I think if world war iii happened then bitcoin and other crypto will be useless, even cash will be useless maybe we can exchange some food using gold, when war is happen nobody will care about money or cash the people will prefer to stock food and other things for surviving

What if World War 3 breakout ?

Do you expect bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to go down in price ? As people will swtich to hard cash or gold?

Note : There are wide power outages, servers getting down, no electrictiy and everything bad you can expect if WW3 happens 
Surely bitcoin price will down and bitcoib will be worthless but only for a while after everything back goes well again. I guess many people will buy physical gold because gold can be another money when fiat money will be worthless too when war.
Yes, another war will end the human race completely when we are considering the atom evolution of any country's protection capabilities. The internet and its most required thing of power supply are sensible to get collapsed on atomic war so bitcoin will not survive a war. What would be the point of survival of bitcoin when there will be no possibility of survival of human itself.

There will be no war that will happen. With just one bomb going off, a country will be eased in an instant. I don't anything will be valuable if you live except the food and water which are the immediate need of the people. Its definitely not easy to live when you are dependent to internet already like the rest of us here but you'd rather eat and drink something than keeping your bitcoin.

Bitcoin will be among the many things to collapse as our generation relies on such technologies. I think we would revert back to the barter system for trade, imo precious stones/metals and food will be the main commodities to hold and trade with.

I think every commodity that is considered luxurious like gold, jewels, computers would go down in price. People tend not to care about stuff like investments when bombs are falling on their heads.
Also in every world war there were countries that stayed outside of the conflict. It's possible bitcoin would thrive there.

Even though I'm holding a small amount of bitcoins and I trust cryptocurrencies , I can't say that bitcoins will be used after WWIII , the same scenario will happen like the other wars , gold will simply be the only thing that worth anything. I found it impossible for gold and silver to lose value , It's the only thing that has been used for thousands and thousands of years and still being used right now.

I never thought of such a development. But you're absolutely right. Gold will be the only valuable asset. Not that gold, which we are trading on the stock exchange. And now the physical bullion

It already began in 2012 and is in progress until now only thing is that countries with nuclear capability are not using their bombs because it will result in their own demise. so if you wanted to know what happens now is a good time since we're in middle of it.

Note : There are wide power outages, servers getting down, no electrictiy and everything bad you can expect if WW3 happens 

When its war people think about food and shelter, how to protect themselves. Piece of bread will worth more then cash and bitcoins, one bullet and gun will worth a lot as well, but that is in areas where is war. I don't expect all world to be warfront, there will always be piece in some countries and continents.
And after all that shit everything will be fine again, history can teach us that after every big war society is making progress, maybe after ww 3 we can expect new monetary system and bitcoins as main global currency.

Just like you said, after all that war the whole world will eventually be okay again and there may even be a new monetary system which *can* be bitcoins. With that thinking, someone who has food can hold it for a while and then sell it for a good amount of bitcoins later. It would be absurd to exchange it for cash because you don't know what would be the value of your fiat after the war.

On a side note, I'm thinking there's no safe place at all when there's a world war. Because you know.. World war. That basically means the majority of the world have war. Supposed that there's a safe place, for example, it's on Iceland, and you live in Taiwan, you wouldn't be able to get there anyway so you better just dismiss the idea of it.

your question is a duplicate!
and as i said in the other useless imaginary situation i have to say in times of war specially when things are horrible such as being in world war, people are not thinking about saving money, investing, holding gold, bitcoin, etc. instead they think about survival and that would be the only thing in their mind.

when you don't have anything to eat, and at any second you can die, you are not going to be thinking about where to store my bitcoins!

Yes it is. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will go down to it maximum dump because that will be chaotic and the investors not only virtual money and also in other kind of stocks,forex etc.. will panic and sell their shares or stocks to get their money because world war 3 is not a simple scenario.

If world war 3 happened we will go back to a bartering system, dollars will be useless, and the same can be said about gold and bitcoin, after some time maybe gold will make a comeback but right after the war the most important things will be food, weapons, ammo, alcohol, drugs and stuff like that.

This reminds me I should be stocking up honey, vodka and silver.


Back to topic, bitcoin could still be useful, even rise in price, in areas that are not yet affected by the war. Should an area enter the conflict though, it can no longer be assured. Bitcoin would be the last on people's minds and even having electricity and internet might not be enough. You can bring your bitcoins with you though when you flee your country, so that's good.

The biggest question of course would be, would there be humans left to use bitcoins? Just a nuclear war between India and Pakistan could already lead to severe changes to the climate, just imagine bombs from the other nuclear armed nations coming off.

The world is very globalized at the moment, so I have reason to believe that such event would not shut down the internet in the world, or something like that. In addition, this would bring instability to fiat currencies, and thus the demand for cryptocurrencies would increase.
Regarding gold, logistics and security costs to store value in this type of asset are very high, and Bitcoin also brings good points with regard to the ease of being transferred over the internet.

It is obvious, bitcoin will be never be the focus of the people. They will be busy saving their life and protecting their countries.
Who cares about the bitcoin price and the other cryptocurrencies. I think even in these forum there will be only a few thst will be online talking about the war not the bitcoin price.
They will care about how will they eat and will stock a lot of food. I think bitcoin will be worthless that time.

Well if there's no electricity than there is no computer usage and internet and therefore bitcoin would be useless. Maybe it can be helpful After the WW, since war torn countries would fall into hard economy times and bitcoin may be able to soften that a little.

i am agree with this and we should be back into the pre historic moment and we only use traditional thing to do something in our life. i think if world war third is happen, then the impact will be bigger than world war two because each country have new weapon with the highest and the new technology so they can send their missile into every where they want and it will accurate to make a bad impact to other countries. beside that, they can use their robot to destroy one by one their enemy so they can win the war with easy.

As general war and crises in a country would probably help Bitcoin rise. World War 3 is impossible without near or total destruction of humankind and most other mammals so I would suggest if we have WW3 then it will be game over for all currencies and stores of wealth. The people who survive will need to forage for food. Now lets say no one in the southern hemisphere gets nuked in WW3 which could be quite likely (maybe ignoring Australia) I still imagine that the fall out from 1000 nuclear bombs (some 1000x larger than have ever been seen before) would cause black skies, and nuclear fall out for years making crops fail, people die of malnutrition. When krakatoa a volcano last erupted it caused the Irish potato famine and the world wide temperature to drop by 1.2C for the next year due to lack of sun getting through the atmosphere.

Power outages? People would use generators. Bitcoins would skyrocket in price because certain fiats would be worthless. So it's all relative. Your bitcoins won't be able to buy you more but they'll be worth 100,000 USD. That's what I see happening. With trump in office this is inevitable so we'll have our answer in the next few months.

Is that your projection if ever that happen dudes/ Bitcoin will be worth 100, 000usd. anyway nothing to loose if I hold on to that things. Cheesy
By the way in my sight, world war 3 in my opinion will not going to happen anymore. And if ever happen it will surely all bitcoin enthusiast will be happy. Cheers! Cheesy
