World Mobile Chain Limited builds decentralised telecom
World Mobile Chain Limited is a company creating a decentralised mobile network designed to increase access to affordable and reliable internet.
The company’s model connects telecom services with blockchain to provide connectivity, secure digital identity, and financial services. Users can operate AirNodes—small local base stations—that extend coverage and reward operators with tokens. By introducing this system, World Mobile aims to lower infrastructure costs, close rural connectivity gaps, and allow communities to play a direct role in maintaining networks.

World Mobile Chain Limited drives innovation in connectivity
World Mobile Chain Limited puts a lot of weight on security and trust. By using the open nature of blockchain, every action and reward can be checked, while digital identity tools built on decentralisation give better protection for personal data. In practice, this means internet access is tied with secure identification, opening doors for people to join financial systems and to use digital services in places that have not had such access before.
Across Africa and in other regions, the telecom sector still faces tough problems. Building networks costs a lot, rural coverage is often missing, and rules can be hard to meet. Large international firms sometimes see little reason to expand into areas that bring low returns. By blending blockchain systems with local effort and telecom know-how, World Mobile Chain Limited is pushing a new way to grow digital networks. The goal is to make internet access cheaper, spread it into rural places, and give communities a real sense of control over their own digital future.
