Using bitcoin without internet

[Mikwik]

I don't think that using Bitcoin without the presence of internet is possible. I see it is very clear to see and woth sense that if we wanted to use Bitcoin crypto currency we also need to have an internet connection.

Someone needs to have an internet connection -- if a transaction needs to be broadcast to the blockchain. But if you had no internet connection, you could sign a transaction offline and transmit the raw transaction to someone else using paper and pencil or thumb drive. They could broadcast the transaction or keep passing it along until someone can.

There's also the idea of bearer instruments, like Opendime. If there is a set value loaded on a device like that, it can be used like just like cash.

Blockstream Satellite Now Means Most Of The World Can Use Bitcoin Without Internet. What's your opinion on this one? Do you see it as progress or not?

I think this is very convenient specially to the small country like here in the Philippines we know already that not all Filipinos using computer with Internet because some of them are not enough to pay always for Internet connection for daily transaction. I think Through IP address we can access for this kind of Blockstream Satelite. So its good very nice i hope this gonna be viable anytime.

For now it is not possible to use bitcoin without the internet, because the internet connects us to the blockchain network, but if some of satellite can replace it, I don't know how it works if that can be done, but who will make it and finance it?

Unfortunately it is not. Bitcoin is depending on internet system. Without internet, we can't use and transfer it one account to other account. But if it works without internet, then we will get some benefits also.

This is the first time I heard about this news and if it's true it will be awesome not only for Bitcoin and also for other Crypto Currencies as well if it supports it. If it is using satellite does it mean Bitcoin is literally skyrocketing to space for every transaction made in this kind of system? LOL Gonna do some research about this Blockstream Satellite that you are saying and thanks for sharing some information that I didn't know.

Kinda like telemetry, I think, but this one processes more data and has more capacity compared to its predecessors. This is really an excellent news considering that there are still some parts of the world in which internet access is prohibited or not that reliable and stable. This could potentially change the game for the mining industry and travelers should they find themselves in a remote area that accepts bitcoins (this could happen) and without cash but only bitcoins on hand. As the article states, one only needs a USB device and a receiver to relay transactions and receive data from the satellite, and I just hope that it's not that expensive so as to really help change the shape of sending money wherever you are, literally.

LMAO. I think I am the only one in here that do not know this kind of technology that is been circulating.

I don't think it would be possible if using bitcoin without internet, what if they were very far away in a village that was not covered by satellites. Of course they will not be able to use without the internet, if that is true it will happen, of course everyone will feel happy without paying internet usage bills. But that is not possible, I think that's just your wish.

I think you're wrong because the satellite can access almost everywhere in the world because it is floating above our world in the space and there are multiple satellites that are floating above our planet. It is not impossible and it could be possible.

maybe bitcoin will be faster when accessed with the internet, but this is a satellite system that might be as good as internet access in general, this is a very useful progress for future bitcoin

That can make the transaction of bitcoin faster. If that satellite can be better than using internet, there could be no problem wherever we go. There has nothing impossible because people are getting in new technology. It takes time for that, for now bitcoin need internet for to access.

[superstarbtc]

now bitcoin is on space soon to the moon like before once the satellite start working we can access btc wallet with no internet which is positive sign for cryptocurrency industry

[kalel18]

a good news for bitcoin users who are struggling with the internet. this is the beginning of the areas where there is no signal to get internet to use bitcoin, because sometimes you need to find a signal in places where there is only one, this helping others and hope so it be more faster.

[rumexx]

Using bitcoin without internet will be an invention and it will make cryptocurrency to reach far and near especially where there will be internet access challenge. It will be good as there will be no longer excuse for the spread of bitcoin and other altcoins. The spread will be fast and wide which we are hoping to achieve.

Until now the only thing we know is the internet, so I have no idea how this will be copied to the satellites. In my opinion this transactions will only happen after the Bitcoin is sent to this network via the internet. It must be so innovative that its transactions create a desire for people to migrate.

Using bitcoin Forum without Internet connection is impossible as similar a human body without backbone. So internet connection is a prime action in bitcointalk forum.

of course this is progress from the world of technology especially for us as users of bitcoin. the effect is quite large, this can strengthen the interest of people in remote areas to get involved in bitcoin

can bitcoin not use the internet even though bitcoin needs bitcoin, the question is rather ridiculous, it likes to be there and I think it's ridiculous if there is no internet, can I access bitcoin I think it's ridiculous

yes, I agree with you. The internet is very important in everyday life, I think nowadays the internet can be easily accessed from mobile phones making people more easily connected to various facilities in the digital world.

[TheLoser]

I have not heard about this technology of using bitcoin via satellite . If it already exists , it is a great progress that will help many people to buy and sell bitcoin in those places where there is no Internet .

[mega_carnation]

I'm still understanding on how things would go such as bitcoin transactions if there's no internet at all. It's hard to understand that this can be done but with a satellite? what would we call that technology that uses satellite to make it happen? can someone summarize and educate us with that?

It is totally a progress because imagine you can now have an access to bitcoin without the internet connection. It will definitely help people who are in remote areas to finally join the cryptocurrency world. It is also a huge help to us because we can now access our bitcoin anywhere without probleming the internet connection.

It could be really useful for Bitcoin users because we may have a lot of difficulties if we would not have an internet connection and we are using digital currencies with it.

I think it is inaccessible because Bitcoin must have a connection if it is not impossible what my advice is and my words make sense this time and I am 100% correct

[felicita]

Found good informations about Blockstream here: https://blockstream.com/satellite/
All they need is a Satelite he have also one unused on my house becourse we are on kable....maybe i ajust it.
