BITCOINCASH MESH NETWORK FLIPSTARTER FUNDED

The Bitcoin Cash Mesh Network Flipstarter #2 has successfully secured funding of 0.95 BCH (about $450 usd) for its mission to provide decentralized internet access in Cuba. The project is spearheaded by a 23-year-old local. The Mesh network, which operates on a decentralized topology, has been deployed using routers and Airmax antennas across six server rooms in the village. The network's resilience and efficiency make it a promising solution for areas with limited 4G/3G coverage. The project has also integrated Bitcoin Cash as a cost-effective payment solution after discontinuing BTC due to high fees. The project proves that BCH is an excellent fit for small local fundraising initiatives that leverage the low fees and accessibility of BCH as money for everyone.
