I read about blockstream some time ago: https://www.coindesk.com/blockstream-using-satellites-beam-bitcoin-earth/ https://www.coindesk.com/blockstream-using-satellites-beam-b... Here Adam Back said: "With a perpetual generator out back with a satellite dish, a Raspberry Pi by the generator, a local wi-fi hot spot, and the necessary software set up, you could be transacting globally with bitcoin." Anyone can explain me why is the need for a local wifi hot spot here? And how much does it normally cost to setup a satellite dish? Not to mention countries do have the ability to jam satellite signals.
