Bitcoin being the flagship cryptocurrency, did change the financial paradigm for good; other than that, it was admitted as a revolution in the digital financial space as well. Literally, thousands of different crypto tokens have come after Bitcoin did make its debut, but all of it started from Bitcoin being the pioneer of the crypto realm.
An active internet connection is required to complete any transaction on the blockchain network; it doesn’t matter who it belongs to or which cryptocurrency is running on it. But now, that is not a requirement for completing a Bitcoin-oriented transaction, as you can literally do so with the help of a single text message.
Send and Receive Bitcoin without Internet
Kgothatso Ngako, a South African developer, has developed a completely new protocol from scratch that is cellular in nature and is able to harness the power of GSM networks for the sake of executing a Bitcoin-oriented transaction.
The need for an active internet connection is not complimentary now. But before you ask or investigate about this system, such as has it gone online yet or not? It hasn’t at the moment, and a consensus is required by all the Bitcoin miners to make this protocol an active part of the Bitcoin blockchain that is still underway.
Just think of the possibilities this thing will have, going from a completely internet-based system to coming onto your mobile phones and the GSM network; this thing really has the potential to further on-board at least a million more users on the Bitcoin network as the preliminary requirement of having an active internet connection has been scratched out completely.
This truly is a revolution that was not asked or inquired about activities within the Bitcoin community, but someone out there was insightful enough to build the program from scratch and to make it a worthy addition to Bitcoin’s blockchain.
As soon as the Bitcoin community of miners approves this protocol, there will be an official update following the proper affiliation of this system with Bitcoin’s central blockchain, where all Bitcoin users will be able to utilize the program to the best of its capabilities.
