as far as the information I can get, if the internet dies then all activities will be completely paralyzed including blockchain and people will lose money/assets/coins/jobs related to internet.

You know this not only about crypto/ crypto projects, but about fiat money also. Today everything is heavily depends on the Internet and, of course, on the electricity. A lot of people have a remote work now, receive money on cards, so in cases when electricity is off and the Internet is disconnected, they have no access to their money at all. So in fact at first we need to worry about the absence of electricity so as “no electricity - no Internet – no opportunities to make transactions (crypto/fiat), to work etc.”.

Yeah, well, Barack Obama signed the Internet Kill Switch into law back in 2011.
It's going to happen in the next 2,3,or 4 years. Followed by the release of the "REAL" viral attack as Covid-19 was just a cover tactic to mandate the injections and a prelude to a host of viruses the US government has in storage, some which are a thousand times worse than COVID-19.
When you see the drones flying over, spraying the cities, then you'll know it has begun.  Cry

Could be a possible breakthrough of someone out there in creating such transactions with the use of only mobile number. Here in my country, there is a payment system that only requires SMS number to send money, but still that requires an internet for moving around the mobile app, so technically it still requires internet, but it should be close for a possible transaction within only the network service provider.
How convenient would that be if it became a reality, lol?

If transactions on Crypto can be done without the internet of course the project will still exist to this day because if that happens then the project will be of great interest to many investors, but Crypto runs on a blockchain network where all transactions use the internet network so if there is projects without internet are they part of the Crypto family?
There are studies that they're trying to send transactions through signals. Not exactly as the internet but like radio waves and other means of signals. I don't know the exact details of it but just read it elsewhere that it's going to be possible in the future. Well, if that happens then that breaks the idea of what we're worrying about sending transactions offline. It's going to happen and we just have to wait until happens.

Oh. That would be very impossible. I can't think of any possibilities that a transaction can exist without the use of internet during this digital age. And if ever in the near future internet goes down, l don't think professionals in tech industries would took a long time to fix it. They will find a way, and there will always be a way. So you don't really have to worry about that kind of stuff now.
Internet will probably not go down for long. The people now went crazy even just a minute of not having internet so Companies and other institutions will be finding ways to fully maintain the system. Whenever the internet there will be no transactions to happen and if there’s any  abnormalities within that time will need to be track. In this era we’re internet is considered essential it keeps each economy growing that it should be a priority to not be exposed in any down time.

Actually technically it is not possible to fully shut down the internet. If someone wants to do that he needs to cut off the submarine cables that connect internet networks all over the world. I think it's technically impossible. Now SpaceX planning to provide internet data even without any cables. They already launched a program about it. So the more day will pass technology will find a way to protect itself from any disaster.

Although it is necessary to protect oneself against an eventual global internet crash or possibly also a power outage, it is necessary to emphasize that enormous measures can be taken to avoid it, the way that radio waves can make the transmission possible is being studied. communication with to be able to operate with crypto, although it would be very difficult because the miners would stop working and that becomes a major problem, they may have many ways to continue on the network through a battery bank, electric plates, Huge boosters, but I don't think this is enough.

if the internet dies everything related to the internet will die and no longer work, including krypto, because all transactions start from the internet network, if it happens like that then everything will end.

yes , Obviously, without Internet access, the possibility to send and receive Bitcoins is significantly limited. In more general terms, Internet shutdowns weaken innovation and undermine users’ confidence in the future of digital currency.



Generally, innovation now is more on relying on how internet works, every transaction
or most of the transactions are being done online, it will surely affect the entire ecosystem of every
businesses who upgraded their system.

Crypto and all those digital systems are also not exempted. It will paralyze the transactions.

Is there any crypto project that can transacts without the internet? I heard there was one two years ago I couldn't remember the name again but why isn't such project doing so well today? If the internet goes down in future this type of project will be useful don't you think?
Try to find another project, what is the name of the project you mean, without electricity, I actually think that's nonsense, indeed there are projects that operate without fuel such as electricity, solar power and hydro power, electricity is important for human life including projects, in my opinion without electricity everything is destroyed, except for humans who survive in traditional ways such as ancient humans.

