Will Bitcoin survive world war III?

[MHopkins]

I think if the roles occurs. certainly everyone will keep their money in a safe place or replace it with something that is easy to carry. yeah I think people will flock to exchange their money in bitcoin be easily taken and not stolen by anyone. I believe bitcoin survive if world war happen

Lets face it- if the nuclear shit hit the fan, apart from just surviving, the only game in town as far as currency is concerned would be gasoline or gold.

I don't think a new world war could occur in the destructive ways that the observed in past wars. There will be more technological ways to attack powerful countries, and some of them we are observing these days. 

However I am not so sure that the bitcoin could survive to a massive attack of expert hackers in the future years, when technological advances will overcome the current technology.

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?

The Blockchain will survive it all.  Well, until there is nothing left.

I do not think the Bitcoin will be used by people because they will do their best to survive, and they will probably not connect to the internet.
And since the Bitcoin network will be affected or damaged, I do not think anyone will use Bitcoin as a currency.

Will there be WWIII? I do not wish for that.

[Ethey]

There is simply every Day war...
I think the 3th World War is already there..

[Altynbekova]

Without the internet, I think bitcoin would not survive. I think we would take a few steps back in a lot of forms of technology if this scenario happened. Bitcoin would be the least of our worries in that kind of war.

Right, the internet will dead all of the facilities will destroyed at that time, only war in every place but bothing for some country is not following World war. but they can get a big effect from WW.
 

I'm thinking the same, what will happen is that everyone has no internet, I honestly think even that this war will be a cyber war.
The bitcoin will most likely not survive because there will be no internet anymore..

[BlackPanda]

I think it's impossible. bitcoin memermudah seala financial transactions. and the reason why bitcoin could trigger World War 3? , all want to live in safety and peace. so will you.

If it's a cyber war, bitcoin would probably die since the networks would be saturated by virtual bullets (i.e. DDoS, exploits that consume a massive amount of bandwidth). If it won't die, it'll just be sluggish.

On the other hand, if it's a real-life war, bitcoin might fork since intercontinental networks may be shut down on purpose but intra-continental ones would still be live.

No one can really tell since powerful countries have "deterrents", but based on what's happening to the world right now, I'm getting anxious.

Since blockchain can be  replicated to every computer, it can be transferred to the last computer left on the earth after the world war III and in this way bitcoin will survive the world war III .

[PsursV]

I don't think so that the smuggler are using bitcoin to buy weapons I think they can buy weapons easily using USD EURO and any other flat currency. I think bitcon will survive an any condition and in any position. no need to worry about bitcoin. how ever its rate will greatly effected at that time.

[BitcoinHodler]

as long as internet is up and the miners are not hit with an atomic bomb then bitcoin can still continue working and survive everything and even if all these things happen and internet goes down after everything ended if human race is not extinct we can pick up the longest chain and continue from there to have bitcoin.

[Wendigo]

I think there was a project going on about getting the Blockchain in space using satellites so the Bitcoin network will be completely independent from the ground Internet infrastructure. And in the event of the Internet getting disrupted worldwide it would still be possible to transmit transactions using the satellite installations. They will most probably act like permanent nodes in space

i dont think that theres going to happen something bad to be honest though i might be wrong too

bitcoin might survive it in my opinion if the internet wont be destroyed

The best thing we can develop for bitcoin is to make it possible to transact offline, in that way I can't see no other reasons for bitcoin to crash.

[universe_]

Could theorize that if it even does happen, the value of it will drop to 0$, and it will be useless anyway, haha. It also depends on how the big war will be, probably we'd use the currency to trade weapons?

Also what if we lose the internet? Then we don't even have the access to any currency either way, money will probably be useless. New currency will be food/ammo for sure, or bottlecaps

[Dr.Osh]

I did not expect the third world war will happen, no matter what, bitcoin would have persisted, even that will be a tool for good deals with other countries, because it would not be in the know and the transactions can take place quickly. I think bitcoin prices would be higher if it is in use by all countries

Anything can happen in our life, not only World war 3 the meteorite from space and fall into the earth it happens, if bitcoin is using by all countries bitcoin became a global currency at the same time.

Nah, the currency we have now will still have value for sure. Meteorite? nah... Also I really doubt that WW3 is likely to happen, even if it does, we won't use any currency at all...

like universe_ has said, it's going to be food or bottlecaps from fallout, lol. As far as the currency itself goes, we either see a big growth or a big fall, but that's just unpredictable by any means.
