I’m working on a Bitcoin project designed for people in remote, hyperinflation-affected communities who lack access to banks, internet, or the knowledge to self-custody BTC. The solution is a tamper-evident, pre-funded paper certificate secured by a 2-of-2 multisig wallet. One private key is hidden inside the physical certificate; the second key is generated by a foundation or trusted entity and also securely embedded within the same certificate. A public Bitcoin address—derived from both keys—is printed on the outside, allowing anyone to verify its on-chain balance. BTC is sent to this address by either the certificate issuer or the foundation. This makes Bitcoin usable as an offline, cash-like medium of exchange while remaining secure and trust-minimized. I’m currently looking feedback.
I wonder how you'll validate the funds in cases of document forgery if you don't have immediate, direct access to the blockchain.
Or what benefit would a rural area have from having Bitcoin if, due to their internet access issues, they couldn't use it in their daily lives?
I'd prefer to equip them with technologies like Starlink; it would be more productive and convenient for them, since this is practically centralizing access to Bitcoin for those users.
