Everyone keeps saying we are going to crash.. The USD is doomed.. etc.
..and then what happens to Bitcoin? Without internet.. no Bitcoin..
I feel as if chaos would unleash in this sort of event, causing internet outages around the globe. (how do you even pay your internet bill if this were to happen?)
I don't see why the internet would be gone if the USD crashes.
The article you added was pretty interesting though, I do think it would be better in the long run to switch to mesh networks.

Bitcoin transactions can be sent on paper, by morse code, even by carrier pigeons. As long as one miner is alive, bitcoin survives. The most likely disaster resulting from global economic meltdown is war, internet becomes difficult, bitcoin survives anyway.
