Off grid message via satellite

in #bitcon15 days ago

I find this pretty amazing. Talk about moving away from reliance on other people and systems to ensure that things work.

Off grid message to satellite back down to earth, received.

One reason I'm intrigued by this is that Nikos' project is all about communicating and bitcoin but using ways to "do it" that are more self-sovereign. I did a little project I called "ecash by sound" at https://crrdlx.vercel.app/ecashsound/index.html It used psk31 to send sound that was picked up and transferred a few bitcoin sats to someone. The instance wasn't over radio waves, but it could definitely be done.

Nikos is going way next level, using radio waves and satellites in space to do this. Very cool.

I just checked out your HiveWiki. That was an idea I've been playing around with. I'll have to check it out and see what you've got on there. Perhaps more people need to hear about it. There should be source where anyone can learn anything they want about the Hive blockchain and its ecosystem, but everything seems to be scattered here and about. That's makes it difficult to find.

everything seems to be scattered here and about

This is exactly the case. Another hive wiki emerged later called Propolis which is neat because it is housed and functions on Hive itself. Also, I made a bot that anyone can get help by using the command ! help (without the space). It triggers the bot called @helphive which offers suggestions, and some real life volunteers will get back to the person. Try it if you wish.

Dude, you've created some really cool stuff. Too bad more people don't know about them.

!help

The help command actually didn't work. I'll need to try to fix that. It was supposed to reply here.

!HBIT

wesphilbin, you mined 0.9 🟧 HBIT and the user you replied to (crrdlx) received 0.1 HBIT on your behalf as a tip. You can receive 100% of the HBIT by replying to one of your own posts or comments. When you mine HBIT, you're also playing the Wusang: Isle of Blaq game. 🏴‍☠️ | tools | wallet | discord | community | daily <><

What's more, you found 1.0 ⚪ BLAQ pearl as a bonus treasure token!


Your random number was 0.08916423475899804, also viewable in the Discord server, #hbit-wusang-log channel. Check for bonus treasure tokens by entering your username at block explorer A, explorer B, or take a look at your wallet.

There is a treasure chest of bitcoin sats hidden in Wusang: Isle of Blaq. Happy treasure hunting! 😃 Read about Hivebits (HBIT) or read the story of Wusang: Isle of Blaq.

Doing a test here, ignore this: !help




Stuck on Hive? Include ! help (without a space) in a post or comment. ⚠️



@HelpHive picked up the ! help command. Some ideas if you need help...

  1. Get help from others: (1) The HelpHive team has been signaled. Wait for a reply from a team member. The team is made of volunteers who will try to answer questions or direct you toward an answer. Please be patient though, they are real people who work, eat, sleep, and lead real lives too! 🙂 The goal is to get back within 24 hours. (2) Join "The Terminal" server in Discord and ask there. The Terminal has friendly people whose top mission is to help Hive users every day.
  2. Help yourself: (1) Do a regular internet search. Be sure to include "Hive" in the query. (2) Let the HiveDesk AI tool by finguru do the heavy work for you. See an example. (3) Check the resources such as HiveWiki.
HelpHive volunteers: @crrdlx, @stayten, @wesphilbin, @balikis95, @kenechukwu97, @palomap3, @cocacolaron, @fjworld, @funshee, @memess - The HelpHive team could use your help! ⚠️ If you'd consider helping, contact crrdlx in a reply or at one of these contact methods.

Sorry, but one more test !help I hope this is the last one. SHOULD work here and post messge to discord.

I just fixed it. Here's an example of what it normally shows:https://peakd.com/@hiramtestwright/re-hiramtestwright-t6pq4r

Petty nifty.
