I’m not a Pokémon or Animal Crossing guy, but Pokopia has hooked me

Last week, I wrote a feature breaking down Nintendo’s early 2026 games lineup, and I was pretty positive about it. From first-party fare like Mario Tennis Fever and Super Mario Bros. Wonder‘s Bellabel Park Switch 2 expansion to significant third-party ports like Resident Evil Requiem and Pragmata, it’s quite well-rounded. But there was one other game I checked [...]

WISeKey's WISeSat Schedules Launch of Its 21st LEO Satellite with SpaceX from California for March 2026

WISeKey's WISeSat Schedules Launch of Its 21st LEO Satellite with SpaceX from California for March 2026 WISeSat Teams with SEALSQ and SEALCOIN.AI for an Exceptional Opportunity to Accelerate Its Vision for the Space Quantum Internet, Delivering Quantum-Secure, High-Speed, Low-Latency Broadband Directly to Users via a Constellation of LEO Satellites Geneva, Switzerland, February 11, 2026 – WISeKey International Holding Ltd ("WISeKey") ((SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ:WKEY), a leading global cybersecurity, blockchain, and IoT company, today announces that its subsidiary WISeSat.Space Corp. ("WISeSat") specialized in space-technology and secure satellite communications for IoT applications is preparing for the launch of its 21st LEO satellite. The launch is currently scheduled for the end of March from California with SpaceX. For this new launch, WISeSat is teaming with two other WISeKey subsidiaries: SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ:LAES), which focuses on semiconductors, PKI, and post-quantum technology products and, SEALCOIN.AI which focuses on decentralized physical internet with DePIN technology and house the development of the SEALCOIN platform. Together, all parties aim to extend previous Proofs of Concept by embedding WISeKey's trusted Root of Trust, with SEALSQ's Post-Quantum chip, and SEALCOIN wallet directly onboard the WISeSat platform, thus accelerating their vision for the space quantum internet, by delivering quantum-secure, high-speed, low-latency broadband via a via constellation of LEO satellites. The satellites also integrate incremental innovations derived from SEALSQ's quantum roadmap, leveraging advances from its partner ecosystem and startup investment program to enhance security, performance, and operational efficiency.This upcoming launch represents the first operational deployment of a new generation of WISeSat satellites, which will progressively populate and modernize its constellation. With an average satellite lifespan of approximately five years, continuous renewal is essential to integrate new technologies, improve performance, and introduce advanced functionalities.The anticipated WISeSat listing on NASDAQ via a business combination with Columbus Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:COLA), a Cayman Islands–based public SPAC, will provide access to capital markets which is expected to significantly accelerate the deployment of the constellation, enabling global, device-to-device secure connectivity. This infrastructure will allow IoT devices equipped with WISeKey and SEALSQ microchips to securely transact tokens directly with Earth-based devices. Over time, quantum-enhanced capabilities will be gradually integrated into the satellite network.WISeSat Satellite Deployment StrategyAs the satellite IoT communications division of WISeKey, WISeSat was created to address the growing demand for secure, real-time connectivity across critical sectors including logistics, agriculture, energy, and infrastructure management. Traditional IoT networks face increasing vulnerabilities, and WISeSat mitigates these risks through a global, satellite-based architecture protected by post-quantum cryptography.Building on the success of previous missions, WISeKey is planning multiple WISeSat deployments throughout 2026, focused on expanding constellation coverage, increasing bandwidth and redundancy, integrating AI-driven analytics for enhanced security monitoring ...Full story available on Benzinga.com
