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?
this is out of my mind mate. as far as I know the internet is a means of communication in the digital world that is used for daily needs and if the internet is possible to die then there will be no activity in the digital world. Internet one of the second life besides survival in the normal world.

the problem is that until now no one has been able to make this even though I've read that there are several companies that are trying to do this but until now it's still a pretty difficult thing to realize.
The internet is still the main life not only in a project but almost all daily life such as work and trade and services now cannot be separated from the internet.
I can't imagine if the internet really died.

The only thing I can think of are "paper wallets", which might be the most likely basis of a possible solution to this challenge.

That method is kind old now, so I am not sure if people are still storing them these days.

But wouldn't it be interesting to reconsider this possibility? Maybe the paper wallet concept can be updated to fit todays needs.

Now that I researched few articles and posts from Reddits, they were all misleading making me think that it is possible to send BTC with SMS. Turns out it was only a notification all along.

Anything can happen anytime but we are in the 21st century not in ancient times there are several resources available to restore if there is an issue as such. I don't think any project is working on offline transaction approval. I believe the Internet is a must to make crypto transactions. Internet is a part of everyone's life. If any project starts approving offline transaction that will be highly demandable in my opinion.

Internet helps a lot to make cryptocurrencies awesome over the world from the past even until this day. If there will be no internet I think cryptocurrencies world is very different. We may not see transactions from one place to another. We may not countries are in favor with cryptocurrencies. Internet is necessary to produce more development and reach the people. For me, without internet it will be very difficult to interact.

Its kinda hard to do, blockchain needs a connection to verify any transaction over the network. If no connection, then no one can verify it, means its cannot be processed.
That is very clear, because basically it has been seen that every Blockchain always needs a strong network to get something they need done, so there is no story to build a crypto project without the internet.
Not about the internet but can we build a network base on other forms of communication? Say, someone, launch a satellite that take this exclusive signal to keep and maintain an exclusive blockchain. I don't know how dumb or possible my question looks since I'm very noob about this but I think if a crypto project is able to do this, they don't have to worry one day, the internet around the world go down.

year, to me it might be possible but it will be difficult to come up with crypto given the blockchain. The activities of the hackers are another point of concern among others. However, I will go for it if such can stand the test of time.

I haven't heard of any coin that doesn't rely on the internet. I think that's one of the weaknesses of cryptocurrency that we have to consider. If there would be one who wouldn't rely on the internet, I'm sure that it will make a big noise. Blockchain always relies on the internet and that's its original characteristic.

It will eliminate the reach of communities around the world. It would make cryptocurrency just a code with no value. It could be said that this is the beginning of the destruction of cryptocurrencies.

i guess no crypto project will run if the internet dies,
let alone crypto, for the banking world it will probably become primitive again because the technology that is usually used stops

Not sure if there are such thing as alternatives for the internet though.
If there are right now, it is mostly just going back which is the utilization of phone lines, but given of how internet already brought us convenience, pretty sure that many "innovators" that you're mentioning would still stick on to the internet.

Blockchain is very dependent on the internet, if the internet is down then we can be sure we cannot use cryptocurrencies, this is what makes many countries worry about the internet so that many countries always innovate to provide better internet services, the impact of the internet is very large and of course not only cryptocurrencies affected but almost all transactions today are highly dependent on the internet.

Yes, and in the end cryptoqurrency holders, stock companies and some businesses in the digital world will stop instantly, of course it can be fatal, especially not being able to cash out your investment. sometimes I also think about this if in the future the internet dies then there is no hope anymore.

Looks like another idea to get everyone to invest in their project if they really can make something like this where you can transact online and convert your cash conveniently without using the internet. maybe something like a paper wallet or some printed check from withdrawn cryptocurrencies where you can put any amount you like. Just like a cheque where you can cash it out in any bank in all countries.

nowadays the internet has become a top priority in life like electricity and this network has been used to make it easier for everyone the dark period is still long !
if there is a product that offers offline transactions it can be ascertained it's not cryptocurrencies ,there will be a hack and will not grow in the future and if any crypto offers that how to confirm the transaction if there is no internet using the sun UV rays?

No project will work without internet.And for the assure thing, the internet will not exit the world. Because many people working like a freelancer to earn some money from the internet.In addition, many government working in online portals now. So nothing will replace the internet. May be in future.If some home happened all are adapted to it. With all concern internet is became a essential and base to the modern world.

I don't think I've ever heard of a crypto project that can be used without using the internet. Don't we all know that crypto currency is an internet-based and online currency.
