🚀🤯 Satellite Soars into the Stratosphere: Wingbits Aims to Outdo Flight Tracking Giants! 🚀
What to know:
- Wingbits, a blockchain-powered aviation data network, is launching a satellite with Spire Global on SpaceX’s Transporter-13 mission.
- The satellite will cross-check flight data provided by the DePIN project’s 2,200-plus ground-based nodes to prevent spoofing and enhance accuracy.
- The data provided by enthusiasts across 90 countries helps Wingbits compete with FlightAware and Flightradar24.
In the realm of the heavens, where the winds whisper secrets to the trees, Wingbits, a fledgling aviator, soars into the stratosphere with a satellite of its own. 🌠 This Swedish startup, fueled by the power of blockchain, is about to take on the giants of flight tracking – FlightAware and Flightradar24. 💥
As the Transporter-13 mission, courtesy of SpaceX, prepares to launch from Vandenburg Space Force Base in California, Wingbits’ CEO and co-founder, Robin Wingardh, spoke of the satellite’s significance during Consensus Hong Kong. 🌏 “It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no, it’s a satellite!” Wingardh exclaimed, “Our satellite will complement our 2,200-strong on-the-ground node network, managed by flight enthusiasts worldwide. The decentralized physical infrastructure network, or DePIN, project rewards data providers with Solana testnet tokens. Ah, the sweet taste of tokens!” 😏
Wingbits already boasts a global network of data contributors from over 90 countries, tracking some 120,000 unique flights daily. 🌍 With its reward system, which allows tokens to be exchanged for air miles, airport lounge access, and other services, Wingbits aims to create a worldwide network of enthusiasts. 🌈
But, alas, there’s a dark force lurking in the skies – “spoofing.” 🕵️♂️ Wingbits’ satellite will cross-check flight data from the DePIN project against data from the satellite, ensuring its information is more accurate than its competitors’. 💯 The company recently closed a second seed round for $5.6 million from Borderless Capital, Bullish Capital, and others. 💸
