Startup takes new approach to space-based solar power
WASHINGTON â A startup led by a founder of a financial services company is taking a new approach to space-based solar power intended to be more scalable and affordable than previous concepts.
Aetherflux announced Oct. 9 plans to develop and ultimately deploy a constellation of satellites in low Earth orbit that will collect solar power and beam it to Earth using infrared lasers. The company is planning to demonstrate this technology with a small satellite launching by early 2026.
The concept is a departure from many previous concepts for space-based solar power (SBSP), which have involved large arrays in geostationary orbit. Those systems would transmit their power using microwaves to large rectennas on the ground. Such concepts have been studied for more than half a century but have not advanced beyond the drawing board.
The FBI secretly created a coin to investigate crypto pump-and-dump schemes
âWhat the FBI uncovered in this case is essentially a new twist to old-school financial crime,â Jodi Cohen, the special agent in charge of the FBIâs Boston division, said in a statement. âWhat we uncovered has resulted in charges against the leadership of four cryptocurrency companies, and four crypto âmarket makersâ and their employees who are accused of spearheading a sophisticated trading scheme that allegedly bilked honest investors out of millions of dollars.â
Liu Zhou, a âmarket makerâ working with MyTrade MM, allegedly told promoters of NexFundAI that MyTrade MM was better than its competitors because they âcontrol the pump and dumpâ allowing them to âdo inside trading easily.â
An FBI spokesperson told CoinDesk that there was limited trading activity on the coin but didnât share additional information. On a Wednesday press call, Joshua Levy, the acting US attorney for the District of Massachusetts, said trading on the token was disabled, according to CoinDesk.
