RE: Well I guess I should introduce myself...

Welcome to Steemit, River Wolf. About the virtual currency thing, I'm not sure if taking out the Internet or the power grid will be enough to stop cryptocurrencies. People have been working on solutions for that for a while, making devices that can transmit data over ham radio, so that might be a solution. Nevertheless, things are becoming more and more decentralised as we go on. People are getting solar panels on their homes, and setting up meshnets in some cities, so shutting down the Internet and power grid becomes less of a problem. I guess time will tell though.

Welcome again and have a good one

I have been researching that as well but thanks for the heads up. More than anything my concern is steemit currency being tied to the US dollar. If it does collapse, and in October there is a good chance of some bad news, then the currency will be as worthless as the US dollar will be.
The world meetings coming up, China has already hinted at it and the US dollar no longer being the petrodollar IS, in fact, on the table.
I guess only time will tell
