SPWAY Launches 57 Years After Apollo 11
A launch date chosen to connect one historic opening in human exploration with the next era of commercial space participation.
SPWAY is scheduled to launch exactly 57 years after the Apollo 11 lunar module landed on the Moon and humanity took its first steps on another world.
Apollo 11 demonstrated what could be accomplished when innovation, vision and determination came together around a bold mission. SpaceWay builds upon that legacy by creating a new way for people around the world to participate in the next era of commercial space.
On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 opened the door to human exploration of another world. Fifty-seven years later, we are launching SpaceWay to help open another door, one that allows average people all over the world to experience, participate in and become part of the growing commercial space economy.

- Real-World Ecosystem
A Utility Token Built Around a Commercial Space Ecosystem
Unlike cryptocurrencies that use space-related names or imagery without a direct connection to commercial space operations, $SPWAY was created as the utility token of the Waypoint 2 Space ecosystem.
Waypoint 2 Space is a Houston-area commercial space company developing astronaut-inspired Space Experiences, educational programs and commercial spaceflight training.
Waypoint is the only company in the world to hold FAA safety approvals for four spaceflight training programs designed to train:
- The general public
- STEM students
- Crew members
- Spaceflight participants
SpaceWay is not a token that was created first and then given a space-themed story. It was built around an established commercial space company, a defined ecosystem and real-world programs that people will be able to experience.

- Planned Utility
Planned Real-World and Digital Utility for SPWAY
SPWAY is designed to connect token holders with real-world and digital utility throughout the expanding Waypoint 2 Space ecosystem.
Planned SPWAY Uses
Astronaut-inspired Space Experiences
Commercial spaceflight training programs
Memberships and loyalty rewards
VIP events and exclusive access
STEM and educational programs
Merchandise, services and future partner offerings
Additional utility introduced as the ecosystem expands
- Space Experience Center
Connecting Digital Utility With a Real-World Space Destination
Planned square feet
Waypoint 2 Space is developing a planned 35,000-square-foot Space Experience Center in the Houston area near NASA’s Johnson Space Center.
Current capital raise
The company is currently raising $10 million to advance the development of its first center.
Connected ecosystem
Immersive public experiences, astronaut-inspired activities, STEM education, corporate programs and FAA-approved commercial spaceflight training.
Waypoint 2 Space is currently a pre-revenue company focused on raising capital, developing its first facility and expanding the programs and partnerships that will support future operations.
SPWAY is intended to provide a digital participation and utility layer connecting people with Waypoint 2 Space programs as the company moves through development and into operations.
- A New Category
SPWAY Introduces a New Category of Utility Token
The cryptocurrency market includes projects that reference satellites, planetary exploration, space data, space-themed entertainment and other space-related concepts.
However, Waypoint 2 Space has not identified another utility token created to support the complete ecosystem of real-world commercial human-spaceflight training and Space Experiences.
For that reason, the company is introducing SPWAY as the world’s first commercial space utility token.
- Utility, Not Imagery
More Than a Space-Themed Cryptocurrency
The distinction is central to the SpaceWay model. SPWAY is not intended merely as a cryptocurrency associated with the idea of space.
It is designed to deliver utility connected to:
- Commercial spaceflight preparation
- Immersive Space Experiences
- Education
- Memberships
- Rewards
- Future commercial partnerships
As private companies expand humanity’s access to space, Waypoint 2 Space believes blockchain technology can provide new ways for individuals to engage with the industry long before they personally travel beyond Earth.
- Why July 20
Why SPWAY Is Launching on the Apollo 11 Anniversary
Apollo 11 landed on the Moon on July 20, 1969, before astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on another celestial body.
Waypoint 2 Space selected the July 20 launch date to recognize the legacy of Apollo while emphasizing the transition from an era in which only a select few could participate in spaceflight to a future in which commercial companies can make space-related experiences more accessible to the public.
Apollo inspired the world to look up. SpaceWay is designed to give people a meaningful way to take part in what comes next.
