I mean the country would be willing to take TAXES in: gold, silver, btc and their "old currency" THIS IS GOOD: It would only be an ADDITIONAL official currency. What does it take to make a currency an "official" currency? Would be enough if small state xy officially proclaims that it will optionally accept BTC for tax and other payments at a rate equivalent of 0.001USD/BTC?

@Inedible How about to run it on gold, silver and Bitcoins?

Ok, so if there would be anyone willing to do escrow... I could pay somebody part of price of the plane ticket - to Tuvalu, Tonga or any other "interesting" country... just to go there, and to try to talk to some officials about Bitcoins. Somebody with good talk and good PR for sure. The full plane ticket should be less than 10 btc. 1st Bitcoin from me. I could send even now - to escrow person. Who is willing to take a flight or to donate some Bitcoins?

@phelix
Who do you suggest for escrow?
|
|
|
since the "Principality of Hutt River" and "Freetown Christianiais" have been rejected. what about Pitcain Islands. The islands are inhabited by the descendants of the Bounty mutineers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitcairn_IslandsIt could be one of the easiest... But - Tonga could be better - it's more independent. Escrow anyone? I want to send 1st BTC!

You are free to declare yourself a country, anytime, and anywhere. However, nobody will take you seriously, which translates to the simple truth that you will have no legitimacy as a nation. http://www.wikihow.com/Start-Your-Own-CountryHow about - to convince 51% of citizens (Tuvalu / Nauru) - in legal campaign - to vote for Bitcoin President and Bitcoin Prime Minister?