I can't even imagine how life is without the Internet. We are all very dependent on this, and now all the main technologies are tied to the use of the world wide web. I think that plans to prevent such a dangerous moment have already been developed.

Personally, I have not heard of such projects for which the Internet is not needed. I can only say that such projects probably exist and they are not particularly popular. So at the moment the Internet is needed as a white light. The Internet is the key to a successful business in any industry, especially now the world of digital technologies. And the Internet is simply necessary, it is an important part of the entire life of a person.

In my opinion, if the internet dies in the future, there will no longer be cryptocurrencies and other types of digital money. because all of this can work because of the internet network. but I'm not sure if the internet will die in this world. because the internet is the best invention capable of connecting many things. and now everyone has depended on the internet network. so if the internet dies, then we will return to the past life.

Of course, if there is no internet network, we cannot do cryptocurrency transactions, because crypto really depends on the internet and electricity.
Actually, not only crypto cannot run without the internet, but all businesses that depend on the internet will also be paralyzed. The effect is very large
if the internet does not exist in the future, because now the internet has become a basic human need. So I believe that internet dead in the future is
very unlikely to happen, no matter how many people are harmed if the internet dies. After all I never imagined having to live without the internet,
it would be boring and more difficult to live if there was no internet. I really hope there won't be internet dead in the future.
You are right, every crypto transaction requires the internet. Even cryptocurrencies can grow and rapidly because of the internet. Many crypto projects that we know today rely heavily on the internet. Even today the crowded metaverse relies heavily on the internet for its progress. If the internet dies then it will all be over for crypto.

What @Ucy said, might be a thing for the future - a currency that relies not completely on internet and electricity but let us see what development we can see in such a project if they really work out something worth using.
A currency that allows you to use it without the Internet or completely without electricity is almost any fiat currency. It was invented long ago.



Well, just in general, a rather strange topic for discussion, but what if ... What if "1" and "0" disappear from the memory cells ... What if the quartz in the processor goes on vacation ... Well, it's really crazy to discuss, agree ?

I am not sure that people would even think first about their portfolio when the internet dies or just went non-existent for a while.
That is what I tried to point out to all the red-pilled newbies in this thread posting their conspiracy theory like hot cakes. If the internet would really go down it will be a war like chaos. Portfolios can go to hell, people would need to save their own lives, we have so many devices and systems that are relying on internet.

If you talk about a nationalized internet or intranet then in such countries it can be controlled, but to use bitcoin one needs access to the real internet and not intranet.

If this thing happen in the future, I ma pretty sure that the Altcoins or Bitcoin will surely be dead instantly, that's the reality in which we need to accept it. due to nowadays, internet wherever we go it is always part of the business in the entire world now. Especially, in terms of communication in different countries and others as well.
Hope you are aware that you will be able to move Bitcoin offline and you only need internet to validate the transaction in the block, first and foremost there wont be a situation where there wont be internet for an extended period of time and if you want to make a transaction during internet outage you can do that and once the internet is online it will be validated.
Yeah, this is how the transaction works. Maybe there are countable number of locations around the globe where the internet connectivity have gone down with time. Rest of the world with time the advancement and ease of internet usage have made more people make use of internet. Each and every business is now connected with the connectivity, even if it is offline store there'll be a desktop to manage the stocks available and those need to be bought. So, internet won't be an issue with bitcoin anytime.

well, if that happens, all I can think about is the collapse of the cryptocurrency world. not only crypto, but almost various industries currently use the internet as a channel for expanding their business. however, especially for crypto, even if there is crypto that can be used offline, I think people will lose interest in it. however, I firmly believe that the condition of the internet disappearing from the world is very unlikely, even in this day and age.

Collapse will be the most common thing that will happen, most of the transaction nowadays are being done online, internet is a powerful tool to deal between borders, it's tough to see if by chance this really takes place. Many businesses will suffer not just crypto, but most if not all businesses are tied with the use of the internet.

I also believe that way, removing internet will make people suffer. Only those who have a lot of reserves can continue having a comfortable life, but for most, it will risk their financial state.
