About ten years ago, billionaire Peter Thiel founded a non-profit organization, which was called “Seasteading Institute”. In addition, he financed the project of the first floating city. In may 2018, the Institute has started implementation of the project with the government of French Polynesia. Today we can look at amazing city of the future, which may appear in 2022.
On the floating island plans to build 300 houses. The residents of the city will have its own management and its own cryptocurrency, called “Varyon”.
These are not mere dreams. Last Thursday started pre-sale Varyon. They will last until 14 July. Start date public sale is not yet known.
The floating city will be located at a distance of about a kilometer from the shore. People will be able to move with the help of the ferry. The city will be filled with plants, and the house is equipped with wind turbines and solar panels. This will ensure the full autonomy of the city. In addition, fruit, vegetables and seafood will be grown right on the island.
Subsequently, the city needs to turn into several floating Islands, connected to each other. It will take 60 million dollars, of which the authors of the idea expect to attract with ICO.
This floating island seems the perfect place to live. It will only use renewable energy sources. He will be in government, but its residents will use their own currency. At the same time, the city will not be afraid of sea level rise. The city will rise with it.
It’s possible, before we conquer Mars, we will populate the ocean.
