A breakthrough in blockchain technology is growing day by day, chatting and sending Bitcoin is possible without the need for a centralized Internet provider or even the grid, all with open source software and hardware.
The guys at Locha Mesh have managed to create the software, the protocol and the hardware needed for a flexible, decentralized, mesh device network capable of transmitting messages, data, Bitcoin transactions and services completely off the grid without having to rely on an Internet connection or even the power grid, for countries affected by disasters and for individuals and groups concerned about privacy.
Locha Mesh has developed the Turpial and Harpy devices that allow you to connect to Bitcoin's blockchain using short and long range radio waves. Currently they have synchronized the Bitcoin blockchain and are in process with the Monero blockchain.
Group chat, send SOS messages, without phone numbers or SIM cards. Use Locha Mesh to privately and securely communicate while on outdoor activities, crowded events, or hostile places.
Locha Mesh nodes create high bandwith long range decentralized radio networks to connect devices at up to 4km away from eachother, and relay information to reach longer distances.
Keep in touch with your love ones during power blackouts, natural disasters, or telecom infrastructure failures. Each Locha Mesh node can work independently on battery or solar power.
Monero's family is supporting this great project, which does not seek common funding, it would be a good time to support or participate in this breakthrough in blockchain technology.
Support, contribution and sponsorship information is available on your Github in English and Spanish, hardware specifications under construction to create your own DIY Locha Mesh device and much more open source software available.
