If i have money about USD 1.000.000.000.000. i want to build an island in the international sea far away from any EEZ of any country and declare it as a sovereigh country and make it a new absolute monarchy where i am be the king of the kingdom....and of course using bitcoin as a national currency...

If you ever collect this money and decide to move on with this plan, I can recommend you Liberland, free territory between Serbia and Croatia, unclaimed by both countries.
You may offer this money to the authorities, buy this land and build your kingdom.
After that, you can rule as king there and choose your policy, national currency, whatever you want...
If you offer good salaries to your employers, I may move to your country Smiley

You know what would be absolutely epic? A virtual game for this that modeled situations well. I would spend hours on that, but unfortunately all of the games that try to depict this kind of situation is much too unrealistic.

But anyways, Bitcoin is an online currency. I'd think that actual, physical currency would be a lot better for your little island.

My advice is to place your kingdom deep inside a continent, else, with the sea level rising, you may lose it.
Now let's find a country that would sell you land for this project....

In a properly corrupt African banana republic, he can buy land and could even buy people for his new country... so he should go to Ukraine Cheesy.

LOL.

If he did it in Africa then he would have another war with just about any tribe or religious groups there.
Its like monkeys some of them.

"New people?? O_O"

You will need to be able to trade with other countries to be able to survive since you will have a hard time getting people to live there..

I think it's likely that you have to trade with other countries, yes, especially in the early stage of your Island (in which you have to invest a lot of money for the Island itself, but also the infrastructure and other facilities; like a way to get fresh water).  If you have a solid base, I actually think that are some people willing to live their whole self-sufficient. I think everywhere in the world you can find those people, you just need to attract them to your Island.

- -

I don't think I would use BTC as the currency over there. If you would really need a currency in such place, you should create a currency that you can fully control on your own. However, in such "Utopia Island", i'm not sure whether you need a currency.

No, you would depend on eachother to survive.
So digital currency would not be te best idea for this.

Unless its called Coconuts..

"Ill pay you 2 coconuts for that goat"
And then you go get 2 coconuts from a supply shop that accepts the currency and gives coconuts for it...

LOL

I think it's likely that you have to depend on eachother to survive indeed, especially on such "isolated" islands. But, even then, I don't think there is a need for currency over there. Indeed, you can trade your goat for Coconuts (if that is what you want), but I don't think that is neccesary in the case that I expect people on such Utopian islands working together to survive. I expect them to have a mentality of "all for all"; work together to survive; and egoism is not appreciated.

It should be like that ofc.
But I think that there will always be that one capitalist that wants more than everyone else.
And that is the kind of behavior that can ruin such a perfect place.

I think I saw some other guy that accually got an island but I think it died down and he just dropped it.
The idea of this would not work.. Since you ill be making a new nation then you would need land to make money off or somekind of income so you can get infrastructure.

You will need to be able to trade with other countries to be able to survive since you will have a hard time getting people to live there..

I heard about building your own nation/micro nations a while ago you could do something like that but your goal might be to high.

Seems to be a popular idea these days, i would like to join one Smiley

In standard English, the present personal pronoun, "I," is capitalized. Do you write it in lower case because you know the significance of caps and lower case? (I'm not going to ask if you were too lazy to hit the "shift" key on your computer keyboard.)

Being a king isn't all that much fun. A king has the duty to care for his subjects. In fact, it is his duty to be nice to them, because if he doesn't, they might rebel and destroy him.

In America, Canada, and the U.K., every human who understands common law is the king of his "residence." He is the king of his castle.

Is this a real plan or just a joke? Because it probably will be a nice country with Bitcoin for national currency Grin

Not the first time threads like this show up. But would it really be a good choice to have bitcoin as the currency? Don't think it would remain an absolute monarchy for long. And that's a good thing. But for a small country would the free market that bitcoin brings really be good? Wouldn't that leave the island more vulnerable to capital flight that could stop the small economy? And woulnd't the inequality in the country mean there can't be a real free market? Inequality from the positions of power if the king is around or just money and access each person has.

Are those the only unclaimed territories left on earth.

There are a few unclaimed places left, but that's mainly because their neighbours can't or refuse to decide who actually owns it. If someone tried to sneak in and claim it they'd probably find they were last in line.

If your country is to rest anywhere within of the highlighted earth-centered region above, it is to rest within the imperium of Great Empire of Earth.

Are those the only unclaimed territories left on earth.

You seems like joke. International sea cant be bought. Recent news is about Liberland president is arrested by Croatia for trespassing in 'no man's land' .
