Planetary Resources' President and CEO Chris Lewicki and General Counsel Brian Israel have joined ConsenSys in connection with the acquisition.

Brian Israel served in the U.S. State Department's Office of the Legal Adviser, where he was responsible for the international legal dimensions of outer space, oceans and international environmental governance matters, and served as U.S. Representative to the United Nations space law body.

Brian Israel said "Ethereum smart contract functionality is a natural solution for private-ordering and commerce in space—the only domain of human activity not ordered around territorial sovereignty—in which a diverse range of actors from a growing number of countries must coordinate and transact."
