How To Get The Next 1 Billion People Online
summary
Claims a path to bring ~1 billion more online by monetizing spare home bandwidth and creating a decentralized VPN mesh that cannot be centrally shut off. Uses the PKT blockchain with a proof‑of‑work that encrypts routing, market pricing for access, and peer Wi‑Fi sharing. Ships a plug‑and‑play box called the Packet Cube that runs the node, pays hosts in PKT and can auto‑pay ISP bills, and points to exchanges like Bittrex Global and Bitmart for token liquidity.
