Elon Musk should put a full bitcoin node on the moon


Elon Musk should put a full bitcoin node on the moon as the first step to show the world that he can build a secure data center on space (the moon), and Bitcoin network is super resilient than any other network. The latency between moon and earth is only 1.3 seconds, which is manageable.Some reasons why this would be the coolest "to the moon" project for SpaceX:Low maintenance: Bitcoin is designed in such a way that the same basic hardware can run the full-node for a very very long time. No worry about hardware obsoletion. Bitcoin node requires very little energy and emits very little heat.Lightweight: The whole Bitcoin node system + solar battery + antenna can be less than a few kilograms. This cool project would be not too costly for him.Reliability: The moon visible part is always facing down to earth, to his Starlink satellites.Put SpaceX, Starlink, and Bitcoin logo on the machine. How cool is that as an advertisement?Next step is a small mining rigs on the moon, and then a full-blown data center to store important data for human. Free solar power and low temperature. Think about the Github Arctic Code Vault project.How cool it is to connect this thing to his Starlink project? Everyone who signed up with Starlink gets 1 MB space on the moon for free!Let's upvote this to get Elon noticed! via /r/Bitcoin https://bit.ly/3sQ1DBF
