Cryptoland - A physical crypto island where its community can surround themselves with other like-minded individuals.

[The Mass Shooter Ron Soye]

You're forgetting the the networking infrastructure(cable or fiber lines) they'd need before they could even get to their gay money laundering and that takes up space too. On top of that on call techs from their ISP will need to live on the island in the very likely even a line degrades or worse a node gets damaged.

Starlink to the Moon, brother!

God, I hope this is actually is real so the retarded shitcoiners that invested in the little st james of the east go bankrupt when this horrible idea inevitably goes south.

The guy who is masterminding the project storyboarded the whole video, which is cringey because it’s terrible animation that only a rich person could afford to produce. The voice sync animation is a total mess and some of the voice acting is recorded in terrible quality. Like, he’s already scamming himself by involving all these designers and animators that he had to pay. Clearly he thinks he can scam more people to make it all back, and who knows, maybe he can. It’s a terrible idea but nobody is interested in stopping him. Money can’t fix stupid.

Line of sight Telecom is getting better, and you could have satellite beam down to a local receiver station, but maybe not idea for people who are into crypto ...

If they can't connect to the block chain cause of a hiccup, how do their transactions happen?

 

[irishAzoth]

wasn't this obvious satire to get attention to some NFTs??

 

[jason analberg]

I really hope that this comes to fruition. The only way I see this ending is in massive lols, the worst this can possibly end is if somebody hires mercenaries to take the island over, or if a natural disaster rolls through, and flattens the place.

Yeah, but satellite is usually pretty slow(600+ms) and it's reliability comes and goes with the seasons. I didn't bring it up because I honestly expect these retards to wanna bury a fiber line in that island.

When Chris Chan first started appearing online, lots of people thought “This is clearly satire, NOBODY could be this dense. It’s just got to be self aware, no one could handle the embarrassment this is going to cause.” I liken this project to that phenomenon. I actually think the project, while stupid and impossible, is legitimate in the sense that the person in charge is not smart enough to realize how bad of an idea it is.

Is Matt Furie seething on twitter yet? I know they didn't licence that pepe image.

Someone needs to ask Chris when the Sonichu NFTs are coming out.

I am struggling to understand why at 4:20 in the video he gets served a bowl of olives ominously labelled as rat poison.

Only thing I can think of is that they're sour grapes because Warren Buffet and others called crypto rat poison in the past.

The promo video is amazing for all the wrong reasons.

I don't think anyone mentioned it yet, but they're planning on raising funds by selling these amazing NFTs.

Right-click em while they're hot!

I don't think they could have chosen a less appealing mascot to attempt to sell. Even the lazy monkey nfts look better than this.

Fiji is prone to tropical cyclones. Not just big ones that wreck stuff, but many smalller ones as well. These are the ones with monsoonal rain that'll cause rain fade issues for all but the biggest satellite dishes.

Ofc they could always tap into one of the undersea fiber optic lines connecting the USA and Australia; maybe even one that already taps into Fiji. I suspect the Fijians would want these lines upgraded before letting Cryptoland patches in... and that assumes it's even possible to buy more capacity.

Edit: Looks like there's only one cable going into Fiji atm (on a main cable between the USA and Australia), with a couple more under construction; one connecting to Australia and the other connecting to the USA. Either way, the traffic generated by a cryptofag utopia would easily overwhelm the internet infrastructure of a typical Pacific island nation.

Ofc they could always tap into one of the many undersea fiber optic lines connecting the USA and Asia, but running a few hundred miles of fibre along the sea bed won't be cheap.

It won't be quick either and I doubt these retards will wanna wait or will have the finances for it at that point. Rain fade isn't that big of an issue if your alignment is good though and your transmitter strong enough even with midsized dishes. The two biggest issues for dishes in fiji are gonna be the winds because that'll fuck up the alignment and humidity because that'll make the fiber glass grow mold and a part that basically has a tendency to retain water.

Why do you think blockchain activity is particularly bandwidth-intensive?

It's not so much that. It's more a case of Pacific island nations having notoriously poor internet connectivity and limited bandwidth to begin with.

There's also the tiny issue of redundancy. Good luck trying to get onto a blockchain without a reliable internet connection.

That being said, a far more pressing issue for the island in terms of blockchain activities - specifically mining - would be power generation, but this has already been covered off ITT (i.e. it's either hopeless or hopelessly expensive).

They aren't taking kindly to the twitter thread.

As for the stuff mentioned about the logistics, if you're interested in seeing their plans I've attached PDFs of their plans.

What was the C&D for? Someone just saying they're a scam or was this someone who did like a report or article?
