     The PKT Mini - Something I've been working on for the past 6 months - is now available for pre-sale.

     Simply put:
     1. Turn it on
     2. It creates a wifi captive portal your neighbors can use
     3. Their traffic is all routed through a VPN server, they're not using your IP address
     4. They can pay for a speed boost (basic usage is free) and you get paid in PKT
     5. Exchange PKT on Bitmart
     
     Why:
     When everybody is buying internet access from one company, anybody can be summarily turned off. We need to get to a place where no one person can control people's ability to communicate. Little steps.
     
     What's PKT:
     World's first bandwidth-hard PoW blockchain. Mining requires sending a lot of data across the internet. Artificial demand for bandwidth makes people install more fiber. Bitcoin-like, 6bn coins will ever be mined, 10% decrease of payout per 100 days, https://pkt.cash/
     
     Yeah but ____ already does this:
     Good! More ideas the better. But there has to be some reason they have not taken over the internet. Small solutions are nice but they don't solve big problems.
