‘Internet-less transactions’ on the Sui blockchain
Beyond gaming, Mysten Labs is also pushing the boundaries of blockchain technology with its innovative approach to offline crypto transactions for Sui blockchain.
The offline transactions dubbed “internet-less transactions” use mobile networks and radio waves to enable crypto transactions without relying on traditional internet connectivity.
This technology is particularly beneficial for unbanked communities and regions with limited access to the internet.
By utilizing alternative communication channels such as mesh networks, satellites, and radio, Sui aims to make crypto transactions accessible even in the most challenging environments.
Sui blockchain has already tested this alternative mode of communication, and it is “already working,” according to Mysten Labs’ co-founders Abiodun.
The team is now working on integrating the technology into IoT devices, which could also benefit Decentralised Physical Infrastructure (DePIN) projects, which Sui is also exploring.
(DePIN) projects are poised to revolutionize various industries, including cloud computing.
Sui’s approach to integrating blockchain technology extends to Decentralized Physical Infrastructure (DePIN) projects, which are poised to revolutionize various industries, including cloud computing.
By using mesh networks and other innovative solutions, Sui aims to bridge connectivity gaps and support decentralized infrastructure, aligning with the broader trend of incorporating blockchain technology into everyday applications.
