I've read the entire thread but I still wonder why one would want to build such thing as a bitcoin island?
What would be the purpose of it? Have I missed something major?
1.massive media coverage
2.no taxes, legal weed, aka. utopia
3.official currency bitcoins
4.tourists will be forced to buy bitcoins to purchase stuff on our island increasing the price significantly
and that's just out of the top of my head

have you ever wanted not to pay taxes?
