# Roam

> Roam the World, Connect the People

Roam allows users to connect to WiFi networks in a decentralized way, providing an alternative to traditional internet access.

Roam offers a way for users to connect to WiFi through decentralized networks, bypassing the need for conventional internet providers. It uses a network of independent connections, ensuring privacy and reducing reliance on centralized systems. Roam provides a method for accessing the internet while maintaining user control over their connection and data, creating a distributed approach to WiFi connectivity.

## Assets

- [Roam Points](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Roam): Roam Points are reward tokens earned through network participation activities including check-ins at WiFi hotspots, adding WiFi locations, hosting Roam miners, and referrals that can be converted into ROAM tokens. They are used to accumulate value within the Roam ecosystem, with users earning points for each check-in at WiFi locations and various in-app activities. Points can be burned for ROAM tokens, which can be staked and used for community governance within the decentralized WiFi network. (Digital Reward Assets)
- [ROAM (ROAM)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/Roam): ROAM is the utility token of Roam's decentralized WiFi network on Solana. It is used for staking rewards, governance participation, and paying for network services like eSIM data and WiFi access. The token implements a Proof-of-Service mining algorithm where users earn rewards by hosting Roam Miner routers that validate decentralized identifiers for WiFi connections, creating incentives to expand global wireless infrastructure.
