This drone tracking startup will pay out crypto if you buy its $949 sensor | Fortune
Briefly

"The sensors read the transmitters that every drone manufacturer must include, allowing SkySafe to create a real-time digital interface that shows all the drones in a given radius, as well as who is operating them. Now, it wants you to join in these efforts-and says it will pay you a share of its revenue in the form of crypto tokens."
"To carry out this plan, SkySafe is conducting a pre-sale of its sensors to the public starting today. Those who purchase one for $949 plus tax will receive it by the second quarter of next year, and be able to contribute to a growing network tracking drones in the U.S. that the company is calling FliteGrid. According to the company, installing the sensor is "effortless" and only entails placing it somewhere like a roof or balcony with a clear view of the sky."
SkySafe, a San Diego startup, tracks drones and sells collected data to government agencies, airports, and stadium operators by installing sensors on buildings and other locations. The sensors read the transmitters that every drone manufacturer must include, creating a real-time digital interface that shows drones' locations and operators within a radius. SkySafe is offering a public pre-sale of low-cost sensors for $949 plus tax, delivered by Q2 next year, to expand a network called FliteGrid. Owners install sensors on rooftops or balconies with clear sky view. SkySafe plans to compensate contributors with a share of revenue paid as crypto tokens.
