Lockheed Martin & Filecoin to Explore Hosting Blockchain Nodes in Space

DAVOS, Switzerland — Defense contractor Lockheed Martin (LMT) and the Filecoin Foundation could soon make an open-source blockchain network accessible in space, the two organizations announced Monday at an event hosted by the Filecoin Foundation on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum's annual meeting.

Lockheed and Filecoin plan to identify a satellite or other space-faring platform that can hold the technology to operate an InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) node, identify that platform's needs and try and identify a test mission.
