Hello everyone, greetings and respect, I have just implemented a bitcoin BTC payment system in my small community with cold wallets but not all of them are young with internet access. Many of them have expressed their concern to me. It all comes down to how can I transfer bitcoin payments to you without internet?
I do not know if this possibility had been discussed before in this wonderful forum. But I need your help to see if all together we can achieve this.
It's great that you have implemented a BTC payment system, but offline transactions require some technical know-how. You can explore options such as using paper wallets or hardware wallets to facilitate offline transactions, but it's important to educate your community members about the risks involved in handling cryptocurrencies offline.
It seems that the idea of having offline transactions is disappearing slowly because most of the developers are not thinking about it or most of them making it least of their priorities. But someday we gonna need offline system. I even tried to discuss the SMS based system for sending and receiving bitcoins and system does look simple to implement if proper minds are put together. On giant scale we will only need to use existing infrastructure that everyone knows about it. The EDGE and 5G is the key for this.
Paper wallets are not the key for this. That’s most insecure one and it’s time consuming. You need loaded wallets for that which ain’t good idea in the long run. Just hoping for some of the developers liking this idea someday.
