- Hedera prepares to launch the WISeSat.Space satellite and forms the trust layer for secure IoT identities.
- Hedera’s proprietary technology is used in numerous global industries, including healthcare, finance and logistics.
Hedera Hashgraph is emerging as a key player in the highly anticipated launch of the WISeSat.Space satellite operated by SpaceX. This event marks a significant milestone in the development of Hedera. The blockchain platform provides the trust structure for the post-quantum identity infrastructure designed to secure the next generation of IoT devices.
Hedera drives WISeSat.Space satellite launch SpaceX an
SpaceX’s WISeSat.Space satellite is scheduled to launch on November 19, 2025 from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. This mission will be the first to test secure post-quantum communications technology, a major step toward protecting the Internet of Things from the coming quantum computers.
Report According to him, the Hedera Hashgraph continues to be the key factor in establishing trust between machines and thus forms the basis for SEALCOIN, the transaction layer in the WISeSat.Space satellite, which represents the main payment load. By leveraging Hedera’s technology, SEALCOIN benefits from a robust trust structure that provides time-stamped proof of health, tamper-proof audit trails, and public verification of device identity.
This ensures safe and reliable machine interactions and facilitates extremely low-cost microtransactions and regulatory control. Hedera focuses on building machine trust rather than speculation, making it an essential part of the machine economy. Hedera focuses on creating trust between machines rather than being the subject of speculation; therefore, it is a very important factor in the machineeconomy.
What is interesting is that the architecture outlines a robust system for secure IoT interactions. The QS1 chip creates quantum secure identity while issuing DIDs and VCs and signing data at the hardware level.
In the meantime, WISeSat.Space is broadcasting the identity and updates worldwide. Hedera Hashgraph provides the trust layer, anchors identity states, secures audit logs, and validates machine interactions. SEALCOIN enables automated IoT payments and facilitates machine-to-machine transactions.
WISeSat.Space IPO
WISeKey International Holding AG has decided to sell its satellite division, WISeSat.Space Corp. through a SPAC combination with Columbus Acquisition Corp. to bring to the stock exchange. The new company, WISeSat Nasdaq, will be listed under the symbol PSFE.
This transaction will strengthen WISeKey’s capital base and accelerate the commercialization of the satellite-based cybersecurity and IoT ecosystem. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2026 and will inject $250 million in equity capital into WISeKey while the company retains a majority stake. Carlos Moreira, founder and CEO of WISeKey, said in a statement,
“We believe that this business combination strengthens our capital base and enables WISeSat to scale from a network of 14 satellites already in orbit to the targeted deployment of 100 more satellites by 2030, thereby strengthening Europe’s technological sovereignty and leadership in secure space systems. We look forward to continuing this journey as we deploy the world’s first quantum secured satellite platform and lay the foundation for trusted digital communications in the coming decades.”
Growing Influence of Hedera Hashgraph in Global Industries
Hedera Hashgraph is quickly evolving from a fast blockchain platform to a core system that many industries rely on for trust and security. Powered by its fast and reliable network and the governance of large global companies, organizations use Hedera to store data that must be secure, verified and tamper-proof. As more industries move to digital services and machine-to-machine communications, Hedera Hashgraph will become an essential network that connects everything in a secure and transparent manner.
For example, Everyware and the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) are using Hedera Hashgraph’s technology to track the temperature and transport of COVID-19 vaccines, enabling tamper-proof records and reducing supply chain failures. In addition, financial institutions such as HSBC, Standard Bank, Shinhan Bank and Nomura Bank are using Hedera for real-time settlement applications and stablecoin pilot projects.
