Could you elaborate on the mechanism behind how hotspots actually accrue helium tokens? I'm curious to understand the process in more depth. Is it based on the number of transactions facilitated through the hotspot? Does the hotspot's location or network coverage play a role? Perhaps you could break down the earning potential based on factors like hardware specifications, network participation, and proof-of-coverage. I'd appreciate any insights you can provide to help me grasp how these tokens are awarded and accumulated by hotspot operators.
