The Free Republic of Liberland is a self-proclaimed micronation founded in April 13, 2015. The proclamation of the state’s independence was initiated by the Czech libertarian political activist, Vít Jedlička.

Located between Croatia and Serbia on the western bank of the Danube river, the tiny nation has brought about many discussions concerning micronations and secessions. Jedlička and Liberland’s citizens are strong proponents of free markets, and the use of the decentralized cryptocurrency Bitcoin are included among many other non-traditional beliefs.

“Bitcoin.com is supportive of Liberland both philosophically and financially,” and hopes the movement continues to be successful, Bitcoin angel investor, Roger Ver, said.

The Free Republic of Liberland Continues to Progress

Bitcoin.com (BC): Can you tell our readers about Liberland and how it’s going there?

Vít Jedlička (VJ): It is doing great! There is permanent settlement group working on preparing everything on moving in. They control territory now. Very soon you will be able to see beautiful drone pictures. We have now seventy-five representative offices around the world. I’m just flying back from Malta where we will have a very strong presence. Our legal system is close to completion, and I am proud it will be most libertarian one on this planet. We appreciate today’s approach of Croatia which strictly protects our borders we hope to develop a very friendly relationship with the new government that will be formed in September. We are extremely grateful for the support that Bitcoin.com and Roger Ver gave to Liberland. We hope that many more important supporters will have the courage to step out and will help Liberland to move forward.
