After NFT and tokens: now comes the first moon database

 


The company Lonestar Data Holding wants to transport databases to the moon. The aim is to be able to store and retrieve all the data in the world there. NFT and tokens from the moon are already old school.


The moon will soon not only be populated by humans, but also by databases. At least that's what Steve Altemus, CEO of Lonestar Data Holding, would dream of. NFT and tokens from the moon are almost old school. By 2026, the capacity of the database should be 50 petabytes.


For comparison: Facebook alone produces 4 petabytes of data per day - so the start-up still lacks a lot of capacity for mass use. However, Altemus cannot be stopped in his visionary thoughts :


“It is unthinkable for me that we keep our most important assets, our knowledge and data, on earth. Where bombs fall and fires reign. We need to get our assets off our planet where we can safely store them."


How Lonestar wants to bring the databases to the moon? The company has already signed two contracts with a NASA-affiliated company called Intuitive Machines . Lonestar is allowed to transport software and hardware to the moon on board two rockets. After the tests you want to go online.

The project could fail because of two problems: On the one hand, the moon is known for its incredibly difficult landings, and on the other hand, the surface reaches temperatures between -183 degrees and +106 degrees Celsius . Altemu's answer: He just wants to install the hardware in cavernous lava tubes. The temperature fluctuations are not too high there.


Does that sound too futuristic to you ? Well, that's probably what most of the Diana Blockchain project thought as well. The company now ranks among the top 500 crypto projects with a market capitalization of $107 million .


NFT and tokens for the moon: how should that work?

The Diana company, which has existed since 2019, has already carried out land sales for the moon via a decentralized land register. Using blockchain technology, users are to be entered in the land register as the owner of the parcel they have purchased – they will receive Diana tokens (DIA) for this. The sale of around 4 million parcels took place in 2018/19 for around US$1. With a token price of 0.5 US dollars, the holders have to post a loss.


Another blockchain startup, Luna, is selling lunar parcels as NFTs on the Binance Smart Chain. Users can pay the company with dollars.


How these ventures are to be classified legally is not entirely clear. According to the UN Space Law of 1967, the moon must not belong to any state and is regarded as common property of mankind. Since this regulation does not explicitly include a ban on private individuals, companies see their opportunity there.


The question, however, is what exactly happens when several companies sell land on the moon? What if two private individuals then own the same parcels? Is it all nonsense? Ultimately, you have to decide for yourself whether you think this is awesome or just a rip-off. Maybe Elon Musk will colonize the moon before that – and everyone is just unlucky.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
