BitNation is revolutionary libertarianism, and a world-redefining concept. A platform based on blockchain, BitNation’s goal is to allow everyone to become a “citizen of the world”. This project is based solely around the concept of holacratic organization, with a vision in mind to develop themselves into a fully-functioning, decentralized autonomous organization, or DAO.

BitNation Pangea is not new to the scene. They started operation in July 2014, and currently have thousands upon thousands of members around the globe. There are brick and mortar Bitnation consulates and embassies dotting the earth. There are micronation presidents as advisors. There is already work completed on the BitNation blockchain. Let’s dig in on what they would like to accomplish, who they are, what their token sale consists of, and our thoughts on the future of BitNation.

What is the problem that needs solving?

Frustration is growing with national governments. Cabinets and Parliaments are more lobbied and have more palms greased than ever before. Decisions being made are not being done in the best interests of the people of their countries, yet the citizens are the ones who feel the ramification further down the feeding trough.

Border issues and disputes over where lines should be drawn have led to bloodbaths in the names of property. The creation and modification of natially-recognized documents is a slow and arduous process riddled with delays, setbacks, confusion and red tape.

Many solutions have arisen to deal with this, including:

The creation of micronations with completely separate governing bodies (the president of one of the most successful micronations in existence is an advisor to BitNation).

The growth of privacy focused political parties and organizations such as the Swedish Pirate Party (of which the leader is also a BitNation advisor).

All these projects and initiatives are wonderful in their own accord, but are facing struggles taking their message and concepts to worldwide audiences. Taking sovereignty to the masses on a global scale requires a massive undertaking, and maybe just a little sprinkle of blockchain technology to keep things organized and streamlined.

How can one organization solve these issues on their own? How can they best avoid becoming just another “government” instead of a beacon of sovereign ideals?

BitNation’s Solution: The Wonderful Holacratic World

“In BitNation’s world, sovereignty shifts decisively from the State to the Citizen.”

BitNation is defined as a holacratic organization, focused on becoming a DAO, or decentralized autonomous organization. Holacratic represents a lack of outdated management styles and structures and barriers to entry. Anyone anywhere can become a member of the BitNation platform, and has the capacity to create their own “holon” (or team of members).

But what is a holon? BitNation’s website defined holons as such:

“A holon is something simultaneously representing a part and a whole. Everyone can join and create their own holons, or operational centers, or be a part of multiple holons. This allows BitNation to retain fluidity, be autonomous, and not be limited or controlled by centralized hierarchies.”

This decentralized solution allows for consensus on decisions, no governing leader, and no borders whatsoever, truly creating a global, group-centric organization of beings. They have been referred to as techno libertarians in some circles, which is a fitting designation for their overall solution.

But what is BitNation’s structure for organizational accomplishment?

BitNation focuses on four levels or parties in their Pangea ecosystem: World Citizen, Ally, Embassy/Consulate, and Ambassador. Their interactions with the BitNation platform are:

World Citizen : World Citizen status is open and available to anyone interested in joining the BitNation Pangea ecosystem. This status allows users to participate in the decentralized autonomous organization.

Ally : Allies are considered BitNation partners. Allies have access to communities, chat rooms, teams, and news rooms for the DAO. Allies have the capacity to post updates to large-scale BitNation social media profiles on Twitter and Facebook. This level of the ecosystem is reserved for those with plans to disrupt how the world works.

Embassy/Consulate : As mentioned initially, BitNation members have created physical locations as consulates and embassies. These can range from coffee-shops and people’s sheds on their property, all the way to a castle in Germany. Embassy spaces allow users to co-habitate to live and work. Consulates act more as co-working spaces, allowing work or meeting organization.

Ambassador: Ambassadors represent trained people involved in the decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) of BitNation. They are separated into three segments:

— Diplomatic Ambassadors

— Diplomatic Consuls

— Goodwill Ambassadors

Every citizen of BitNation, at all levels of the ecosystem, can select where they would like to access Pangea services, and who they would like to do business with, based on artificial intelligence generated performance criteria. Citizens can also use Ethereum-centric smart contracts to make agreements, resolve disputes, and more without the costs, inefficiencies, legislation and coercion rampant in old, outdates territory-based jurisdiction.

This complicated structure has the capacity to change civilization on a global scale. But such innovation needs a large, experienced, and well-structured team of operations personnel, communications experts, technological masterminds, and skilled advisory professionals. Does BitNation’s team have all boxes checked?
