Hello!

I wonder, is some FIDONET type service existing for countries where all telecom is disabled? Kind of "sneakernet" for large packets of messages to be delivered.

1- I write message to [username, address or hash], encrypt with public/private pair.
2- Trusted "sneakernet" collector with some software physically arrives and grabs my message, updates my 'ball' (or blob?) of crypted messages, in case other sneakernet collector comes.
3- Maybe when delivery is 100% confirmed this gets added to ball so it can be pruned?

And so on. Bitcoin style blockchain confirmation seems useful?

Does any service like this existing now?
