Yes, if humans had the ability to yell at 20 others at a time and perform SHA in their heads.

Well I did say like Bitcoin, instead of SHA what if we had a proof of work system more friendly to an environment without computers. Like what would be possible the human mind or a mechanical calculator. How long it takes to move information without computers as you pointed out is slow also. So we would have to change to make it work also work.

I was thinking if somehow we did not have computer anymore could we come up with a system like Bitcoins.
