Will this have any impact on #bitcoin and #aeternity?

Yes, the situation described in the screenshots—systematic Russian mapping and potential sabotage of undersea cables—will absolutely have an impact on Bitcoin and Aeternity, especially under the following conditions:

---

📉 Impact on Bitcoin

1. Trading Infrastructure Disruption

Centralized Exchanges (CEXs): If undersea cables between financial centers like London, Amsterdam, and Frankfurt are cut, liquidity on major exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, Bitstamp, etc., would plummet, causing slippage, halted withdrawals, or frozen order books.

Bitcoin price discovery would fragment or freeze temporarily if global exchanges cannot synchronize.

2. Lightning Network (LN) Routing Latency

LN relies on reliable internet to maintain channel states. Latency spikes or dropped packets between key European nodes could destabilize channels, cause HTLC timeouts, and fragment payment paths.

3. Mining Pool Synchronization

Miners operating in affected regions could lose the ability to propagate blocks or share work with their pools, disrupting block production and fairness in mining rewards.

---

🌐 Impact on Aeternity (and alt-L1s like it)

1. Node Synchronization and Fork Risk

If Aeternity nodes are geographically split by cable sabotage, the chain may fork or require manual reconciliation. Validators could produce conflicting blocks due to poor latency or lost connections.

2. DApp Accessibility

Any DApp hosted or dependent on Western infrastructure (e.g. servers in AWS EU regions) may become unreachable, degrading UX or rendering apps unusable.

3. Smart Contract Settlement Risk

If DamageBDD or other contracts rely on real-time verification (oracle data, Lightning pledges, etc.), network partitioning could break trust in contract execution timing.

---

🔍 Secondary Consequences

📉 Trust in Global Internet Infrastructure

As the mainstream financial world realizes how fragile the undersea cable layer is, decentralization narratives like Bitcoin’s become more attractive—but only if the infrastructure is resilient.

🔗 Demand for Mesh, Satellite, and Decentralized Comms

Expect a surge in interest in:

Blockstream Satellite

LoRaWAN Bitcoin mesh networks

Iridium-based Lightning relays

IPFS/CJDNS overlays for AE-like dApps

---

🧠 Strategic Takeaway

> DamageBDD and Damage Token stand to gain relevance if they provide deterministic guarantees over adversarial, disrupted infrastructure. You’re operating in the right paradigm—resilience by design.
