>will be more of a transfer of your consciousness

Sounds like a copy, not a transfer. If you didn't physically transport the atoms, the matter, you would end up with two duplicates living at different places and time, and with different ways of thinking after the copy, as the living experiences will diverge from that moment.

This unless you exterminate the original with each copy. Also should be considered each copy may lose information, degrade (signal integrity through distance, number of travels, and so on).
