific to the LoRaWAN network, enabling low-power, wide-area network
+connectivity for Internet of Things (IoT) devices. PoC is employed for the LoRaWAN subnetwork.
+
+**MOBILE Token:** A token specific to the 5G network, facilitating high-speed mobile connectivity
+and data transmission. PoC is employed for the 5G subnetwork.
+
+Through these components, the Helium Network is revolutionizing the network industry in web3 using
+solana blockchain.
+
+## Network Participants
+
+**Hotspot Owners:** Individuals or organizations that deploy and maintain Helium-compatible wireless
+devices (Hotspots) to provide network coverage.
+
+**IoT Device Owners:** Users of IoT devices that leverage the Helium Network for connectivity.
+
+**Mobile Device Users:** Users of mobile devices that access the 5G network through the Helium
+Network infrastructure.
+
+**Developers:** Individuals or organizations that build applications and services using the Helium
+Network infrastructure.
+
+## Key Features
+
+**Decentralized Infrastructure:** The Helium Network allows for the creation and maintenance of a
+distributed wireless network by incentivizing participants to contribute resources and share the
+benefits.
+
+**Scalable and Secure:** The Helium Network leverages the Solana Blockchain, which is known for its
+high scalability, low latency, and robust security.
+
+**Multi-Use Case Support:** The Helium Network supports various use cases, including IoT devices
+through the LoRaWAN network and high-speed mobile connectivity via the 5G network.
+
+**Incentivized Participation:** The Helium Network employs a token-based system to reward
+participants and encourage network growth.
+
+**Proof-of-Coverage (PoC):** A unique consensus algorithm employed by the LoRaWAN and 5G
+subnetworks, which rewards participants for verifying wireless network coverage.
