As of now, Bitcoin is the cryptocurrency with the most nodes available worldwide. It's been doing well with only 10 years since its inception. However, I believe that in order for Bitcoin to reach true censorship-resistance and reliability, it needs to expand in areas far beyond reach. It would be nice to have Bitcoin nodes distributed across space in order to be prepared for any catastrophic event on Earth. Imagine having Bitcoin nodes on the Moon, as well as, planets like Mars and Venus. This would allow Bitcoin to stand the test of time for generations.
However, it's yet to be proven if this solution is viable after all. What are your thoughts?

Putting it up on the space is interesting. The maximum nodes that we have is 10,000 and now we only have 9,200-9400 nodes all over the network, and these nodes helps the bitcoin network to be more faster and secured, especially if we all have fully nodes in the Bitcoin network, that is why I've heard this project in the internet about putting fully functioning nodes in the space in order to have that fast and secure bitcoin network, however there's no specific date where it is going to happen.
I'm looking forward on it.
