I can't, my friend. I'm getting panic attacks when people suffer, I must avoid such topics. I don't deny Bitcoin would cover a lot of loss, outer help included, but the major weakness is still on my mind.

And when there are no cellular networks available or are taken down by governments/bombs? I feel like these cases are a bit unexplored, but yeah mesh networks would be helpful to connect offline areas to other online areas. Really hope things like meshtastic, reticulum and lora can become more mainstream and be used in these scenarios. At least simple messages and transactions/tokens can be transmitted.

You don't even need the internet anymore.

I'm not listening to NPR, no offence.
