every single law would be in a civil contract format, no law shall be forced on anyone, based on the anarchist voluntarist principles.

Its just that easy

I admire your optimism Bitcoinfreak, but I think you have a lot of misplaced faith in the lazy and economically unviable masses.

And I think that you severely underestimate the potential in the human race

Sorry BitcoinFreak12 your world fails for the same reason that communism fails (an utter misunderstanding of human nature.

The communists had a beautiful dream too. If only the workers of the world unite and throw off their chains and we will all have such an abundance of goods. Development with be unfettered with productive forces so great everyon's needs will be met. From each according to his abilities to each according to his needs. A perfect world.  Roll Eyes

Starry eyed blind faith in the wonders of human benevolence and potential will lead you right where it took the communists... megadeath and Stalin.

That's why money and state must be separate. Before blockchain came along this was achieved with banks, but that quickly converged to centralization. PoW secured blockchain allows competiton for control over money in a neutral way judged by an algorithm. Maybe land ownership will also be tracked via blockchain in the future, thus reducing the need for goverment even further. Though enforcing the land ownership according to blockchain might still require some physical security operation, which should be transparent and self-sustainable (read: taxes) so that it doesn't turn rogue.
