Internet Shutdowns Cost $2.4 Bln A Year. How They Impact Bitcoin?
https://www.cointelegraph.com/news/internet-shutdowns-cost-24-bln-a-year-how-they-impact-bitcoin
According to research by The Center for Technology Innovation at Brookings, shutdown of the internet, primarily short-term, by governments have caused an estimated loss of $2.4 bln last year due to loss of economic activity alone. If the secondary impact such as loss of investors, consumer confidence, taxes, etc. of internet shutdowns is considered, the loss would be much higher.
