PSA: The electricity at my place will be out tomorrow from 7am to 5pm AEST (ridiculous, I know).
As such, the Ministry of Nodes website, webstore and BTCPayServer will be down.

We can fix this.
Only a true technological breakthrough can give us our own infrastructure.
Telephones 1876
Electricity grid 1888
🤔
It is interesting how a decentralised grid, eg domestic solar could in theory dramatically increase a nations resilience to threats.
That just leaves your ISP with a hand on the rug.
I think a system of self-generated network address allocation could replace Internet Protocol, and there would be huge market drivers for speedy adoption.
Imagine people self generate an IP, even if it took 5 seconds to establish a connection it would be a better fit to domestic network traffic than TCP/IP which is a warzone tech.
Would probably require some kind of long range wifi though, to create a network fabric outside the cable infrastructure of the internet. The network equivalent of the solar panel.
But again, this is well within the reach of engineering in 2023.
What do you think about a robust relay network replacing the internet protocol ?
