What?? Why?? Crypto is awesome! Just look at this:

In order for BTC to work as a medium of exchange, BOTH parties need - At a MINIMUM:

• Electricity
• Smart phone or computer - possibly both in some cases
• Bitcoin wallet / account -Email address
• Internet access
• Knowledge & understanding of how the BTC / blockchain system functions; at least enough to use it; enough to be comfortable to accept it.
• You either have to remember your wallet code / key (?) and/or write it down somewhere & hope you never lose it; hope it never gets lost or stolen, etc.

It doesn't get any more simple than that! Right??

And then when the grid goes down and you've got spotty electricity, zero WiFi, internet in general is a dream of the past, your bitcoin will be.....er.....oh, wait a sec......hmmm.....uh.....this is awkward.....
