Another 24 to orbit. Congrats to the Starlink team! 🛰️
At Spacecoin, we're building toward the same sky from a different angle, and it's worth explaining what that angle actually is: open-source satellite designs.
Most people hear "open source" and think it's a technicality. It is more than that. It’s a way of building that is inclusive.
Think about Linux. It's open, so anyone can build on it without asking permission, and that's exactly why it quietly ended up running most of the internet's servers and, as the base of Android, most of the world's phones.
Nobody owns the foundation, so everybody builds on it.
That's the idea we're bringing to space. By open-sourcing our satellite designs, a government, a telco, or an individual operator can build on the same foundation we do, instead of only renting access from a single provider.
An open base layer for space, rather than a closed one.
The part that makes it real is blockchain. Open design means anyone can contribute and participate in the network.
Put those together and you get something genuinely new: a space economy where the people helping build the network can actually share in it, not just subscribe to it.
Starlink is doing extraordinary things with a closed, vertically integrated model, and it clearly works.
We're exploring the open version.
