@DIYbitcoin @slush @weedcoder Last tests of the hardware successfully achieved 7.16km distance at ~200kbps NLoS on the latest revision of the Turpial devices

Sadly we couldn’t afford paying the salaries of the 2 other full-time devs, so Luis was the only one working since early 2021

The 872 km fiber cable connecting Tonga to the outside world may have been broken by the eruption, per operator Southern Cross.

Unlike landing station power issues, physical cable repairs can take weeks depending on the depth of the damaged segment. Wishing for a speedy recovery

Can we communicate & trade if there’s no infrastructure or power grid? 🤔

@LochaMesh is a project to create the software, protocol & hardware for a resilient & decentralized #MeshNetwork!

@AlexCorvis84 @helium @thethingsntwrk Okay I understand better now, looks like great progress to me!

I am in the midst of testing the @LochaMesh and I'm wondering if you'd be interested in testing that as well?
I like the idea of Helium, but don't like how it's powered by the "Helium Blockchain".

What if I told you that, in the event of a mass internet outage, there’s a good chance that #Bitcoin would survive? The chance is real, thanks to Open source projects like @Locha_io Join us on the 11th to learn more https://t.co/iVRwIbh1AO

[Leo Oenoɱaus @xmrhaelan]

To clarify (because the article doesn’t very well), @Locha_io the company that was producing Turpial devices is halting. @LochaMesh the open-source project is still alive.

#cypherpunks #hamradio unite! Let’s keep this project going.

[JuellZ3⚡️ @juellz3]

We all need @Locha_io communicators to prevent the censorship!!!!!

[Decentralized @decentralized_b]

Great to read
"cypherpunks have reminded us through their ideas that if we really wish to have permissionless freedom, we should not only encrypt our conversations and wait for enough confirmations, but also run our own hardware"

Congrats @randybrito
