I have a buddy who thinks one EMP blast could stop Bitcoin’s network so he doesn’t invest. What do I tell him? #Bitcoin #Nostr

Quantum computers

#Bitcoin Tech innovation will outpace tech concerns.

I thought this was possible too

Tell him to grow up.

yeah, even a carrington event, which is a massive EMP from the sun, would only knock out half the internet, the other half would be on the shadow side shielded by the massive core of the earth... sure it would take some time to restore many of the connections but everything that is already either underground wires or optic fibre aside from well shielded router points will keep working give or take a few fixes to the generators

If you EMP the entire planet then yeah. But I think you will have bigger problems😂

I think surivival insticts would trump any other worries lol

Worldwide emp?

That'll kill billions and the only currency anyone will be using is small rifle primers...
