RE: Block Stream launches Bitcoin satellites to broadcast Bitcoin transactions from space! @BlockRush
Very interesting! Upvoted, Resteemed and followed! This initiative of truly censorship free blockchain and internet in general is great and all, but there still are costs/risks. For instance, solar flares do happen regularly and the maintenance/upkeep on those satellites may become quite expensive. Also, conflicts between global powers for the control over the signal distributing satellites may cause even more damage. Whoever controls the satellites/cables will control the blockchains and the internet.
