World Liberty Financial, a company known for its blockchain-driven financial services, has entered into a partnership with Spacecoin to pioneer a combined satellite internet and decentralized finance infrastructure aimed at remote and underserved communities.
This collaboration involves a recently executed token swap that strategically links World Liberty Financial’s blockchain ecosystem with Spacecoin’s satellite network initiatives. The alliance is designed to support innovative payments, settlement methods, and broader financial services for regions without reliable terrestrial internet or traditional banking systems.
Spacecoin has recently launched three satellites into low-Earth orbit, advancing its mission to develop a global decentralized physical infrastructure network called Starmesh. This constellation aims to deliver permissionless, government- and telecom-independent internet connectivity, focusing initially on areas where broadband coverage is limited or nonexistent.
According to Tae Oh, the founder of Spacecoin, “true digital freedom also requires access to robust, fair, and open financial services.” World Liberty Financial’s involvement directly addresses this necessity by expanding blockchain-enabled financial tools accessible through this satellite network.
World Liberty Financial first introduced its USD1 stablecoin last year, a digital dollar-pegged asset that currently commands a market capitalization of approximately $3.2 billion. Beyond the stablecoin, the company has broadened its product suite with World Liberty Markets, a platform facilitating lending and borrowing services embedded in blockchain technology, thereby constructing a comprehensive decentralized financial stack.
Additionally, World Liberty Financial has taken regulatory steps by applying for a national charter with the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency through a subsidiary, World Liberty Trust Company. This move signals the firm's intention to operate within regulated financial institutional frameworks.
The Spacecoin partnership effectively extends these financial and internet services into space. This innovative approach is poised to offer combined connectivity and financial product access to users in geographically isolated locales through a decentralized network, circumventing traditional infrastructure limitations.
The market for satellite internet is anticipated to reach between $8.09 billion and $12.4 billion by 2025, with an expected compounded annual growth rate of approximately 13.62%-17% through 2034. Projections highlight potential expansion up to $33.4 billion to $47.4 billion during this period. Notable initiatives, such as SpaceX’s Starlink and Amazon’s Project Kuiper, are key drivers addressing latency and coverage deficiencies in remote regions worldwide.
Meanwhile, the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector continues to grow rapidly. In the fourth quarter of 2025, DeFi lending platforms collectively held over $50 billion in total value locked (TVL), accounting for nearly 67% of the entire lending market. Industry analysts forecast that integrating satellite internet with DeFi systems could unlock financial markets exceeding $1 trillion by 2030.
This partnership between World Liberty Financial and Spacecoin represents a convergence of decentralized blockchain finance and satellite-based connectivity efforts, targeting a transformative impact on financial inclusion and internet accessibility in underconnected parts of the world.
