every transaction that occurs and each
transaction is validated by a majority of
nodes (or participants) on the network.
Blockchain technology also enables peer-
to-peer exchanges of data to occur without
verification from a centralised authority.
As such, Blockchain technology is uniquely
suited to power VIMANA’s Blockchain
Airspace Network because of its capacity
to validate data using next generation
blockchain infrastructure. Each VIMANA AAV

protocols that communicate with terrestrial
Blockchain Airspace Nodes and thus
ensure the safe and seamless operation of
numerous aircraft. I don’t see why not. At the moment
VIMANA Global is focused on working with
sovereign states to enable flights in national
airspace. International will follow closely on
the heels of these launches.
This VIMANA Blockchain Airspace Network
(VBAN) is in fact a facilities-based high
performance network hosting specialised
blockchain architecture that is constantly
suspended in the air between 150 metres
and the Karman line. By launching it
VIMANA Global enables Earth’s first
truly ubiquitous communications and
transaction infrastructure. How secure is blockchain?
Will blockchain technology
enable unmanned flights to
launch and fly safely in any
international airspace?
In terms of security, there are a myriad
of challenges and furthermore, they
differ depending on whether we are
talking public or private blockchain and
also the blockchain architecture that an
organisation chooses to deploy. Some will
look to integrate existing IT infrastructure
and technology with blockchain while
others might go for a 100% blockchain
driven architecture. As blockchain matures,
and we continue to learn the risks
associated with it, organisations are going
