Could Bitnation be The Future Most Wanted Government?

in #blockchain6 years ago

It is hard to imagine living in a world where you don't have to run from one office to another, always signing papers when starting a business when working out a conflict or even when getting married. It may sound hard to believe, but Bitnation can remove bureaucracy from our lives and instead, we can receive and offer jurisdiction services through an app. Bitnation is a project based in Switzerland and founded in 2014, designed to provide services that are typically provided by governments. The company describes itself as a “holocratic organization” that aims to become a decentralized society without being linked to the current organized government structures.

Susanne Tarkowski Tempelhof, CEO of the company, states that virtual space rather than physical borders would better-defined jurisdictions. Therefore, her team had an ambitious plan to create a geographically neutral alternative to each institution and stored it on a bitcoin blockchain database. Moreover, the team behind Bitnation believes that each person has different perceptions and preferences on governance services: “I personally think it’s global apartheid that people are restricted of their lifestyle choices or freedom of movement just because of where they were arbitrarily born, because of a piece of paper, a passport that gives them permission or not to move somewhere,” said Tempelhof, CEO, and founder of Bitnation.

Bitnation’s software, Pangea, called “the internet of sovereignty” was developed to enable each person from the world to choose a nation they prefer, a few nations, and none at all or even create their own on the platform. In addition, the app enables citizens to resolve debates between two parties more efficiently. Users of Pangea can build communities, organizations or markets where legal and jurisdictional services are given. This new concept could help all citizens from around the world to acquire easier access to jurisdiction services. For instance, these services could include:

  • legal blockchain marriage
  • a public notary
  • birth certificate issuance
  • blockchain ID
  • citizenship
  • health insurance
  • pensions, etc.

Pangea Arbitration Token

The Bitnation platform will use Ethereum ERC20 tokens, issuing its own cryptocurrency – PAT tokens. Thanks to a unique system, called "Lucy AI," participants will be able to create smart contracts with the help of this autonomous agent that will automatically distribute reputation tokens, following to be converted in PAT tokens. The total supply of PAT is 42 billion tokens. 34% of this total will be distributed during the ICO stages that will take place on the 25th of March, and is expected to finish on the 25th of April.
In conclusion, Bitnation does not only intend to improve governments strategies or systems, but they want to replace them entirely in the future, with the help of their service platform on blockchain technology. The ultimate goal is to become the only platform in the world free from any state or nation jurisdiction influence.

Love the concept. At present government departments, regardless of country are incredibly in-efficient and unreliable.

I really believe Blockchain can solve a lot of government-related problems.
