My dad is somewhat of a prepper. He grows all his own food, produces all his own. Electricity and is off the water grid..

His argument against Bitcoin is always EMPs shutting down the electricity grid and the conversation, kind of just stops there because yeah, sure, if the electricity goes, no one is going to be using Bitcoin. Duh.

I think bitcoiners tend to be this interesting niche of Optimistic Preppers. We see the world going to shit, but like a young girl with a crush on a fuckboi, we "say I can fix him."

If electricity goes down then you can’t really bank or use credit cards either … you can still use your cash or whatever you have for barter.

After a week or 3, cash won’t be worth anything either. Either through supply side hyperinflation or simply due to the fact that you can’t eat or drink cash.

Exactly. EMP is a very strange concern because if your electricity is down for THAT long, your entire society goes to shit and you have way bigger problems than money.
