Ferengi rule of acquisition #34: War is good for business
Business yes, but crypto? I struggle to imagine anything that could be of less value in times of war.
Pseudo-anonymous store of value that doesn’t require a central institution for transmission?
I’m trying to envision the panic as crypto bros can’t get into their online wallets.
I’m going to stick with my strategy of growing barley and running a still. Pretty sure I’ll have something men will give me their firstborn to obtain. Then I’ll use my army of drunken, mutated postwar babies to take over the tampon factories, and gain the support of the other half of humanity.
That’s why you have local wallets…
You still need the network to process transactions; if the internet is down then your local wallet is unspendable unless you create a local side chain with your own nodes and get everyone who wants to transact with you on board.
Then the apocalypse must continue because you’d never be able to reattach to the main chain
