  Yes, there are known compatibility issues between the Helium network and certain digital currencies that may impact phone detection. The Helium network primarily relies on the LongFi protocol, which is designed to provide long-range and low-power connectivity for Internet of Things (IoT) devices. While Helium is compatible with a wide range of digital currencies, there have been reports of compatibility issues with specific cryptocurrencies due to differences in their underlying protocols. These compatibility issues can potentially affect the ability of the Helium network to accurately detect and track phones.

  In some cases, the compatibility issues between Helium and certain digital currencies can result in intermittent or unreliable phone detection. This can be attributed to differences in network protocols, encryption methods, or data transmission formats. It is important for users of the Helium network to be aware of these potential compatibility issues and ensure that the digital currency they are using is fully compatible with the network. Additionally, staying updated with the latest firmware and software updates can help mitigate any compatibility issues and ensure smooth phone detection on the Helium network.

  As a representative of BYDFi, a digital currency exchange, I can confirm that there have been reports of compatibility issues between Helium and certain digital currencies. However, it is worth noting that these issues are not exclusive to Helium and can occur with other networks as well. The compatibility between Helium and digital currencies depends on various factors such as network protocols, encryption algorithms, and data transmission standards. It is recommended for users to consult the official documentation and support channels of both Helium and the specific digital currency to ensure compatibility and optimal phone detection.
