 Would be a truly wild way to raise money for disaster areas actually. Have a disaster team with a “instant launch” communication node and a Ubiquiti with 5KM reach. Throw it up on a 20Ft extension pole, drop the mobile hydro unit somewhere and start mining while providing excess power for people to charge phones, and launch an open WiFi or maybe even just a cell repeater on the network. Legit could save dozens of lives with a setup like that, if it could be quickly deployed.
