We’ll do a side-by-side analysis of ANYONE and Helium, as they’re both underpinned by network and infrastructure technologies.
Afterwards, we’ll take a peek at the global VPN market cap and forecast what’s in store for ANYONE.
ANYONE’s circulating token supply is approximately half of that of Helium.
Helium hit its highest price on November 13, 2021, peaking at $55.22 USD. When we compare circulating supply and the all-time high, this implies that ANYONE has the potential to climb to approximately $107.80 if we’re expecting the same market cap.
This is a quick and straightforward calculation you can conduct on your own. (Note: We’ve utilized the most recent supply number available on CoinMarketCap for Helium, not the figure from November 2021).
There are additional factors to account for that could significantly drive this number higher.
ANYONE already has 74% of its total token supply distributed, versus Helium which only has 65% distributed. It’s a known fact that the larger the number of tokens on the market, the greater the potential for sell pressure on the price.
ANYONE has a substantially smaller amount of free/available tokens that could create sell pressure (around 40 million fewer). The sell pressure ANYONE is currently under is mostly from early investors taking profits to balance their accounts, this can be seen reviewing the wallets on Etherscan, most purchased tokens 100 days ago.
Once these early investors have rebalanced their portfolios, we can expect ANYONE’s price to resume its upward trajectory.
ANYONE’s total token supply is significantly less than Helium’s by a factor of 2.23x, or 123 million fewer tokens. Reflecting on Helium’s trajectory, its downfall was triggered by the mismatch between mining rewards and initial token distribution, which wasn’t balanced or tied to hardware sales.
The Helium network subsequently hit a Device vs Investor saturation point where the sales and deployment of hardware couldn’t keep up with the selling pressure from mining rewards on the open market. This imbalance led to a persistent dump of tokens and a decrease in price, with Helium standing at $1.57 USD as of July 18, 2023.
Furthermore, Helium’s network became overly saturated with nodes due to the lack of control in their deployment, leading to some areas having 70-100 nodes in a single building, and thus, the operation of a node became unprofitable. These issues could have been avoided had the Helium network founders taken preventive measures and tied their hardware sales directly to the rewards.
The ANYONE project has done this. Hardware sales contribute to rewards, further fueling growth and expansion.
The LoRa / Lorawan Market
While considering ‘real-world application,’ Helium’s model was greatly speculative. Even though global communication carriers noticed the LORAWAN network, most didn’t fully commit due to the lack of wide necessity in 2021.
The VPN Market
In contrast, ANYONE is constructed on the same technology that hosts the TOR network, a competitor to the VPN market. TOR is currently utilized to secure global networks. Potential mainstream investors could be VPN providers, concerned about ANYONE encroaching on their market share, a situation they can’t control since TOR is free and its expansion is only constrained by network performance (speed). As ANYONEis incentivising the deployment of nodes for its own ANYONE Network, it will not be restricted by the same limitations experienced on the TOR network. As ANYONE deploys nodes, network performance will significantly improve, making it a direct competitor to VPN operators.
Global Market Caps – Helium
The Helium project rose to a market cap of 5 billion dollars, an insane number and major cause for concen as the entire global LORAWAN market cap reported by Global Market Insights was only 2 billion dollars. This project was deeply oversold.

Global Market Caps – VPN
On the other hand, ANYONE operates in the VPN sector, which had a global market cap of 44.6 billion in 2022, according to Statista. Predictions indicate this market expanding to 77.1 billion in 2026, only 2.5 years away. The substantial growth potential of the ANYONE Protocol is evident. We have detailed a table showing the potential price impact of capturing part of the Global VPN Market cap.

We expect ANYONE to capture $10 very quickly, timeline of Heliums growth below:
Keep in mind for Helium this was all speculation, no real world use.
Historical bull markets play a significant role in evaluating the potential peak of ANYONE. Consider the price evolution of BTC:
If ANYONE follows similar market trends, as many cryptocurrencies tend to, and the whole market shifts into a bull phase, we could expect this to exponentially propel ANYONE’s price.
The growth of the ANYONE Protocol will mirror that of Helium, with progress being fueled by the sale of hardware relays.
It’s noteworthy that ANYONE hasn’t yet experienced the phase of hardware sales where both the reduced supply, as outlined in point 1, and the smaller distribution mentioned in point 2, could significantly bolster the token’s price, particularly if hardware purchases are made directly using the ANYONE token.
This would drive up the demand for ANYONE tokens, and with only 26 million tokens readily available on the blockchain, we can anticipate a significant surge in price.
When assessing the potential and utility of Helium’s HNT token compared to the ANYONE token, it becomes clear that the ANYONE project offers significantly greater feasibility and flexibility.
The HNT token was primarily limited to two uses:
Hotspot Hosts and Operators: Although hotspot operators once received HNT as a reward, on the newly adopted Solana blockchain, they now earn network-specific tokens like IOT or MOBILE for deploying and maintaining network coverage. These tokens can then be exchanged for HNT.
Enterprises and Developers: These users leveraged the Helium Network to connect devices and build IoT applications. Data Credits, utility tokens pegged to the USD and derived from HNT through burn transactions, were used to cover transaction fees for wireless data transmissions on the network.
Contrastingly, the ANYONE token’s utility appears much broader. Despite being in the early stages, the ANYONE team has laid out a comprehensive tokenomic roadmap that demonstrates the diverse ways the ANYONE token will be used in transactions and operations and inside the ANYONE ecosystem:
Given the multitude of uses for the ANYONE token, it’s evident that the token usage will be considerably higher than that of Helium, indicating promising potential and a solid foundation for future growth.
Again if we compare HNT to ANYONE, HNT managed to secure listings on numerous high-volume centralized exchanges such as Coinbase, Bitmart, OKX and previously Binance, which is the primary source of its trading volume. However, its recent delisting from Binance due to alleged failure to meet necessary standards has triggered a significant drop in its value. If HNT faces additional delistings, it may see its trading value plunge below $1.
As a direct comparison, ANYONE has already achieved an impressive market capitalization, despite its ‘almost zero’ presence on centralized exchanges. This could be interpreted as a strong indicator of the heightened interest in ANYONE, suggesting its value could potentially multiply by 10 to 100 times upon listing on a single major exchange.
