At the very beginning I was skeptical about that, but know that I put in perspective that it means anyone in the World could use Bitcoin even without an Internet connection, that is simply awesome. And just imagine the news coverage we would get...

This seems to be great news. But I say this with caution because I cannot fully comprehend, how transactions can be processed without Internet.

This sounds great, but have a thing I still do not understand. That is, if there is no internet, how can we make transactions and how to link accounts on the trading floor. This makes me doubt this information. Is it real or just PR? But if that is true then surely the btc community will be very happy, so that btc is hardly forbidden  or die ...

how can we catch the "Bitcoin Sputnik" signal ?

ps-> maybe a nickname like "tesla black knight satellite" would be more funny ...

The origin of the Black Knight legend is often "retrospectively dated" back to natural extraterrestrial repeating sources supposedly heard during the 1899 radio experiments of Nikola Tesla  Roll Eyes Cool

Good.  And again, who is blockstream and the reason for this selfless help?

btw, great way to capture entire BTC traffic  Cry Cry  cough   NSA cough
Blockstream is a company that employs several Bitcoin Core developers?

Also what are you even talking about? All Bitcoin transactions are recorded in the blockchain. What will the NSA "capture" exactly? Everything is already public.
Did I just see someone comment that people will be able to make transactions without internet? That sounds kinda crazy. What do you mean? How can you send Bitcoin to someone that leaves a far distance without the use of internet. I don’t think that’s really possible.

Awesome project! the objective was great.

While looking on group's Blockstream Developers, engineers and members, I could simple say, they we're able to execute the project smoothly.

This is very cool.
Having a bitcoin satelite is another milestone for the community.
Making a transaction without internet is a big help to us. Like many places in the world are not yet reach of internet and internet is the mainstream why many others are not adopting this so if we can have the satelite many will adopt and use this and the price will influence by the massive adoption.

this sounds awesome, i need to study it more. thanks for sharing OP.

Good.  And again, who is blockstream and the reason for this selfless help?

here is the live "BTC traffic":
https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions
you can also get this if you run a full node and watch your memory pool

and here is the history of "BTC traffic":
https://blockchain.info/blocks
you can also get this by running a full node and watching your blockchain

go ahead and "capture" it.

This is legit and exactly what we need to get 3rd world countries on board with BItcoin as most of them do not have reliable access to the internet in every home.

If the satellite mines bitcoin, will it mine bitcoins more quickly in orbit because of General Relativity?

If they are really launching the satellite then it is a new step in the case of bitcoin and if that could help bitcoin in the future and could help users then it is a really great thing,i am not sure how much money you need to send a satellite but i really appreciate if they are thinking about launching it.
