Well this is a good thread some one need to develop a technology when the internet goes down that you can still trade bitcoins.
Oh well I am just hoping that doesn't happen I can live without internet.
Internet is a vast network with multiple redundancy points, and while it may get unavailable at some locations at crisis points as op describes, it's
definitely safe to say that rest of the world won't be affected in any major way. imho this thread is either trolling or created by someone who
lacks basic knowledge in technology in general.
cheers
Even if internet is available in certain locations of the world, you wouldn't be thinking about bitcoin if there was a nuclear war going on. You would just stop all the trading and whatever transactions you could make with internet. Once something happens that depends on life or death, money and bitcoin doesn't mean anything anymore. If it does still matter to some people out there, then you guys need a serious check on yourself.
agreed , money/bitcoins/gold/diamonds all become useless so bitcoins would be the least of ur problems , you cant buy food or water for currencies anyway if it comes to a nuclear war. but atleast you can use ur regular money to help start a fire so thats a plus
