Not really a very good situation even for bitcoin/lightning. Not even GSM worked well.

The only way to pay would be #cashu and that would require a mutual trust.

Bitcoin without electricity is dead.

Yeah, cashu or cash.

It would have to be a very solid cashu mint, to compete with the Bundesbank, tho. My Eurobucks usually work pretty well, as cash money.

But cash registers won't.

Well almost all things in modern civilization are dead without electricity (energy, explicitly)

Civilization without electricity is dead.

Without electricity we would probabli get back to barter and gold, then slowly to the old "exchange letter", then to money. But in a new society.

all devices without electricity is dead mate, thats why you gotta have a UPS and solar panel on hand, thats how we do here in deep dark africa

true, but when the whole country goes dark like spain did (including gsm), you don't have internet. unless you have satelite connection.

Bitcoin protects your wealth from looting and stealing in chaotic situations like this.

That's why I stack sats and ammo.

Hmm... if only you could beam Bitcoin through satellites...

hehe

Humans without electricity are dead, probably. Well, most of them anyway.

Could someone design a solar powered open node unit that runs a starlink for backup to the backups?
