Will Bitcoin survive world war III?

[Altynbekova]

I honestly do not think the bitcoin will survive this because the bitcoin is a currency and its fully digital.
I think if the WW III comes the whole internet will go down soon or later.

[ekoice]

It is difficult to say anything before time since bit coin is a currency and has no hold on the life of people and no influence on world politics so no one can predict if bit coin will survive after ww3 since we would not know if internet will be available after ww3 or not ?

 Will Bitcoin survive world war III?

i think yes! Bitcoin will survive as long as internet exist, since that you've been asking this to the community
they have their own opinion to there reaction.

[X7]

You're assuming there will be one

[pandalion98]

You're assuming there will be one

We can never tell.



Depends on whether humans will survive. If yes, depends on whether they're aware of BTC. If yes, depends if they still have copies of the software and blockchain.

If humans don't survive, technically BTC will still survive since there will definitely be copies of the blockchain and software somewhere deeply hidden and protected, but we can never be sure.

As we are in the new Information age, if Bitcoin is as secure as everyone on this forum says it is, it could be attacked many times, it might survive, it might not. The blockchain will survive though.

We need a lot more smart people in this world to survive WWIII

[qiman]

It can only survive if we have internet and computers, if WORLD WAR THREE blows everything out of the water then bitcoin, along with the rest of us will be toast.

Yeah agree with this , bitcoin will survive if more smart people still alive if world war 3 will happen,but there is no sense to start world 3 many innocent will die.

World War III broke out 6 years, huge disruption to everybody, there was limited nuclear bomb detonation in two smaller nations. Internet is in a state useable but not reliable.
Will Bitcoin survive? Will smuggler use Bitcoin to buy weapon, or gold to buy weapon?

it will survive but i doubt it will have the same price or most like become worthless, people
will focus on rebuilding cities and bitcoin will be forgotten by most of its users, but im sure
gold will be valuable and most like be used to trade for goods or as you say weapons.

Copy of blockchain is one thing. I guess someone somewhere in his shelter will have plenty of blockchain copies. But assuming that humanity will survive somehow (because WW3=most likely nuclear holocaust).
I doubt that bitcoin after that war will have any value at all. If you are familiar with the Fallout universe you know that after a war, pre war dollars are useless, and bitcoin will be more that useless.

So yes, blockchain will most likely survive somewhere (I don't know if there will anyone able to use it though) - bitcoin network, not so much.

[Enotche]

Why not? Provided that there would be Internet, and that will not be destroyed mining farm.
I believe that the 3rd world war will be more informational than weapons.
Nuclear war will not exist. I am inclined to think that the war will be between Russia and the West. And as you know, all Russian politicians, businessmen, government officials and MPs,have family and appartments in Europe. Naturally they do not want to lose it.

[VC George]

I've seen that most people are talking about nukes here. Regardless my personal opinion about earth's nuclear arsenal a World War is ready to start at any day. Reasons behind it tend to be actually only 1> the never ending hunt for power backed by greediness.
In addition to that I won't analyze who's right and wrong, we all know that USA is a world class cancer with it's fiat bs backed by smaller cancers carrying on the print ops (printing money=making people poorer by the minute). So the actual question is, will a war make irreparable damages to the communication cables carrying our beloved internet or will it not? Accompanied by>will we still be able to buy/sell Bitcoins using gold or not?

Answering the above 2 gives you a nice glimpse of the possible future
And here are your hints:

1) 95% of the Earths com cables pass bellow the Baltic sea, giving Russians a nice edge if anything's about to happen (they can shut down everything just by chopping those coms  )

2)In the event that Russia is too nice to fuck the world when everyone attacks them like pussies will our rulers allow us to use the www and if not while we manage to set up nodes to run tor in bigger capacities, will we be able to buy gold using our Bitcoin?

Ps no hard feelings about Yankies, Germans etc it's just about their gay/perv/sick/slave minded govs

Just my 0.02 bits :p

[smoothie]

If the internet survives in some form then yes.

Otherwise it will be almost pointless to try to keep it alive without the internet.

that's war,innocent doesn't matter,without smart people blockchain will still alive as long there's still a computer connected to the network as it decentralized,but if there's none,i doubt bitcoin still alive,but even bitcoin still alive the price will falling down,people don't need bitcoin anymore

[nururochac]

I have doubt for WW3 in 10 years. If technology and internet survives after devastation of nuclear war maybe BTC can survive...

If ww3 breaks out then biggest question is if humen will survive ? Bitcoin no doubt has stable future but on other side i am hopeful there will never be any ww3 since all people of the world are very good and wise and reject such ideas.

I'm sure that after each war, even World war, someone will survive (in some deep caves ) but I'm not sure that Internet will survive complete disaster of the planet earth, and that survivors will care about it or Bitcoin.
I feel that you are very idealistic if you believe that we will not have another World war because people are very good.
please weak up!
We had WW I and WW II and also WW III (Cold war) but reason why WW III didn't become ''hot'' war is very simple: ''No guarantee for victory''.
WW IV is also possible with terrorist like ISIS and if this happen, please believe me, nobody will care any more about any bitcoin.

World War doesn't mean all land will get destroyed and get bombed there's specific land or country in which the war will really get focused just like in WW2 we had. 

[romero121]

Lets hope such a war never happens. Also we can try hard to grow our bitcoin rather than expecting war days. Bitcoin is gonna make a long history similar to the dollar and other currencies.

[isen]

Probably no but who cares anyway?If world war III happens we will have much important things to worry about than bitcoin,cryptocurrencies and money in general.
Anyway i hope we will never reach this point..

Exactly what I was about to reply. Our bitcoins, alt coins, cryptos, money, wealth in general, that's no way my priority when WWIII happens. My first priority would be my health and my family's and our safety. I suppose that's what it should be, right?

If the internet do not survive after a war and the situation comes that people remain in caves then it is not possible that internet will come again and bitcoin will come again, as the people in caves are unable to invent a technology like that for that we need scientists.

[chineseprancing]

Will humans survive?

Lol, this is the right question, can we survive the world war 3?
