Buy more bitcoin, and then travel anywhere in the world that is safest.
EMP = No Electronics. Bitcoin will be the last of your worries. You'll want guns, ammo, an underground shelter with air filtration, generators with fuel to last a long time, maintenance supplies for equipment, food & water, precious metals, etc.

I have a fort made from discarded Flex magazines, and a couple of slightly expired boxes of MetRx. I'll be ok.

With the latest metamyosyn protein technology? It’ll never expire.

Nothing. I wouldn't believe it would actually happen.

idk probably get on the best awailable form of transportation and move as far away from the nuke site as possible

the further away from the nuke site the less radiation exposure. Simple as that

Fortress doesn’t sweat some nuclear armageddon horseshit.

Let ‘em fly.

If I’m nuked, well, there ya go. If I am not, clear the deck, because now Fortress is a nuclear-fuelled turbo beast bent on destruction and comeuppance.

I’m good either way.

We have nothing to fear but fear itself.

Bomb shelters were popular in the 1950's. There was plenty of plans available in stuff like Popular Mechanics and other sources. When I bought my house it was built on land where an old house was that they took down. An old man knocked on my door after living there about 6 months and he told me he knew the owner of the old house and that he built an underground bomb shelter. We went out in the back and there was nothing but woods. He couldn't find it and said it looked nothing like that 50 years ago. It was fairly hard to find when he built it but the woods were cut down then. His account intrigued me but looking around I thought he was just mistaken or a whack job.

My son in law bought a chain saw to cut some trees down in his back yard but he asked me if I wanted some trees cut down. The trees were making a mess of my pool and giving it too much shade. While I was at work he went nuts with his new toy. I was in shock how much he took down. I fenced in the pool but I owned the land that was woods past the fence maybe 100 feet. I was pissed how much he took down. Looked like a bomb hit the yard.

Rooming around looking at the destruction I stepped on something that I immediately knew wasn't the dirt floor. It was metal. It had a old thick pad lock on the metal door. Maybe it was three feet by four feet. Covered with dirt and growth. Called my son in law and he came with bolt cutters. The lock was so thick we couldn't cut it but he put two pipes on the handles for more leverage. Took a crow bar to loosen the hinges up so we could open it. The door was seriously heavy.

I could barely make out the stairs. The stairs went maybe 10 feet down. Water damage and soot from mud was apparent as well as a moldy smell. I went down while he stayed above ground. The wall that were brick were dirt stained with some  growth but it wasn't that bad. It led to a room. Inside were canned goods from I guess was the 50's from the few cans I could make out. Most of the labels were gone. Found what looked like water containers that were long dry even though they were sealed. Noticed a hand crank. I think it was to provide oxygen. I later found a metal pipe in the woods that must have been how air was pumped in as needed. Old army type cots were down there with military green wool blankets. Found what I think is called a  rocket radio or something like a crystal radio that didn't require a power source.  A nice stash of .22 long rifle ammo but no firearms. Walking to the end there was another escape hatch.  There was a wooden chair structure with a hole in it.  I think it was a crude toilet. The hole went deep into the earth maybe seven feet. Might have been deeper when it was originally made. Also found books and magazines. It was fun looking through an old Sears catalog. Shocked most were readable. The place had a stench. I assume some water got in it through the years. There was a box of candles. A bunch of tools were also found. I wonder what he had down there originally and what was removed through the years?

Took me awhile but I tracked down what remaining family he had. They all claim they knew little about him but one offered he worked for the government doing an unknown job after serving in the military for many years.  The guy was born 1906 from what I could find.

I kept it a secret from my neighbors and most of my family. If a nuclear attack happens I don't need the whole neighborhood trying to get in bomb shelter. It's really well preserved considering it's age. Could it take a direct hit even though many feet of dirt is over the sturdy structure? Of course not but if it hits many miles away it could definitely could help the situation.  Today I would add gas mask filtration, iodine tabs, portable solar panels and other items. The ammo would be .22lr, 12 gauge, 9mm and .223's. A water filtration would be added too. The lights would be battery with very small solar panels that hopefully would blend in the woods. The entrance and escape doors would have to have dirt on them with seeds to camo them in the woods. I have my thoughts how do it after going down there.

I would watch 99% act like a bunch of spastics.

From what social media has shown me:

One random person that nobody knows in a country that 80% of Americans have NFI where it is geographically located will die from the nuke.

Americans then take to social media all posting how they almost died in a nuke dropped in the county next to them.

In the tail end it evolves into Americans saying the victim dropped the nuke on themselves as a false flag.

This ends with a national remembrance day for transexual lesbian gay men who were impacted by the nuclear fallout.

Very naive to think that in the event of a nuclear war, there will be no internet or no power. The word is a big place. We have many energy generating devices large and small, and connected devices and chips in cars, phones, computers, servers, appliances, satellites, all over the world, below earth -  even in space. Gold will be in demand to, but gold is heavy, cannot be easily subdivided, and is very difficult to transport across boarders and new countries, easy to physically seize etc.

The most important thing in terms of preservation of life and safety, (other than in the immediate aftermath of a bombing which happens to be in lethal proximity), will be to be able to move to a safe location and have access to globally fungible assets.

My plan is to get on a plane with my family and to travel south for a two week vacation, which will turn into short term disability should something happen with Russia. Wife and I already have a plan... where/when to be when something goes down, when to have all the valuables in a bag, as well as clothes and when to purchase the tickets and the rest of the logistics. The area I live in will for sure get nuked because we have a nuclear plant nearby, as well as a small military base.

My opinion is that, if your plan is to leave, when the US ambassador to Russia or China gets expelled, it's time to go online and purchase tickets to fly south of the equator either that very same day or the day after. With a little bit of luck I'll be landing in Buenos Aires by the time NYC is turned into a giant sheet of glass.
