# Mission & Vision

**Mission**

> Make internet connectivity a universal right, not a privilege.

Spacecoin's founder "Captain Tae" shared this in the first message transmitted from the CTC-0 satellite:

> "I created Spacecoin because I believed that billions of people deserved better. The future is decentralized."

**Vision**

Build the standard open protocol for decentralized connectivity infrastructure — connecting everyone, everywhere.

**Core Values**

* **Decentralization**: Infrastructure that is decentralized both physically and operationally
* **Accessibility**: Available to everyone without economic or geographic barriers
* **Transparency**: Network operations verifiable on-chain
* **Openness**: An open network where anyone can participate and contribute
* **Resilience**: Service that never goes down due to any single point of failure
