WISeKey's SEALCOIN to Bring Real-Time Satellite Interactive Experience at Consensus 2026 Hong Kong
- Core Viewpoint: WISeKey subsidiary SEALCOIN will showcase its decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) technology stack, which integrates satellite communications, secure semiconductors, and post-quantum cryptography, at Consensus Hong Kong 2026. The aim is to empower machines with end-to-end secure transaction and autonomous settlement capabilities.
- Key Elements:
- SEALCOIN will host a physical Satellite AIRDROP. Participants will interact with a real-time satellite map and the in-orbit WISeSat satellite to generate proof of interaction and obtain vouchers for claiming future tokens.
- Its technology architecture integrates 19 in-orbit satellites, SEALSQ's secure semiconductors, and post-quantum cryptography to connect physical systems with decentralized networks.
- The company believes the next critical phase for the industry is "execution capability," meaning enabling machines to securely and autonomously conduct transactions and settlements. This is a prerequisite for achieving true automation and physical AI.
- In this model, the $QAIT token is designed to serve as a settlement layer, providing security and incentive mechanisms for machines, satellites, and AI systems, allowing them to become autonomous economic participants.
- The WISeKey Group has deployed over 1.6 billion secure chips, and its technology ecosystem spans multiple fields including IoT security, digital identity, semiconductors, and satellite communications.
February 5th — WISeKey International Holding Ltd ("WISeKey", SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY), a global leader in cybersecurity, blockchain, and IoT, today announced that its subsidiary SEALCOIN — an entity focused on Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) technology and responsible for the development of the SEALCOIN platform — will participate in Consensus Hong Kong 2026. On-site, it will launch a series of interactive activities centered on connecting physical infrastructure with Web3 systems.
Consensus Hong Kong 2026 will be held from February 10th to 12th, 2026, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
SEALCOIN builds a bridge connecting physical networks with digital infrastructure, based on the WISeSat satellite initiative (which has successfully launched 19 satellites to date), combined with secure semiconductor technology and post-quantum cryptography provided by SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES). SEALCOIN's showcase in Hong Kong will focus on demonstrating how these technologies converge into a practical, operational real-world system.
Among them, WISeSat AG specializes in secure satellite communication space technology for IoT applications; SEALSQ focuses on the research, development, and sales of semiconductor, PKI, and post-quantum technology hardware and software products.
On-Site Physical Satellite AIRDROP in Hong Kong
During Consensus Hong Kong, SEALCOIN will host a physical Satellite AIRDROP exclusively for on-site participants.
Participants will interact with operational WISeSat satellites via a real-time satellite map, which will display the satellites' live orbital positions. Participants must capture satellite data within the activity time window to generate proof of interaction with real-world infrastructure, rather than completing online tasks or social media activities.
This AIRDROP aims to visually demonstrate how space-based infrastructure, hardware-level security, and Web3 incentive mechanisms can work together in the real world.
Tokens will not be distributed directly on-site. Participants will receive a redeemable QAIT token claim voucher for a subsequent Token Generation Event (TGE).
Consensus Hong Kong 2026 | SEALCOIN Key Agenda
SEALCOIN team members will participate as speakers and attendees in several flagship events associated with Consensus Hong Kong, including:
February 9th: The Realized Summit
https://luma.com/RealizedSummitHK?tk=KNaNSF
February 11th: Web3 Decentralized Circle
February 12th: Hack Seasons
https://luma.com/hack_hong_kong
February 12th: AI Day – Web3 × NASDAQ-Listed Companies × Family Offices
At these events, SEALCOIN will systematically demonstrate how real-time satellites, secure chips, and cryptographic technology support decentralized applications, AI systems, and real-world use cases.
From Space to Digital Infrastructure
The holistic architecture built by SEALCOIN integrates:
- Real-time satellites in orbit
- Secure semiconductor components
- Future-proof post-quantum cryptography
forming a complete, operational technology stack for connecting physical systems with decentralized networks.
Consensus Hong Kong 2026 will serve as a key milestone for SEALCOIN to showcase this technological convergence to the global Web3 community.
"For years, the core challenge in the industry has been 'connectivity,' and that problem is largely solved," said Jonathan Llamas, Chief Product & Strategy Officer of SEALCOIN. "The next phase is about 'execution.' Machines need to be able to transact securely, settle outcomes, and operate autonomously across both physical and digital environments."
From a broader perspective, SEALCOIN's work reflects a fundamental shift in how digital and physical systems are designed. The next stage of automation is not just about connecting machines and exchanging data, but about enabling machines to conduct end-to-end secure transactions, execution, and settlement without human intervention.
This capability is a key prerequisite for achieving true automation and Physical AI, making the decisions of autonomous systems executable, auditable, and economically settleable.
In this model, $QAIT serves as the settlement layer, providing the necessary security, incentive mechanisms, and utility for machines, satellites, and AI-driven systems to become autonomous economic participants, rather than passive network endpoints.
