In this video, I have explained how the reward scale of your Helium hotspot is determined and the possibilities of improving it under different scenarios. I have talked in great detail about hexagons at different resolutions and why sometimes your hotspot is scaled down without apparent reasons. The first part of the video gives a quick answer whereas the second part goes deeper into the algorithm. I have also answered a few common questions like how the reward scale affects one's earning towards the end of the video.
