Yes and No. YES because as a persona who loves some peace and calm far away from human noise and machines its a great idea. Also because I love playing with water, water sports.
No because safety is kind of not really guaranteed with the current unstable global climate change. And a seastead its a very expensive thng to build looking at the type of modern technology needed to have a satisfied one that meets the requirements as recommended by engineers.
Topic: Would you live on a seastead? (Read 535 times)
The idea of the seastead is very great or you can say that it is the most unique or most interesting idea i have ever heard, But i have some question that the standard of the living of the people is increasing day by day but already some people are living in the middle class but they do not have enough money to live like a place like this. But if the company is supported this idea by the people then that means the idea is great and people are willing to pay for this.
That would be amazing right.

I think this could have great potential. It reminds me of some of Jacques Fresco's ideas. I'm pretty sure he even talked about building cities on the water. Some people are concerned about there not being enough land for people to live on. I don't think that's actually a problem, but if it were, there is certainly plenty of water to live on. I love the idea of having a clean slate when it comes to government and law. In many countries, so many stupid laws have been created over the years that it is virtually impossible to clean them up. It would be great to start from scratch. I think that a community like this will attract some of the most progressive thinker on our planet, plus they automatically have to be rich to get in on this project in the early stages. I think it's something I would definitely try. Maybe it would even be so good I would stay there for good.
I've read about this before. I think that one of the main ideas is that you can basically start your own society independent of other governments' rules. I think they are just starting in conjunction with other countries because you need a base to start building from. I've read that one application of seasteading could be to have skilled programmer from India, for example, like off the coast of California. It could be easier than having them immigrate to the United States. They could just work from the water and people from the "mainland" could come and visit them as needed. They also probably wouldn't have to pay taxes, which sounds pretty nice. I think I would give it a shot.
Aw, you're just upset because you want all that ocean-going plastic for yourself when you get your floating island built.
There are tons of plastic on land. Maybe that could be burned for electricity before trying to get the nano-particles from the ocean.
Living on the sea is what I would have dreamed of. But this requires a lot of money, which I do not have. I think that these funds will appear in me in the crypto currency.
You could scour the oceans for all that discarded plastic that is floating around in them - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pacific_garbage_patch - burn it to boil water in a small steam engine onboard your vessel, use the engine to generate electricity for your crypto mining.

I personally couldn't , I dont like the idea of it , but i know others who would really be intrested in this and would be willing. I think it would take courage
But it is a very interesting idea the only thing that i would ask is how much would it cost for an individual to live in such place.
Blue Frontiers is looking at the initial homes to be around $200k per home on average.
Unlike land though, the hope is that the cost of manufacturing for these seasteads comes down making property cheaper with more innovation.
I think this is more convenient to criminals to serve as their hometown and by thus way their would be a lot of process implemented and they cannot esccape at high levels of security. I think it is not applicable to serve as a homeland. For vacation purposes rather it could be.
When will floating island nations be able to produce and manufacture all the goods we need to live?
Looking at the project the pilot project will likely need to still import food. Space will be a premium and building farmland vs oceanfront property for tourists will tend toward the profit made from tourists.
Not until the cost of the platforms is down very low will farming be more prevalent. But the company, Blue21, that is doing the design for the Floating Island Project is already working on floating farms.
Energy, water, etc. will be created on the platform.

It seems very nice and nice place, but I do not like to live in a wounded place that is not recognized by any country, because I prefer to live in the country and I think it's safer.
This is a very next concept but for the sake of tsunamis, I think that i am going to say a big no with them being so far away from others, what will happen in the case of an emergency. In a tsunami the safest place to be is floating on the water far away from shore. You probably wouldn't even notice.
It is a great thing to see this kind of innovation. But if I would offered to have it, I would probably say no. Yes, government somehow sucks but it is better to have it. I don't know but I think government makes everything just perfectly ordered. Another thing is it is not safe to have it because it is full of danger in sea than of the land. Another thing is that I am afraid of seas as I see it as an empty space. This is just my opinion. I would still choose to be here in what I used to be.
I guess that for the foreseeable future, we shall not consider a seastead as a permanent place to live. But it could be a good place for a summer vacation, or a second home. I sure could enjoy spending a few weeks a year there. More? I need to give it a try, first. So I'll hope they'll start with the building of a nice hotel.
A bit like the people from New York who all their life, go to Florida for their summer vacation, before moving there permanently when they retire.

I prefer to belong to any state. And do not be in free swimming. But everyone can choose the state and everyone can move there.
It would be fun living there. It is very beautiful. But I think it is safer in the country.

The idea of seasteading is always felt attractive and cheerful to me. But it is a matter of surprise that you can live there. What kind of work can be done for living. I'll be able to live there, and how can I sit on the floating island.
The hope is for it to be a great hub for blockchain incubation. The whole economy will be crypto based so anyone in this field will find a welcome environment for doing so.
As well as just about anything you would do in any city.
My idea is to open up an underwater bar that you have to SCUBA dive to.
