why not?
if we become self sufficient we could still pay our workers in bitcoin and they would purchase stuff in bitcoin
we could still grow weed in greenhouses
besides we should start a project of terraformation on Mars, slowly but once it would be filled with oxygen
But what exactly would they buy with the bitcoins they earn? It's not that easy to trade with the earth. And those that don't earn enough, will they starve, with no other option to just leave and find something better?if we become self sufficient we could still pay our workers in bitcoin and they would purchase stuff in bitcoin

And if they don't wanna work anymore, what happens then? Will we just kick them outside the base and let them die?
It also takes a very long time to terraform a planet. Extremely long time. It's also extremely expensive.
This whole project would cost very many billion dollars. And that is money that very few countries and companies can pay, and I'd guess they are not that interested in building a bitcoin paradise (with that delay) and keep it funded when the public has lost interest.
Sad to see the discussion drifting away to the dream zone.
The Bir Tawil nation is theoretically possible. If the Egypt and Sudan reaches an understanding about selling the disputed property, then it can be purchased by bitcoiners.
On the other hand, Antarctica should remain outside human interference according to the international treaties. There is no way on earth that the UN is allowing someone to settle there.
Yeah, but it's very unlikely that they would reach that agreement with todays situation. Also, then we'd have problems with water and food. And to keep the miners cold would be a problem.The Bir Tawil nation is theoretically possible.

I however, would also prefer to see Antarctica untouched.
UN would probably not accept it, but since military is illegal on Antarctica it would be very interesting to see what they would do!
same as on earth, you don't work you don't get any money, simple as that
we would use bitcoins for food,water,other resources we would produce..
and yeah, I'm aware we crossed to the SF part, but it's interesting to see how it is actually possible altough very hard

Carbon dioxide sublimation
There is presently enough carbon dioxide (CO2) as ice in the Martian south pole and absorbed by regolith (soil) on Mars that, if sublimated to gas by a climate warming of only a few degrees, would increase the atmospheric pressure to 30 kilopascals (0.30 atm), comparable to the altitude of the peak of Mount Everest, where the atmospheric pressure is 33.7 kilopascals (0.333 atm). Although this would not be breathable by humans, it is above the Armstrong limit and would eliminate the present need for pressure suits. Phytoplankton can also convert dissolved CO2 into oxygen, which is important because Mars's low temperature will, by Henry's law, lead to a high ratio of dissolved CO2 to atmospheric CO2 in the flooded[clarification needed] northern basin.

just warming the planet up a few degrees would make it's pressure same as Mt.Everest making us lose the space suits and walking around with only oxygen bags, something like scooba-diving without water
we already have plenty of carbon dioxide

we just need to create some oxygen or make the athmosphere more earthlike by increasing it's temperature
altough, after what we've done on Earth, warming up the planet shouldn't be a problem
