But it is more like a backbone link for remote areas rather than a direct uplink to make transactions.

I wonder what their strategy has been around launching satellites, and if they need to be single purpose built. Building and launching satellites can be a very expensive endeavor. I wonder if they could partner with a company like Globalstar, which already has something like 24 state-of-the-art, LEO satellites already in orbit. Globalstar (GSAT) also has an exclusive license on a good slice of spectrum in the 2.4Ghz band (11.5 MHz of spectrum between 2483.5 MHz and 2495 Mhz), and was working on a deal for terrestrial wi-fi.

I might be wrong but I don't think they have been "launching" any satellite but using transponders of already in orbit satellites. So yes, it is just a matter of deals.

This will be a Fiat race tomorrow. In Europe today is public holiday so no banks are working. I´am expecting loads of money flooding the exchanges tomorrow  
This would be a nice dip to buy...

Where in Europe? no public holiday here in the Netherlands.

I guess it´s Austria, Germany, France, Italy, switzerland and Belgium at least...

Germany has only "regional" holidays in 2 of 16 states.

Catholic countries have holiday, protestants not, so Belgium plus the south.

Look up BitSat. That idea is from 2014/15.

Oh gotcha. Yeah makes sense. Such amazing genius and talent over there at Blockstream!

So what has Roger Ver's camp been dreaming up to expand Bitcoin into the future? Oh yeah, that's right. Changing a single config line in the code to 8mb and calling it revolutionary.

/facepalm

There's this new altcoin named fiat, I heard they take it at every store. With such wide acceptance it's a clear winner.

And with an infinite supply it assures that everyone will have some. Yay!

These aren't radio waves, these are satellite signals

how do you think these magic "satellite signals" work?   smh

Ready to say goodbye to 3k territory?  

[ravenjt]

With a continual stream of forks, there will be an infinite supply of 'bitcoins' as well

Hello again $4k

Already back above 4000$ at finex. Could you guys please tell them to stop rising...

In the era of Netflix, satellites are not needed as much as in the past for broadcasting TV, so there's plenty of transponders for hire for uses that really take advantage of the fact that they are in orbit. This is one of those usage cases. And it's way cheaper than in the past.

It is dropping because it saw it was to high for it's own good.
With no real improvement for all this increase it had to fall some time.

It doesn't have the inconvenience of needing cold storage. It comes pre-held by trusted 3rd parties.

They'll even let you spend it before you earn it if you pay them compound interest.
