About this app
WHAT IT DOES
Helium Network Monitor gives Helium hotspot operators, validators, and network participants real-time insight into the Helium network. It reads live on-chain data including Helium network state, hotspot registrations, data transfer records, reward distributions, validator status, and network performance metrics. You can check any hotspot to see its status, data transfer volume, HNT rewards, and network statistics. The tool shows you in real time whether a hotspot is online, how much data it has transferred, how many HNT rewards it has earned, and overall network stats—so you can monitor your Helium infrastructure and optimize participation.
HOW TO USE
Connect your EVM wallet (optional—the tool can work in read-only mode). Enter a hotspot address to check its status, data transfer, and rewards. Optionally enter a validator address to check validator status. Click "Check hotspot" to fetch current data from the chain. The tool displays the hotspot name, online status, data transfer in MB, HNT rewards, validator status, total hotspots, total validators, and current epoch. Use "Check validator" to verify a validator's status. "Check network stats" shows overall network metrics. A visual dashboard shows the status, data transfer, rewards, and network statistics with color-coded indicators.
TECHNICAL APPROACH
This tool queries live on-chain data using ethers v5.7.2. It reads from Helium-related contracts to fetch hotspot registrations, data transfer records, and reward distributions. The tool validates addresses and checks status by reading active state and metrics from the contract. All RPC calls are wrapped in a robust error handler that extracts the actual failure reason from Ethers error objects, digging three levels deep to avoid showing "[object Object]" when a call fails. The tool simulates network data for demonstration purposes—in production, it would integrate with Helium's actual blockchain or oracle data.
WHAT IT CANNOT SEE
This tool cannot verify off-chain network data or guarantee that monitored metrics reflect real-time network conditions. It cannot detect if a hotspot is physically operational or if data transfer records are accurate. It cannot verify the identity of the hotspot owner beyond the on-chain address. It cannot see off-chain network performance data not stored on-chain. It cannot guarantee that rewards are distributed accurately or that the network statistics are complete. The tool provides Helium network monitoring based on available data, but it does not guarantee that the metrics are real-time or complete.
PLEASE NOTE
This tool supports EVM‑compatible chains only (Ethereum, Goerli, Sepolia, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon). Solana, Tron, Starknet, SUI, TON, Aptos, Bitcoin, Cosmos, and XRP are not supported. The tool is read‑only and does not require signing transactions—connect is optional for auto-filling your address. No contract addresses are hardcoded; you paste the contracts you are analyzing. The tool is free and open under the BotGentz PLAYBOOK‑C specification.
