« Last post by electronicash on Today at 10:01:34 PM »i've seen TIME, not a very possible move to happen. they could just snatch time from someone's arm which the currency has no security.
what i can think of is that the civil war in the movie is just in the US to which Canada is not affected and their government is still working. the producers/writers could have picked Mexican Peso assuming the government in the country is more stable but of course they'd pick Canada.
maybe if Canadian government is also a mess and the Mexican government is also getting crazy like they are part of the civil war in the Amerikan continent, i guess this is where we can see crypto will be the option.
...if we are in this kind of situation where the electricity is still on like its normal situation still and internet is accessible, wouldn't it make sense for the warlords to accept BTC and other crypto?
I am going to see where I can watch this supposedly good movie According to Wikipedia: "Civil War is a 2024 dystopian war film written and directed by Alex Garland. It follows a team of journalists traveling across the United States during a civil war fought between an authoritarian federal government and several regional factions." Now, to answer your question, I think the producers and writers of the said movie have never thought of cryptocurrency and that is why they opted for Canadian Dollar. We have to remember that in case there can be a nationwide civil war, the government will not be functional well and central banking can be collapsing so fiat money can be worthless. In case, there can still be electricity (solar option can surely be available unless there is already a nuclear war) and the internet, then money can be Bitcoin and the rest of the crypto gang and there can be some that will introduce war memecoins. Of course, all of these things are just speculative ideas as nobody can be sure of what can happen in case we can experience a big civil war disruption. Let's hope we can never have the bitter taste of a civil war in our lifetime.
