IPFS - Interplanetary File System
Heather asked me to not publish that doing, I thought she meant never., but she meant not for awhile. It occurred partially on Skype, part on SMS, and another part of it was over a Skype call. We had a lot of interference on that conversation, so we adapted in real time with Denice relaying the comms. I had all the pieces at one time, even a recording of the Skype telephone, but given disk crashes, several changes of SIM cards, and other computer woes over the years I have no record of it left. Perhaps the galactics or the NSA have a copy but I don't. πππ
Elon Musk tends to call his conventional fuel rocket creations "spacecraft". linguistically its like the difference between ship and raft. "Ships" tends to connote some for longer journeys.
We got word that those accounts were being moved to crypto in Europe. Some of the monetization was in ETF funds, via the "creation units" at the large banks. These mega banks have exclusive franchise on creating exchanged traded funds - and never have to explain where the creation "units" originated because the creation units are never traded, so never audited, the stocks that they bought are traded, and audited. Why are they called creation units? Because they are monetizing what was created and not theirs to own. There was always a dollar to dollar match between the creation unit and the ETF it "bought", which were then traded on the stock markets and lots of people own these ETFs. The trail of FED Reserve funds shifted to Italy in a little known crypto there, they were later transferred to the BIS. In recent years we saw the role out of CBDCs by the BIS, which pretty much completely anonymizes the audit trail as to where the value came from. People. Each human, a unique individual manifestation of the Creator of All. Yet despite CBDC, and their money games, they are energetically still out of compliance with very legal system they operate under and nothing is working for them very well. Banking foremost is about the flow of energy (value current). Central banking is collapsing. Earth block chains are a dumb down version of the galactic commerce distributed ledgers.

Filecoin and Lockheed Martin To Launch IPFS Into Space
The Interplanetary File System (IPFS), a protocol for peer-to-peer file data sharing and storage, is set to live up to its name through a partnership with Filecoin and U.S. space and weapons company Lockheed Martin.
Filecoin, which relies on IPFS, wants to store an IPFS node on one of Lockheed Martin’s spaceships. When the spaceship gets shot into Earth’s orbit, IPFS could use the node as a relay to further decentralize its network, which hosts things like non-custodial domain names and censorship-resistant websites.
Filecoin and Lockheed hope that it will demonstrate the protocol’s usefulness and help power the fledgling space economy. IPFS grabs data from the closest server, so shooting nodes into space could be useful in case astronauts get into NFTs.
“Soon, space will no longer just be a destination. It will be home to the new space economy, independent of Earth. The work we’re doing with Filecoin reinforces an investment in building space infrastructure,” said Joe Landon, a vice president at Lockheed Martin.
The pair will spend the next five months researching the best spaceship to use.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce estimates that investors sank $10B into private space economy last year, totaling one-third of the total for the past decade. Morgan Stanley, the Wall Street investment bank, predicts the space economy will be worth $1T by 2040. George Pullen, the founder of MilkyWayEconomy, a consulting firm, said it’ll be closer to $4T.
Other blockchain companies want a piece of space pie, too.
Paul Chou, co-founder of crypto derivatives exchange LedgerX, is developing a space crypto called Foundation Coin. Its blockchain uses “proof-of-timed-work”, a consensus mechanism that takes into account the speed of light. About half a dozen engineers and developers from from Google, the NSA and NASA are working on the project.
SpaceChain, a Singapore-based project co-founded by Jeff Garzik in 2017, has launched a handful for satellite nodes for another cosmic blockchain.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX plans to launch a Dogecoin satellite into space this year. Geometric Energy Corporation, a partner to the mission, issued four tokens that let holders change the location, luminosity, color, and duration of advertisements displayed from the satellite.
