Title: Could bitcoin users get a piece of land somewhere?

and create their own state? If ISIS can do it... frankly I don't want to repay 100k of debt that the elected representative have loaded me with... (for their own benefits furthermore).

There is already a Bitcoin land: http://mw.micronation.org/wiki/Woodland_Patchwork (http://mw.micronation.org/wiki/Woodland_Patchwork)

The curious fact is that it is in Japan, the supposed land of mysterious Bitcoin inventor...  :)

I wonder about the authenticity of this micronation since there aren't any supporting articles or news clips. Anything investigatory into the claim that this is a real thing. I'd be surprised if the Japanese government openly allowed this sort of thing. I'd have to see some solid proof and evidence of its existence to take this wiki article seriously.

Own state creating would not be possible. But BTC users can implement BTC in some small country with the help from that country government. And then if people in that country would start to use BTC, government support - yes, after the time BTC can have great story. In reality this would be very difficult - in each country there are a lot of people - BTC implementation if funding is not state supported - cost a lot.

That is really amazing, I would love a little documentary about that place, not much something like 20 minutes. The next rise in price I'll go there for sure to greet and congratulate them. :D

If I recall correctly, Ecuador was planning on creating a cryptocurrency that could be used as legal tender, earlier this year. They were supposed to start using it by the end of the year, early next year - anyone know how that is going? Of course it would be to our advantage if they adopted Bitcoin instead, but it seems like a nice step.

They were/are planning on creating/implementing a digital currency that was not going to be secured by crypto - meaning it would have a central authority.

I personally do not see a benefit for "Bitcoin" to have it's own country as it is something that should be able to be used worldwide

I agree, as love is borderless, I can't predict who my daughter/son will love as such, all enemies of love must perish, because they may stand in the path of love of child what ever :). The Empire of Love TM.

Wat 4? Just use btc as money and forget about fiat.
Don't pay taxes either. Build a woodhouse in a forest and live there. And fuck the FRS.

Central authority.
Something which is allergic to all bitcoiners.
