The ASX code SCXT is likely a special cross trade for a specific security, where S indicates a special trade, C means cross trade, and XT specifies the type or tier of the special crossing. This type of trade, where a broker buys and sells the same security at the same time for different clients, can result in faster execution at competitive prices. Recent updates have simplified the reporting of special cross trades with the new code SC replacing older codes like S1, S2, and S3 for certain equity trades.
SCXT breakdown
- S: Indicates a "Special" trade, which might be a block trade or a crossing where pre-trade transparency rules are modified under specific conditions.
- C: Stands for "Cross" trade, where the broker executes both the buy and sell orders for the same security simultaneously for different clients.
- XT: Specifies the particular type or tier of the special cross trade.
Key features of special cross trades
- Faster execution: The trade may be executed faster than if sent to public trading venues, as it's an internal cross.
- Competitive pricing: The trade is executed at a price within the current National Best Bid and Offer (NBBO), meaning the client is not disadvantaged.
- Simplified reporting: The ASX has introduced a new SC condition code for special cross trades to simplify reporting, replacing older codes like S1, S2, and S3 for equity market products.
Aka: Thimble and pea ... The TaPXT
Someone was willing to take 44 million shares at 0.17. That means there is at least one big buyer who accepts the price at this level. That’s neutral to slightly positive rather than bearish… so far so good. But the share price still won’t change tomorrow because it was an off-market trade, most likely between institutional investors.
We still have to wait and see what announcements come from now on, and how strong they are – or not. That alone is what really matters for us.

Bremen is the place to be this week when you want to engage with customers in the space tech business…

Maybe not.
I wonder if Brokers can do a block trade made up of multiple parties on one or both sides of the trade. Most likely I suspect.
They ASX allows them to parcel up large blocks this way rather than smash or inflate the SP on mkt due to the volume of the trade.
You know.....orderly market n all that crap ...we wouldn't want to make them spend time like retailers drip feeding the buy / sells on mkt or have this create liquidity / volatility like the reason why bots and shorting are allowed....fuppets (fkn muppets).
I just found out that a firkin is 9 imperial gallons of ale, but 70 imperial gallons of wine - I've always preferred firkin wine.

Well.. somethings afoot! For good or ill soon we shall see!
Alf Kuchenbuch, BrainChip's VP of Sales for EMEA (the ASX-listed company behind the BRN.AX stock ticker), has been a key figure in pitching their neuromorphic AI tech—specifically the Akida IP—to the space sector. The "GRAIN" you're referring to isn't a literal grain but the GRAIN architecture, a new product line of radiation-hardened, space-grade system-on-chips (SoCs) developed by Frontgrade Gaisler in partnership with BrainChip. It integrates Akida for ultra-low-power, event-based AI processing tailored for satellites, deep-space probes, and autonomous missions (think real-time image recognition, navigation, and data analysis in orbit without draining batteries or failing under radiation).
Launched in April 2025, the first device in the line (GR801 SoC) combines Akida with Gaisler's NOEL-V RISC-V processor. It's designed for harsh space environments, enabling "always-on" AI that's 10-100x more energy-efficient than traditional chips. This is a big deal for BRN.AX because it positions BrainChip's IP as a go-to for the booming $10B+ space AI market, potentially driving licensing revenue and stock upside as adoption ramps.
As for how many space customers are "waiting" for GRAIN: There's no public exact tally (companies like BrainChip don't disclose pipeline specifics to avoid tipping competitors), but recent activities point to solid, growing demand from institutional players:
Confirmed contracts/partners: At least 2 major space agencies so far.
Swedish National Space Agency (SNSA): Awarded a commercialization contract in April 2025 to deploy GRAIN in Swedish-led missions, focusing on power-constrained satellites.
European Space Agency (ESA): BrainChip (with Frontgrade Gaisler, Airbus, and Neurobus) won ESA's "NEURAVIS" ITT (Invitation to Tender) in July 2024 for neuromorphic space tech evaluation, which directly feeds into GRAIN demos. ESA hosted the October 2025 EDHPC event where Alf demoed it.
Broader interest: Alf's been hustling at events, connecting with "space engineers and agencies" (plural, per BrainChip's Oct 2025 EDHPC recap). This includes hands-on demos for Earth observation, autonomous nav, and hazard detection. Sweden's Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) is already building a GRAIN demo app with neuromorphic sensors. The space crowd is hungry for this because traditional AI chips guzzle power and flop in radiation—GRAIN fixes that.
Right now (as of Nov 19, 2025), Alf's at the Space Tech Expo Europe in Bremen, Germany, schmoozing more prospects. Expect announcements on additional pilots or deals soon, as the line's still ramping to full production. For BRN.AX holders, this screams validation: space is a high-margin, sticky market, and GRAIN could be a multi-year revenue catalyst if it scales beyond these early wins. If you're trading on it, watch for Q4 updates from BrainChip's investor calls.
