Offline Zcash: a payment mesh for when the signal disappears
An open-source project presenting a way to pass Zcash payments between nearby devices offline, then settle them through an internet-connected gateway.
- For
- Groups needing payments during internet outages
- Worth noticing
- The instructions name Logos Basecamp, Mac Apple silicon or recent Linux, and a gateway with internet access.
Field notes
The setup separates ordinary users from a gateway device, which the instructions say needs internet access while the group shares a local network. The listed computer options are a Mac with Apple silicon or recent Linux, and the installation flow runs through Logos Basecamp's package settings. The homepage links to a GitHub source repository and a testnet faucet; the extracted material does not verify the described privacy or relay behavior.
