Global Blockchain Show, liberland

The President of Liberland, Vit Jedlička, during his presentation at the Global Blockchain Show, stated that “blockchain” will be the “modern way of state building and control.” 

He also depicted Liberland as a “heart-shaped territory” that is located between Croatia and Serbia, and claimed that the micronation has defined borders, a government that is functioning and a digital-first population that is growing.

A Digital State Built on Blockchain

According to Jedlička, the governance system in Liberland is completely based on blockchain. He stated that the aim is to get rid of bureaucracy and to enable the citizens to interact with the government services in a more transparent way. 

He also pointed out that more than 800,000 people have shown interest in getting citizenship or e-residency despite the fact that only about 1,300 are officially recognized as citizens.
