[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 2913467, member: 77814"]I'm an Amatuer Radio Operator. We've been called into action in a few instances such as the US Midwest Blackout a few years back. I don't see our Short/Long wave radios being able to maintain an "internet" at all. Though KNL Networks has such a solution. The problem is .. in the event of an apocalypse there are so many dominoes in the "network" that if one fails, then nothing would be available. Even if plausible, I don't see many people adopting it and even then so, Emergency local/county/state communications would take precedent. FYI, I'm in the midst of adding 300w solar panels and battery backup for general use. How would people get me "information" and, also being in BitCoin, how would I sell BitCoin and receive the cash ?? It's just isn't plausible at this point for an apocalypse, unless all banks, and electronic communications continued without hiccups, and the people supporting these systems continue without problems. And thus, what then prevents the regular banking and investment companies from operating as normal during an event like this ?? Even then so, I'm not going to invest "my money" for "my communications infrastructure (hobby)" to support "you, the general public".[/QUOTE]
