The focus is practical deployment, not theory, with local partners handling ground operations and user support while Spacecoin provides the satellite and network stack.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tThis news follows Spacecoin\u2019s November 28, 2025, launch of three additional satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base, expanding the CTC-1 constellation and moving toward real-time intersatellite communications and seamless handover.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tThe agreements include a transmission license with the Communications Authority of Kenya for satellite IoT monitoring and connectivity expansion, continued work under an existing Nigerian Communications Commission license, collaboration with local partners and agencies to address Indonesia\u2019s archipelago connectivity, and a partnership with Cambodia\u2019s MekongNet to extend satellite-powered internet to rural communities.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tSpacecoin, the world\u2019s first decentralised satellite network powering permissionless global internet connectivity, announced a series of landmark agreements with government authorities, telecommunications providers, and IoT innovators across Africa and Asia. These collaborations mark a major step forward in Spacecoin\u2019s mission to democratize internet access through a blockchain-integrated satellite infrastructure, announced in the wake of the successful launch of three additional satellites on November 28, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tThe agreements, spanning Kenya, Nigeria, Indonesia, and Cambodia, are designed to accelerate the development of decentralised satellite communication systems in regions where terrestrial infrastructure faces economic and logistical limitations.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tAfrica: Transmission license with the Communications Authority of Kenya to deliver satellite IoT monitoring solutions and expand connectivity in underconnected regions. In addition, Spacecoin is building upon its existing license from the Nigerian Communications Commission for its initiative to bring high-speed, low-cost connectivity to rural communities.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tIndonesia: Collaboration with local partners and government agencies to deliver internet access across Indonesia\u2019s 17,000+ islands, addressing the country\u2019s fragmented connectivity landscape.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tCambodia: Strategic partnership with MekongNet, one of the nation\u2019s largest ISPs, to extend market reach by providing satellite-powered internet to rural and underserved populations.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tThese agreements include proof-of-concept demonstrations of decentralised telecommunications infrastructure. Spacecoin will provide the core technology and satellite infrastructure, and work with local partners to oversee ground operations, liaise with local parties, or provide local user support.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tFollowing the success of CTC-0, which transmitted the world\u2019s first end-to-end blockchain message between Earth and space, Spacecoin has now also deployed three CTC-1 satellites in a recent launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The CTC-1 satellites will demonstrate real-time intersatellite communication and seamless handover between satellites, marking another leap toward a fully operational decentralised, open communications network.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tThese agreements signal the beginning of Spacecoin\u2019s move toward a large-scale deployment phase. As additional governments and private-sector organisations express interest, the company aims to extend its footprint across emerging markets where affordable, open connectivity can transform economies and empower communities. With the CTC-1 constellation already in orbit and further collaborations underway, Spacecoin is building real momentum to lead a new era in decentralised communications.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\tTae Oh, Founder<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\tRegulatory bodies in key regions are recognising that decentralised satellite technology can deliver the scalability and affordability traditional infrastructure can\u2019t. These agreements confirm that Spacecoin has moved beyond being just an idea, but a real movement with momentum that will unlock permissionless connectivity through open-sourced satellite technology, powered by people and built for people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; Spacecoin announced strategic agreements with government authorities, telecoms, and industry partners across Africa and Asia to support&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17858,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[63,11223,5895],"class_list":{"0":"post-17857","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-africa","8":"tag-africa","9":"tag-decentralised-satellite","10":"tag-satellite-internet"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17857","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17857"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17857\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17858"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17857"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17857"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17857"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
