Did the communication problem between Bitcoin nodes on Mars and nodes on Earth has been solved already? Is zapping someone on Earth from Mars even possible?
If not, I'm not packing yet

Average speed of light travel time longer than block time.
Not a huge issue but should probably wait for multiple confirmations on transactions.
Actually now that I think about it chain on Mars and chain on Earth would deviate pretty quickly being that many minutes out of sync if there's significantly more hashpower on one or the other.
What I think is that if we want to adopt Bitcoin on other planets, the one way is probably with another layers or side chains. The distances are just too great.
Expect more shitcoins to be made for space travel industry. Bitcoin won't work as it is.
All the cool kids only zap from mars.
Look at this nerd... Still zappiing from earth...
Pffffffft
