Blockchain Goes Galactic: The Crypto Revolution You Didn’t Know You Needed!

As if the world of crypto wasn’t already a cocktail of digital currencies and NFTs, it’s now off to the races with blockchain technologies stretching their tentacles into areas like digital identity verification and, because why not, telecommunications. Who knew the blockchain could be so ambitious? 💸💫

Ahead of the Token2049 event in Dubai (the glamorous crypto fiesta everyone’s pretending they understand), CryptoMoon caught up with some illustrious individuals: Stuart Gardner, the CEO of Spacecoin, Tae Oh, the founder of Spacecoin, and Terrence Kwok, the head honcho at Humanity Protocol. Their mission? To chat about how blockchain is sprucing up various industries like an AI-infused party planner. 🍾🚀

Whether it’s dealing with the inevitable apocalypse of AI-driven fake personas or bringing Wi-Fi to places that can’t even spell “connectivity,” these guys are using blockchain to solve all the problems. Just… all of them. 🌍🔗

Digital Identity Verification: Because AI is Coming for You (and it’s Super Good at It)

AI has done what it does best—making life easier and yet, in the same breath, turning everything into a potential nightmare. While it’s nice to have Siri predict your pizza toppings, it’s equally not so nice to have AI-generated deepfakes convincing you that your mom has suddenly become a TikTok star. 🧐🎭

Kwok, who’s clearly seen a few things in his life, pointed out that just two years ago, the idea of needing to prove you’re human was laughable. Fast forward to today, and proving you’re not a robot is practically a full-time job. Sure, you can no longer trust your eyes when looking at a video or a document. AI can now make a convincing fake proof of address or bank statement in seconds. It’s like the internet’s version of a magic trick—if magic tricks made you question your reality. 🧙‍♂️💻

And if you thought it couldn’t get worse, think again. Robots are coming for our jobs too. Tesla’s humanoid robots are already practicing their human impressions on social media. It’s all part of the grand scheme of having robots do the things you didn’t want to do anyway (like show up at the family reunion). 🤖🎉

Kwok, in his infinite wisdom, explained that blockchain is the only hope we have left to verify who is real and who is a digital imposter. The Humanity Protocol is here to make sure you’re not scammed by a rogue AI pretending to be your dad. Thanks, blockchain. 🛡️

Decentralized Satellites: Because Who Wants to Rely on Big Corporations Anyway?

Meanwhile, back on Earth, another group of blockchain heroes is making satellites decentralized. The current satellite internet scene is like a corporate oligopoly, where only a few big players dominate everything—think Starlink and Amazon, with a side glance from the EU and China. The rest of the world? Well, they’re stuck trying to get a signal while waiting for Elon Musk to throw them a bone. 😬🌍

Enter Spacecoin, with a plan that’s more ambitious than a toddler’s birthday wish list: A fleet of nanosatellites in space, each owned by different people or entities. It’s the ultimate decentralized network. Take that, oligopolies! ✨🌌

Gardner, ever the optimist, shared that Spacecoin’s goal is to open up the space industry to smaller players, or even individuals, who can launch their own satellites and form their own mini-constellations. Who says you need a trillion-dollar corporation to play the satellite game? 🛰️💥

And just to sweeten the deal, they’re integrating blockchain to handle all the payments and data exchange—because who wouldn’t want a little crypto magic sprinkled on top of their space-bound ambitions? 💸🚀
