Launched in 2018, WiCrypt enables individuals to easily access WiFi by downloading their app and sharing their mobile device’s connection or utilizing a specialized WiCrypto hotspot creator device. This device can be customized to include surveys, ads, and the capability to gather customer data.
Wicrypt empowers users with the ability to mine Wicrpyt Network tokens ($WNT), while sharing high-speed internet access with their guests, customers, or community for free, or at whatever rates they decide.
With the dual SIM feature, users can switch between internet service providers seamlessly and conveniently for high-speed connection. Wicrypt devices allow users to move between mobile and fiber network providers easily.
Users also get the opportunity to mine Wicrypt Network Token (WNT) in every internet session. Hosts can enjoy the opportunity to earn WNT when clients connect to their network over a period of time.
Connected devices in the WiCrypt network are uniquely represented by NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) linked to the blockchain. All data transmitted through these devices is instantly reflected on the blockchain via the corresponding NFTs on the WiCrypt block explorer.
Notably, Wicrypt explorer is a robust architecture coverage map with a dynamic and innovative purpose that allows wicrypt users to see on the map Wicrypt hotspots near them so that they connect and enjoy.
The blockchain company is backed by the Nigerian Communications Commission, and partners with Swifta, ArewaTechHub, Africa50, KopasAid, the Enugu state government, and Vnts, amongst others.
Presently, Wicrypt’s decentralized physical infrastructure network comprises nearly 1,100 hotspots distributed across over 30 countries. These hotspots cater to over 45,000 accounts and facilitate the transmission of over 895 terabytes of data.
