Blockstream has put a Bitcoin Node in Space
Blockstream has taken Bitcoin into space. The Blockstream Satellite network broadcasts the Bitcoin blockchain around the world 24/7 for free, protecting against network interruptions and providing anyone in the world with the opportunity to use Bitcoin via the Bitcoin Lightening Network.
Bitcoin in Space: One Small Step for Bitcoin, one large Step for All Mankind.
Blockstream beams the feed to satelite dishes all over the world.
The Bitcoin blockchain from space. No internet required.
The Blockstream Satellite network broadcasts the Bitcoin blockchain around the world 24/7 for free, protecting against network interruptions and providing areas without reliable internet connections with the opportunity to use Bitcoin.
Blockstream Uses Four Satelites
This Provides Coverage for All the Land Masses on Earth
No Internet Required
Bitcoin blockchain to the entire planet via satellite, reducing Bitcoin’s dependency on internet access.
All you need is a satellite dish to receive the data feed, nit the internet. Blockstream even sells Satelite Kits you can assemble and create your own Bitcoin Node, and it comes with an API which allows you to upload transactions to the Bitcoin blockchain.
Everyone in the world now has an opportunity to use Bitcoin.
Bitcoin in Space: One Small Step for Bitcoin, one large Step for Mankind.
Massive Savings
According to Blockstream running Bitcoin Nodes this way provides big cost savings, as Blockstream absorbs all the upfront costs of the satelite rental fees, and the development costs of the project.
By eliminating cost barriers, people can now receive blocks at no cost, which allows more people to utilize Bitcoin and participate in the Bitcoin network.
Network Stability
Now because you don’t need the internet, your Bitcoin Network feed is virtually uninterrupted barring a meteorite storm or ground to space middle attacking the satelite. But earthbound government can block your feed!
Blockstream Satellite provides an alternative method for receiving the Bitcoin blockchain that is not affected by connection failure. This protects users against network interruptions and prevents any full node from becoming isolated or partitioned
Collaborating Articles
Blockstream, a company set up in 2014 by crypto-hacker Adam Back, aims to change that. They announced in 2017 the launch of Blockstream Satellite, a one-way broadcast of blockchain data over four commercial geosynchronous satellites. At the time of the system’s launch, about two-thirds of the landmass of the globe was covered by blockchain broadcasts from on high. As of early 2019, a fifth satellite brought the Asia-Pacific region online, giving access to almost the entire globe. Also added in the 2019 release was an API that allows users to send files to the entire network.

Reality is Stranger or Perhaps More Fantastic then Fiction
Elon Musk has a plan to place satellites in space in orbit around the earth providing everyone on earth WiFi to connect to the internet. The concept of building satellites to beam the internet all over the world for free or greatly reduced prices is neither new or original, but a very practical solution to a global problem. We have arrived at a point in time that such technology, if connected to the Lightening Network would literally mean everyone on the planet could use Bitcoin not just as a universal store of value, but also a uniform unit of exchange.
As you can see, BLOCKSTREAM has several technological achievements in the blockchain space, and their greatest skill is in developing side chains. They were a vital contributor to the development of the Bitcoin Lightning Network via development of the side chain, which was/is the backbone of the Lightening Network. They are partnering with Powerful forces within the cryptosphere to advance Commerce. They are also very invested in development of Non-Fungible Tokens, as a backbone of the development of commerce in video games and beyond.

The history of the Bitcoin, global disruption of the monetary system and financial markets is occurring now. It’s an amazing time to be alive...the future is happening now. Stay informed.

Bitcoin en el espacio: un pequeño paso para Bitcoin, un gran paso para la humanidad.
Blockstream ha puesto un nodo Bitcoin en el espacio
Blockstream ha llevado Bitcoin al espacio. La red Blockstream Satellite transmite la cadena de bloques de Bitcoin en todo el mundo las 24 horas del día, los 7 días de la semana de forma gratuita, protegiendo contra las interrupciones de la red y brindando a cualquier persona del mundo la oportunidad de usar Bitcoin a través de la Red de iluminación de Bitcoin.

La cadena de bloques de Bitcoin desde el espacio. No se requiere internet.
La red Blockstream Satellite transmite la cadena de bloques de Bitcoin en todo el mundo las 24 horas del día, los 7 días de la semana de forma gratuita, protegiendo contra las interrupciones de la red y brindando a las áreas sin conexiones confiables a Internet la oportunidad de usar Bitcoin.

Todo lo que necesita es una antena parabólica para recibir la alimentación de datos, en Internet. Blockstream incluso vende kits de satélite que puede ensamblar y crear su propio nodo de Bitcoin, y viene con una API que le permite cargar transacciones en la cadena de bloques de Bitcoin.
Todos en el mundo ahora tienen la oportunidad de usar Bitcoin.
Grandes ahorros
Según Blockstream, ejecutar Bitcoin Nodes de esta manera proporciona grandes ahorros de costos, ya que Blockstream absorbe todos los costos iniciales de las tarifas de alquiler de satélites y los costos de desarrollo del proyecto.
Al eliminar las barreras de costos, las personas ahora pueden recibir bloques sin costo, lo que permite que más personas utilicen Bitcoin y participen en la red Bitcoin.
Estabilidad de la red
Ahora, debido a que no necesita Internet, su alimentación de la red Bitcoin es prácticamente ininterrumpida, salvo una tormenta de meteoritos o un centro de tierra a espacio que ataque el satélite. ¡Pero el gobierno terrestre puede bloquear tu alimentación!
Blockstream Satellite proporciona un método alternativo para recibir la cadena de bloques de Bitcoin que no se ve afectado por fallas de conexión. Esto protege a los usuarios contra las interrupciones de la red y evita que cualquier nodo completo quede aislado o particionado.
La realidad es más fantástica que la ficción
Elon Musk tiene un plan para colocar satélites en el espacio en órbita alrededor de la tierra, proporcionando a todos en la tierra WiFi para conectarse a Internet. El concepto de construir satélites para transmitir Internet por todo el mundo de forma gratuita o con precios muy reducidos no es nuevo ni original, sino una solución muy práctica a un problema global. Hemos llegado a un punto en el tiempo en el que dicha tecnología, si se conecta a la Red de iluminación, significaría literalmente que todos en el planeta podrían usar Bitcoin no solo como una reserva universal de valor, sino también como una unidad uniforme de intercambio.
Como puede ver, BLOCKSTREAM tiene varios logros tecnológicos en el espacio blockchain, y su mayor habilidad es desarrollar cadenas laterales. Fueron un contribuyente vital para el desarrollo de Bitcoin Lightning Network a través del desarrollo de la cadena lateral, que era / es la columna vertebral de Lightening Network. Se están asociando con fuerzas poderosas dentro de la criptosfera para promover el comercio. También están muy interesados en el desarrollo de tokens no fungibles, como columna vertebral del desarrollo del comercio en videojuegos y más allá. Bitcoin en el espacio: un pequeño paso para Bitcoin, un gran paso para la humanidad.
La historia de Bitcoin, la disrupción global del sistema monetario y los mercados financieros está ocurriendo ahora. Es un momento increíble para estar vivo ... el futuro está sucediendo ahora. Mantente informado.
