Summary

This HIP outlines the onboarding fee structure for two new device types: "Indoor WiFi APs" and "Outdoor WiFi APs". The proposed onboarding fees are designed to be approximately 10% of the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of the devices (please see below for specifics). The fees consist of a combination of HNT derived data credits and MOBILE tokens. It is expected that future devices of different classes will follow a similar pricing structure based on their respective MSRP.
