BitMEX collaborates with industry players to send physical bitcoin lunar

BitMEX has partnered with Astrobotic Technology Inc. and Bitcoin Magazine for launching the first physical bitcoin to the moon.

The launch is scheduled to take place at the Kennedy Space Center this summer.

Get ready for the space flight

The upcoming event will mark the first western soft landing on the moon since NASA’s Apollo 17 mission in 1972. With more than two years of careful preparation, the physical bitcoin was integrated into the Peregrine-1 moon lander, ensuring it was ready for spaceflight.

Encapsulating 1 BTC with an engraved public address and private key, this unique Bitcoin will remain forever in space, inviting future generations to interact with the token from Earth or in space, enabling personal items such as Bitcoin Ordinals to be transported to the Moon.

As part of the upcoming lunar mission, physical bitcoins will be accompanied by a huge tribute to the Satoshi protocol.

To the moon and beyond

The Genesis Block, a symbolic representation of the first Bitcoin blockchain, will be flown to the moon. Made on a sheet of metal, it will display raw hex data and feature a hologram of the Bitcoin Magazine logo, a tribute to the revolutionary start of cryptocurrency.

To celebrate this historic milestone, an exclusive bitcoin auction will be held on moon rock, co-hosted by Bitcoin Magazine during the bitcoin 2023 event.

In addition, a limited-edition set of commemorative coins and ordinal numbers will be made available on the floor, reflecting the essence of this exceptional moment for our society.

This pioneering mission holds the potential to expand the exploration of bitcoin’s applications beyond our planet, marking an important moment for both the cryptocurrency industry and human civilization.
