In this episode, Anshal Saad and new co‑host Mike Dano discuss the winding down of the 5G Americas trade group as a signal that the industry is moving beyond the 5G lull toward 6G. They highlight Samsung and Korea Telecom's record 6G trial achieving 3 Gbps in the 7 GHz band, and explore how 6G will likely rely on new mid‑band spectrum and technologies like sidelink. The conversation then shifts to a recent Ookla report showing that 5G standalone (SA) networks improve battery life by up to 22% compared to non‑standalone (NSA) deployments, underscoring the practical benefits of SA. Finally, Mike introduces "kinetic tokens," a novel concept from T‑Mobile’s John Saw that ties network usage to tokenized incentives, hinting at new business models for telecom operators.
