Intellistake Technologies Corp., a developer of decentralised AI and blockchain infrastructure, has partnered with Orbit AI, a Singapore-based aerospace company developing the Orbital Cloud -- a new form of space-based infrastructure where communication, computation, and verification converge beyond Earth.

The Orbital Cloud combines AI computing (DeStarAI), global connectivity (DeStarlink), and blockchain verification (Intellistake) to create an intelligent satellite network that can process and verify data directly in orbit. By shifting these processes off Earth, the platform removes dependence on centralised data centres, creating a faster, more secure, and censorship-resistant framework for AI systems.

Intellistake intends to provide validator and node infrastructure to secure this system, acting as the blockchain verification layer within Orbit AI's Coordination Layer. This blockchain backbone is designed to enable satellites to authenticate data, coordinate AI workloads, and record verified transactions independently of terrestrial networks.

The partnership positions Intellistake at the intersection of blockchain, AI, and aerospace infrastructure, extending its proven expertise in decentralised technologies to a new frontier. Through its pending acquisition of Singularity Venture Hub, Intellistake combines technical leadership and deep industry resources to execute on large-scale infrastructure projects bridging decentralised AI and traditional enterprise systems.

As AI capabilities expand beyond Earth, secure and autonomous systems are essential. The Orbital Cloud seeks to meet this need by creating an interconnected satellite mesh capable of global AI computation, blockchain verification, and communication in orbit. Intellistake's contribution ensures the network is transparent, trustless, and verifiable -- making it possible for AI systems to run in space with integrity and independence.

According to The Business Research Company, the orbital infrastructure market is projected to expand from $13.5 billion in 2024 to $21.3 billion by 2029. The broader satellite market is forecast to reach $615.7 billion by 2032, while the in-orbit data centres market -- central to Orbit AI's DeStarAI -- is expected to rise from $1.77 billion in 2029 to $39.1 billion by 2035. The satellite data-services market is also forecast to grow from $12.16 billion in 2024 to $55.24 billion by 2034.
