Nexus Has Breakout Week As Their Cryptocurrency Satellite Launches Near

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

Nexus, the cryptocurrency partnered with Galactic Sky and Vector Space Systems had a massive week, with its price doubling and its market cap increasing significantly. For months the price stayed anywhere between $3-4, but this week jumped to over $10 and seems to have found a new floor in the range of $12-14.

At the centerpiece of Vector’s vision is a plan to send cube satellites into space that will power a decentralized internet and blockchain that governments or traditional competitors can’t take down.

According to a press release published last month:

“Vector, a nanosatellite launch company comprised of new-space and enterprise software industry veterans from SpaceX, Virgin Galactic, McDonnell Douglas, Boeing, Sea Launch and VMware, today announced a partnership with Nexus to host its decentralized cryptocurrency in space using Vector’s GalacticSky Software-Defined Satellite platform. Nexus will be the first company to deploy a cryptocurrency on a satellite orbiting the earth. This partnership between Vector and Nexus highlights the unique use cases for GalacticSky’s technology and further proves the versatility of the platform. Additionally, the partnership allows future Vector customers to pay for launches using Nexus’ cryptocurrency, NXS.”

The statement noted that, “By hosting NXS in space via GalacticSky, Nexus is no longer tied to a nation-state and can create the backbone for a more decentralized financial ecosystem.”

As Nexus utilizes a satellite virtualization platform through GalacticSky, it can then “distribute its blockchain across multiple satellites, providing it enhanced reliability and performance.” By using “secure cryptocurrency” and a “decentralized peer-to-peer network,” Nexus will grant “greater freedom and transactional transparency for global access to financial services.”

The press release went on to say that:

“With Bitcoin’s valuation at an all-time high, people are beginning to accept cryptocurrency as a real form of payment, but there are still problems with storage and ownership. The capabilities provided by the GalacticSky platform, combined with the flexibility of Vector’s launch model, bring us one step closer to accomplishing our mission of providing the world with a decentralized currency that can be accessed virtually anywhere, anytime.

Over the last year, we’ve made many advancements in order to solidify our standing as a leading nanosatellite launch company. ‘Housing Nexus’ cryptocurrency on our GalacticSky platform not only validates our proof of concept but demonstrates how prolific this opportunity is for startups looking to innovate in space without the need to build their own satellite.”

Really looking forward to Nexus Future :-) Thanks for the great write up!

2018 is looking pretty awesome when I can read about the upcoming launch of technology which will decouple our telecommunications from centralized corporations, and I can read about this on a decentralized blockchain powered blog platform. That's my kind of story!

Nexus is the future and I am encouraging everyone I know to get on board. Great article!

I heard about Nexus a month ago and thought it was an interesting Crypto, should have listened to my friend who told me about it and bought some then. I will look at it on any pullback, it's worth adding to a diversified Crytpo portfolio.

Other than a couple coins I'd been hodl'in for years, it was a friend who kept talking about Nexus that got me to actually take an interest in crypto and learn how to use exchanges/etc... Is a lot for an old salt like me to take in... For some reason I imagined big rockets, but seeing these made sense... Go NXS

Nexus is my favorite so far. I believe this is one that will definitely break 1g a coin. Hodl with this one its a good retirement plan in my opinion.

thanks for the information his friend yes.
