I think this project is very ambitious. Not only is it ambitious, but has an all star team.
This is definitely a HIDDEN GEM. If you missed ETH then this is your second chance.
It's backed by big names from the industry.

Total Supply : 1,000,000,000
Circulating Supply : 500,000,000
Current Price of SPC : $0.3
If the price does a 10X from here, at $3/SPC the marketcap would stand at, 1.5 Billion $ ( That would put this in top 30 Market Cap Coins )
They have been waiting to launch since a long time.
They are launching a satellite, into space on Feb 2nd 2018.

ECOSYSTEM :
Combined in the SpaceChainOS are fundamentals from the Qtum (Qtum.org) smart contract and SylixOS (sylixos.com). CTO, Jeff Garzik, designed the “blockchain sandbox” to create a stable and well protected infrastructure. Dapps developed in this space can run properly and independently without any interference from one another. This has garnered significant interest from partners in different industries who desire to build their applications on this platform. Ultimately, we can help the Space industry go through the same process as the mobile phone by ‘making smart satellites’ with at least three benefits:
1. Bring blockchain applications to space, enlarge the space market, and integrate aerospace industry resources to make space better serve the earth;
2. Improve spacecraft capabilities, increase number of applications per spacecraft, lower the cost of using satellites, and thus allowing more people to get involved in space industry
3. Provide excellent development environment for space applications by lowering the barriers for developers, and hence encourage more people to participate in space exploration.
