How can just two countries have such a big influence and break what we call the internet. I think that the idea is a little to far fetched

If it is a world war, it is not limited to 2 warring countries. World war means group of countries going up against another group of countries. And this kind of war can deliver massive damage to the world and the internet especially if they use weapons of mass destruction like nuclear war heads. You won't be thinking of internet by then, you will be running for your life if that happens.

Well if technology gets disrupted on a large scale and the earth is barely inhabitable from pollution, disease and famine, I don't think Bitcoin will be much around or worth anything. Let' hope the Human Race is more sensible than to become so stupid as to create another world war.

I am optimistic the Human Race will find a way to avoid another major world war.
The source of my optimism is having avoided watching the news for almost a whole week.

Lol yeah if a world war occurs naturally almost all countries in the world want to show off against their strength. good question. is it can you survive and still alive? lol

I think, as long as the blockchain is intact it can survive. But that would not be your primary concern if that kind of war broke out. You will be too busy surviving that you will not be thinking of money or bitcoin. Food and shelter will be your priority. And when everything calms down, internet connection and bitcoin can be rebuilt.

But it will take sometime before such will be rebuilt as everyone will rebuild the most important aspects of life first like food and shelter. Internet will be reestablished once people are already secured and stable.

I doubt that another World war will happen but if were that unfortunate, then since internet is a big part of BTCitcoin, it's usage will surely be limited a lot due to internet filtering, therefor it will be a lot harder to use it but not impossible so yes, it will survive if there will be a world war.

Bitcoin will be useless if there was a WWIII,everyones priority will be their lives and the food.
Internet on those days will be limited to government buildings.

Will humans survive?

LOL, but that's right. how could we think about butcoin will survive or not in world war III when the human think how to survive from the war?

so I think bitcoin has small possibility to survive in that war.

World War III broke out 6 years, huge disruption to everybody, there was limited nuclear bomb detonation in two smaller nations. Internet is in a state useable but not reliable.
Will Bitcoin survive? Will smuggler use Bitcoin to buy weapon, or gold to buy weapon?

I think bitcoin will more popular when World War III happened, and using bitcoin for payment like buying weapon, bomb or any war things. It's more easy to use bitcoin for payment when world war III happened.

This is good point, no bank can be trusted, but bitcoin can still be trusted.
I also see valid point from some other comments, countries may cut off ties with other nations for the security purpose, you know, make internet unreliable and broken.

I have doubt for WW3 in 10 years. If technology and internet survives after devastation of nuclear war maybe BTC can survive...

It could happen. because money can change that. everything can be bought by bitcoin. bitcoin facilitate the purchase of equipment that tool. but I hope that the third world war will never happen at all. it is very bad for the state on this earth.

Nope. All financial systems are kinda abstract. If the internet's looking shaky too then bitcoin is the last thing people are gonna hoard. I'm not selling you my bullets in the hope of a future revival.

Yes it would. Technology can be rebuilt, all you would need is to have at least 1 surviving full blockchain copy, to not lose all the record, so as long as 1 intact copy survives, it can go on. It's simply impossible that all copies ever of the blockchain disappear unless you blow the entire planet away, which is a pretty stupid method to kill Bitcoin.
