#asknostr #bitcoin Can someone explain in terms the average person can understand, how Bitcoin transactions would continue to function during a power outage? I'd like to be able to defend this concept...

there are some ways to do it. but they require technical knowhow and at least some offgrid infrastructure. the bitcoin economy as a whole is largely dependent on the nation state powergrid, and an internet connection. two vulnerabilities that quite a few bitcoiners dont like discussing.

the way i personally view it, is bitcoin is a legitimate system alternative that is still tethered to the system. meaning, its very good in a variety of economic and geopolitical upheaval scenarios. but i wont be relying on it as a means of exchange in a grid down scenario.

ive done some weird experiments with tents and moisture. hanging things in different ways over the winter to see if they would mildew.
having air gaps between layers makes all the difference. im getting ready to overwinter with some canvas/underlayment “curtains” i sewed up to hang inside a largecanvas walltent. we’ll see how they do

i read an article in Low Tech Magazine about how the Russians moved a certain strain of citrus tree 50 miles north each year, for many years, until they could grow citrus as short trees in trenches in some parts of siberia.
