I wish there was a small town somewhere that bitcoiners would just take over and make our own. I have lots of fantasies about this, but I’m pretty sure it ends up being a disaster…

Supposedly this is the purpose of private property. To be a check and balance against municipal corporate corruption. We have this already. Why not build upon it? Why do we have this innate desire to cluster? Why does it have to be a town or city?
Because people are social beinga and need community.
I must disagree. I am an anti-social being and need immunity from the community. Solitude is more valuable than never being able to repel the mind virus of Society. I think that people desire community on their terms, but they do NOT "need" it... This is sociological degree bullcrap conditioning...
Ok, you can do you but most people def need community.
There is a famous saying "it takes an entire village to raise a child" and there is a reason for this. There are planty psychological and sociological researches done on this topic as well as analyzing feom Dr Gabor Mate. Numbers speak for themselves.
I'm on my way.
What do we need to make this work.
1. Libertarian hippie mindset but with guns.
2. Would work hard to earn or not have to spend sats.
3. Everyone is rich AF but no one from outside could tell because everyone is living humble and modest homestead lifestyles.
If everyone just wants to build a mansion then you are looking at a security estate where power/control and services get centralized through a body corporate.
That already exists in fiat world. Homestead communities also exist in fiat world but I think bitcoin changes the incentive structures enough to make for a novel outcome.
The more people get involved the more formalised your constitution needs to be.
So a community cap could be needed.
Are you raising an alarm about the potential fate of Nostr ville?
Bitcoin is for everyone, not just for early adopter bitcoiners.
Let’s try anyway!
Kind of happening in the jungle
Madeira is getting there... 👀
it probably would. Better for us if we do not sit all in the same spot. Less cruse missile risk that way
Got a nice small town where I'm at
But we're landlocked & I don't like that
I like my small town, I just want a bunch of cool bitcoiners around me rather than a strange mix or rednecks and costal libs
Same +100💪
Wyoming has a ton. Most are just too cozy to put in proof of work to live where freedom is rampant
Burick’s Galt’s Gulch comes to mind.
Maybe New Hampshire?
But in any case, the real Citadel is the one you carry around in your mind.
I dream about this. All the time.
I've been following the Free State Project in New Hampshire from its inception. Your instinct is correct...
