How do you get bitcoin to the moon? With a satellite. According to this article a company called blockstream has set up a satellite that will send and receive bitcoin information. That's right, a satellite. I do not know all the technicalities of it but as of now, it will reach two-thirds of the Earth's land and will continue to grow. How awesome is that. A global currency is one thing but when it is being stream from a satellite, you really have global coverage,
What strikes me is that people can just utilize satellites. Do you rent them like blockbuster video rented movies? Is there late fees? How much would that cost? Maybe we should rent our own. Anyways this is a big step in adoption of the coin. I remember reading before about satellites being set up to delivery free wifi around the world in 2020 and this, with the blockchain, can really lead to a decentralized world.
