Bitcoin Mining Pool CEO to Lead SpaceX’s Historic Polar Spaceflight

Chun Wang, the founder and CEO of the renowned bitcoin mining pool f2pool and blockchain validator firm Stakefish, will lead an unprecedented human spaceflight mission to fly over the North and South Poles, orchestrated by SpaceX.

Announced yesterday, Wang’s role as the ‘commander’ of the Fram2 mission marks a historic first.

SpaceX’s mission details indicate that the flight, lasting between three and five days, will feature a diverse crew, including a ‘vehicle pilot’ and a ‘mission specialist’ with notable expertise in polar exploration, though their space experience is not specified.

The Fram2 mission, named after the ship of the Norwegian expedition that reached the South Pole in 1911, aims to achieve this pioneering journey.

Despite the mission’s name resembling that of Wang’s mining operation, there is no direct connection between the two.

However, some crypto observers, like Truth Labs, have noted a resemblance to FRAM JPEG Capital, which was involved in various high-profile exploits.
