I expect a lot to have been said on most media on the satellite procedure but this is the only one have seen for now. I also think the paper wallet can only be issued using internet, so internet will always be important in cryptocurrency but the Idea to reach the unreached in cryptocurrency is good to enlarge the community.

A major step towards greater proliferation
Let's make the BTC affordable for all people
Even people in remote villages who do not have access to the Internet
The effect of this move will appear when the market start thrives.

The problem is that bitcoin wont work without internet but your are right  .  we need a currency simillar to cryptos that is not fully dependable to internet so that people who dont have an internet can also use it  .  


If bitcoin or crypto should be use without internet,  that means one can do an offline transaction of bitcoin.
But, my question will be....can exchanges also be used and operated without internet as in offline exchanges?

A big no . you need an internet to access websites online .  so how can you visit exchangers if you are offline ?  But when btc or any other crypto can be exported offline and can be printed to metals or papers .  i guess there will also an offline exchangers were you can trade or exchange your coins , simillar to banks that we are using for our traditional currencies today .

Using bitcoin without internet would mean a good thing to the over all development and wide spread adoption of bitcoin.
This is because most people who not have access to Internet or funds for internet subscription will now be able to use bitcoin without worrying their heads over having funds for internet subscription or not.
It is a good thing if it's possible.

example of those benefits? because I cant see any benefits of using bitcoin without an internet, bitcoin and cryptocurrency requires internet to make a good transaction even when the cryptocurrency innovate for having a ATM transaction it requires still an internet.

Bitcoin transactions undependable to the Internet would be a big step and would probably be a history. The idea is good but I don't think that it is going to happen any sooner. This kind of development might took years before the success of its implementation. For long years, bitcoin had been traded and exchanged  and Internet is very much needed to perform all of these and I'm sure that the Internet dependency had been talked about.

So far, ATMs are the latest development when it comes to the bitcoin usage.

Using Bitcoin without the internet will make Bitcoin transaction more secured. Working offline will make it hard for hackers to see what one is doing. It will be a good development
I don't think it really guarantees, even though you use bitcoin offline, the risk of stealing the bitcoin you have is still open. And until now everyone uses bitcoin as a system to get profits, only a few people use it as a tool for transactions that are constantly being used every day. So that, the internet will always be needed by every bitcoin user, for those who do not need protection, maybe only someone who wants to invest long-term and uses hardware wallet.

I don't see that happening reason being that bitcoin is internet money or currency. How will the blocks confirm transactions? What about exchanges?

I am still a little hesitant about that, because I still think the internet is the life of other bitcoin and crypto,
but if there really is something that could allow using bitcoin without the internet it would certainly be the next big discovery

That would be very good and helpful for many people in many countries that have internet connection problem to access to crypto currency. However, I don't really believe it will be reached, I am worry that it is just a mid day dream. As we know that crypto currency is much depending on internet connections. In addition, if this can be reached, I think that this is very advanced technology.

We are mostly engage into internet and we are in the computer era, that could be some reason of digital creation(crypto). Without this(internet) it is totally useless and nothing happen, everything will seems to be paralyzed. That is why some remote areas where never been in touch with Bitcoin just because the lack of internet and computers.

Another advance of technology once this happened to the world and this wil boost the popularity and usage of BITCOIN.
One main problem of cryptocurrency is really the dependency to Internet connection which transaction can not be made.

cool . do you know the name of that software ? if yes can you please share it to us so that we can also experience what you already had.  i live in the area where internet is accesible but the problem is that the data charges on our country is so expensive  .  using bitcoin offline can be a good solution to our problems  but it might take a long wait for that to  be implemented because the adoption of bitcoin is not yet a widespread and many countries do still restricts the use of it .

That advancement will take more time because we still not have enough technology to do it but I am sure that we can use bitcoin in our daily transaction even there is no internet. More users will attract to use bitcoin if it can use even there is no internet.

This is awesomw and we can aay that it will finally change everything from social media into business transactions but as we can see this will require so much advancement that most of the people may not be able to commit in a short period of time and we can say that it will be a cause of disturbances and disruption if we may not be able ro acquire, and this may not be a health invention for everyone.
