这是一个很有趣的故事。
芬兰加密货币集团，音译为fimkrypto，与软件公司koodilehto达成合作伙伴协议，开始称为kryptoradio的小项目，这个计划将允许经国家广播电视网络实时播放比特币区链块数据。
合作伙伴包括Digita, ，芬兰国家电视广播公司。广播信号将覆盖约95％的芬兰领土，五百万人。
你可能会扪心自问：为什么？
答案很简单。广播可以让商家和消费者都能接受区链块实时数据，不用连接互联网或移动互联网。
该方案可以很容易地建立起用户负担得起的接收器，不用为了保持比特币通路和接收比特币支付而必需连接移动数据。这将有可能为现金支付终端建立比特币副本，从现金出纳机到投币自助洗衣店的任何信息的副本。如果接收应用程序只用于交易本身，甚至可以使用ARM微控制器。
利用DVB-T广播标准，该计划的潜力是巨大的，可以扩大到芬兰之外。你可以看看下面的地图：
你可以看到，这可能真的有助于在非洲发展比特币，作为一个例子，非洲的互联网连接是很困难的。
该程序是一个试点，并将于九月一日开始，持续约两个月。在这段时间里，欢迎任何人使用这项技术来建设/开发设备或应用程序。
试点后，fimkrypto将寻求途径保持广播电波，但补充一句，成本不小。大约每月2000欧元。
“我们正在寻找那个阶段的合作伙伴。”该组织说。
评论：想法很好，只是成本限制了其发展，而且，未来没有互联网连接的地方，大概也没有电视信号。
This is a really interesting story, here.
In a partnership deal with software company Koodilehto, a Finnish crypto-currency group dubbed FIMKrypto is starting a little something called Kryptoradio, an initiative that will allow for the broadcast of the bitcoin blockchain via national television broadcasting networks in real time.
The partnership includes working with Digita, a Finnish national TV broadcaster. The broadcast signal will cover approximately 95 percent of Finnish territory, reaching up to five million people.
So you might be asking yourself: why?
The answer is simple. The broadcast will allow both merchants and consumers to receive blockchain data in real time without the need for an Internet or mobile Internet connection.
This scheme makes it easy to construct affordable receivers that do not need mobile data connections in order to follow bitcoin traffic and to react to the received bitcoin payments. This would make it possible to build bitcoin counterpart for cash payment terminals, anything from a cash register to a coin operated self-service laundry. If the receiver application follows only transactions relevant to itself, it will be possible to build it using even an ARM microcontroller.
Using the DVB-T broadcasting standard, the potential for this program to expand beyond the borders of Finland is immense. Just take a look at the map below:
You can see that this could really help with the expansion of bitcoin in countries in Africa, as an example, where internet connectivity can be difficult to come by.
The program is only a pilot, and will begin on the 1st of September, lasting for approximately two months. During that time, anyone who wishes to build/develop devices or applications using the technology is welcome to do so.
Following the pilot, FIMKrypto will seek to keep the broadcast over the air waves, but adds that the costs for doing so are significant. About €2000 per month.
“We are currently looking for partners to that stage,” the organization said.
