SpaceChain today announced that it has successfully demonstrated the first use of blockchain hardware on the International Space Station(ISS), marking the completion of a significant milestone supported by the European Space Agency (ESA) Space Solutions.
The transaction was conducted by SpaceChain co-founder and CTO Jeff Garzik, who said that successfully signing this BTC transaction marks progress toward SpaceChain’s goal of building a secure, open source, and immutable blockchain satellite network.
The multisignature transaction was delivered through a blockchain hardware installed on the ISS – a powerful onboard computer supplied by GomSpace that was designed for state-of-the-art data processing. SpaceChain’s experiments are about ensuring a robust connection between blockchain hardware in space and related infrastructure on Earth.
