[Lauda]

given the cayos happening in the world i wouldn't be surprised of nuclear war and in this case i would expect internet disruption question is what happens to Bitcoin if internet goes down?

home internet and mobile internet goes down

do not mean trade bitcoin to buy/sell i mean using it as a way of payment say you wanted to send money to someone abroad for family far away

bitcoin is still on the go only. bitcoin on hardware wallet will continue for transaction

[Dakandikid]

So if the bitcoin isn't in a hard wallet, and the internet goes down, then it is essentially lost?

In my opinion, I think If internet goes down , Bitcoin cannot use for transaction. It is my opinion.

well, let just say without the airplane or ship or a car you cant travel abroad. and one can just imagine a life without money, difficult right. bitcoin without the internet is definitely a dangerous game, if especially the individual or person has it not on a hard wallet it means you will lose everything and won't be able to trade or do any other transactions

You'd still have to wait for the transaction to be mined, which would require an internet connection at a minimum.  If the internet was gone, cryptocurrency is pretty much useless.  The internet will never be gone though, so it's a bit of a moot point.  People would riot if it suddenly disappeared.

Bitcoin is the best of the others, bro, stay ahead because bitcoin is the leader in cryptorency, so for the future of bitcoin, it is like a storm, it continues to lead bitcoin

I think your question seems weird. Do you think our technology cannot save the Bitcoin data? It should be any ways to save the Bitcoin. The hardware wallet or other ways can be done by many smart people around the world.

Yes, someone will save Bitcoin, altcoins, and also blockchain technology if nuclear war happens. Trillions people in this world will prevent the war, so at least I believe it will happen not in the near future.

I think Bitcoin cannot be used if the internet goes down. Because Bitcoin need connection for their transaction.

Bitcoin without the internet will not work well. This means that bitcoin trading will drop further, and bitcoin will become a waste because it has no value. Everyone will lose their money before they sell the bitcoin they have held. And this means that the crypto market is dead.

If no internet, it doesn't work totally mate. But I don't think it will be a waste. Bitcoin will continue after the war.

Bitcoin enthusiasts certainly never let its existence lost. In my understanding, war may destroy homes or population, but technology continues to survive as long as people alive.   

Don't think too much about this, just wasting your time discussing about something that doesn't necessarily happen.

If internet goes down, I think You cannot do transaction with bitcoin. It is my opinion.

[dentolas]
