Free Private Cities website: https://www.freeprivatecities.com/ Original whitepaper text, written by Titus Gebel: https://www.freeprivatecities.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Whitepaper-Free-Private-Cities.pdf "What is a Free Private City? Imagine a private company offers you the basic services of a state, the protection of life, liberty and property, in a defined territory within a host nation. You pay a certain amount for those services per year. Your respective rights and obligations are laid down in a written agreement between you and the provider. Apart from that, you are free to do as you choose. Thus, you are a contracting party on an equal footing with a secured legal position, instead of being subject to the ever changing whims of politics. And what is more, you only become a part of it if you accept the offer." Buy bitcoin (Europe): https://bitcoinreserve.com/ Buy bitcoin (US): https://river.com/?a=OIAM3EWF
