A good way to get a head of future market moves is to game out important scenarios, i.e. ones which result in market moves. I think WW2b is an important scenario. Here's my WW2b scenario:

Occupied Crimea votes independence from Ukraine.
Ukraine mobilizes military in eastern Ukraine.
Putin invades eastern Ukraine to "protect ethnic Russians".
Ukrainian military retreats.
NATO enters Ukraine.
Ukraine military re-enters eastern Ukraine.
Putin escalates in eastern Ukraine.
Ukraine military retreats.
NATO in force.
NATO - Russian air conflict, Russia suffers loses.
NATO - Russian ground conflict, NATO suffers loses.
NATO uses tactical nukes.
Putin nukes New York.

How does this scenario affect Bitcoin?

Are there scenarios in Transdniestra or the Baltics which are more likely to escalate than the more narrowly focused conflict in Ukraine?

WWII??? Its WWIII!! Roll Eyes

Yes. This is a WWIII scenario. As for Bitcoin the question then becomes how many nodes do you have to nuke in order to knock out the entire network?

BTC would be far far more resilient than any current banking system, there are just to may nodes that can start up to easily in so many places.

The block chain is going to be beamed down from space soon.....
