So I have a question. If I had a private network, gateway connected to the Internet, and on that network I had a BTC fullnode. Then, the Internet goes down, but everyone on the network could still transact with each other; handled by the node. My question is, when the Internet connection is re-established do the transactions somehow sync with the greater block chain? Or am I misunderstanding everything I think I know (which is likely, lol)?
Playing around with openmanet. I'll be adding a node to the meshnet, and the gateway will provide access to the Internet. I'm just curious as to a worse case shtf scenario. Could we still use Bitcoin across an adhoc network? 🤔🤔
