bit - derived from the word "bitcoin"
rustica - the Latin word for "country"

Bitrustica would be a virtual democratic country.

The government body could be made responsible for maximizing organization within the bitcoin community.

Maybe bitcoinpolice.org could be part of this.

...

Wirtland ['w¡rtlənd] (aka: Virtlando; Bиpтлaндия; Hayalistan) claims to be the world's first internet-based sovereign country. Wirtland is an experiment into legitimacy and self-sustainability of a country without its own soil

Bitrustica [bit'rustica]  (aka: Bitworld) COULD be a internet-based sovereign country, created to facilitate world wide bitcoin development, Bitrustica's citizen could vote on important political decisions bitcoin will soon need to make.




"
    O Bitrustica!
    Our home and native land!
    True patriot love in all thy sons command.

    With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
    The True Coin strong and free!

    From far and wide,
    O Bitrustica, we stand on guard for thee.

    God keep our land glorious and free!
    O Bitrustica, we stand on guard for thee.

    O Bitrustica, we stand on guard for thee.
"

Let's wage war in Wirtland, seize their servers and use them to generate our coins.
This is a question of national seurity: Wirtland is a threat to us.

If this virtual country allows "citizenship" to be kept private, operates on a purely voluntary/contractual basis, and provides useful services for their fees, sure, why not, I'm in.

Bitcoin is the ultimate freedom test. It tells you who is giving lip service and who genuinely believes in it.

ATTENTION BFL MINING NEWBS: Just got your Jalapenos in? Wondering how to get the most value for the least hassle? Give BitMinter a try! It's a smaller pool with a fair & low-fee payment method, lots of statistical feedback, and it's easier than EasyMiner! (Yes, we want your hashing power, but seriously, it IS the easiest pool to use! Sign up in seconds to try it!)

I. On board for this initative, it must be done for the greater good. Virus primed, Trojans on stand-by, may our ISPs forgive us...

I then use the money to buy BitCoins. You can too!

No! Let us not fight out of fear nor greed.  That is the way of defeat.  Let us stand our ground.  If Wirtland moves beyond threat to action, we shall defend our land with all the fury of Hell.  If Bitrustica becomes a tyrannical aggressor, she will die along with her soldiers.

So you (bitrusticans) claim some kind of right to govern bitcoin? And if you claim it ? How will you enforce it?

Bitrustica should be funded by the people for the people.
Bitrusticans rights / duties have not yet been defined. in fact bitrustica is just a wacky idea this point.
The basic idea of bitrustica would be to give everyone in the community a change to vote on bitcoin related issues.
ex.
 It could be in a few years their will be many different bitcoin clients. So who's to say what is the official client? bitrusticans could vote on this kind of thing.
 In time it might be necessary to elect a official representative of bitrustica. right now people might thing B Wagner is the bitcoin community's representative (is that what we want?)

Maybe having a real sovereign country, backing bitcoin could have legal and/or social benefits that we can't see yet?

Decentralization puts the trust in Bitrustica.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

I'm guessing your talking about this -> http://wiki.solidcoin.info/wiki/SolidCoin_Foundation

So bitcoin is lagging behind on this issue?

Would this kind of foundation be desirable for bitcoin users?

Sigh... I suppose a guy who calls himself king of an imaginary country is a better representative than a pedophile with a history of mortgage fraud...

This is probably how the Distributed Republics and Phyles in the Neal Stephenson universe got their start.  This is a great idea and I would love to see something like CryptNet become a reality  Cool
