Would this be a helpful tool for HAM?
Discussion
Yes. Have you heard about nostr:npub1jg552aulj07skd6e7y2hu0vl5g8nl5jvfw8jhn6jpjk0vjd0waksvl6n8n satellite?
📡DYK: You can sync a full node offline & anonymously using data beamed down from Blockstream satellites in space via radio signals. 📡
What is a Blockstream Satellite Node:
A Blockstream Satellite Node broadcasts Bitcoin blockchain data via satellite, enhancing the Bitcoin network's accessibility, resilience and privacy. If you are crafty, this could be done for less than $100 fiat.
This is a great DIY project for cypherpunks. It is also a great project for using a cheap SDR.
It can also be a great way to introduce pre-coiners in your local ham radio club to bitcoin and why bitcoin nodes are important. There are a lot of very smart people in your local ham radio club that we can bring in to our side.
1. ⚡️⚡️ Satellite Transmission: Transmits Bitcoin data, reducing reliance on internet connections.
2. ⚡️⚡️ Global Access: Provides Bitcoin data access in regions with limited internet.
3. ⚡️⚡️ Network Resilience: Increases resistance to internet disruptions.
4. ⚡️⚡️ Privacy Benefits: By not relying on local ISPs, which might monitor internet traffic, satellite nodes enhance privacy and reduce surveillance risks.
5. ⚡️⚡️ Equipment Needed: Requires a satellite dish, USB satellite receiver, and a computer.
6. ⚡️⚡️ Lower Costs: Reduces bandwidth costs in areas with expensive internet.
This system promotes Bitcoin network decentralization and ensures privacy by enabling access and participation without traditional internet dependency.
