We need a network of citadels with a web of trust access right management.

Totally agree
Can lead the East Australia charge on this

Nostr WoT for economic coordination and inter-citadel cooperation.
Inspired by the guys from the cypherpunk bitstream podcast, here’s how I would build a geographically distributed network of citadels:
1- buy land across different states.
2- sell shipping containers as homes for Bitcoiners: mobile (credible unilateral exit), cheap to buy (a 20 ft move-in-ready container costs ~$40-50k), standardized air/land/sea transport, durable (can last a lifetime), low maintenance, quick build out time (~1 month), and fungible (shell games that diffuse internal tensions and prevent observation/attribution).
3- limit each citadel to 50-150 ride or die Bitcoiners.
To scale: future residents exchange bitcoin (roughly equal to the purchase price of their shipping container) for shipping container/title as well as c-corp shares and llc interests. C corp holds this bitcoin in its treasury. In exchange for bitcoin levered equity in c corp shares, an investor bankrolls land acquisitions. The c corp transfers the title to land to the llc within c corp.
Shipping containers have drawbacks as living structures

Also the climate of your area is valuable to consider
What are the drawbacks?
1. Living in a metal box during geomagnetic reversal is a death sentence.
2. Asking people to part with the greatest asset we've ever known to live in a shipping container...🤣🤣🤣
Do the same thing that nostr:nprofile1qqs227t2658rfs74vfl8sqlar9d7hqfl4guxnu73waxddw0lr89f5hcpr3mhxue69uhkvet9v3ejumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtmpw4jxjmcpr9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummsv4hx7unyv4uzummjvuq3yamnwvaz7tmsw4e8qmr9wpskwtn9wvak49y3 lays out, but build wofati's. DYOR.
Does 1 hold even if you make it a faraday cage?
And regarding 2, the shipping container is likely going to be one of the cheapest option so you can keep a majority of the stack.
Faraday cage? HA! Tell me you haven't researched GR without telling me you haven't researched GR. The Carrington Event in 1859 is a good place to start. Wood is your friend.
It's not about being cheap. It's about multi generational construction. Architecture that stands the test of time. That's why we admire the buildings that we do today. Because of the obvious PoW required. Wofatis are PoW sculpted in alignment with nature. Our souls will demand such beautifully crafted GR-resistant dwellings. The long term cost savings of intentional design will be the real stack saver.
It depends. If it's free, no climate ctrl needed, and plan to move often, sure. Otherwise, there's better options for the $$
Tiny home on wheels, cargo trailer conversions, etc
As someone who works directly with shipping containers, I can tell you the last thing I want to do is live in one. Especially a 20 footer. Aside from it being only slightly larger than a prison cell, many containers that end up being sold for homes are first used for hazardous materials. Again, 20s especially.
The empty yard next to us sells 20s for $3-5k so the $40-50k build out prospect seems high to me.
Maintaining its mobility creates structural/foundational limitations that will negatively impact the home. These things are way easier to tip over than you think.
If mobility is a priority than having a home you can easily leave behind along with a fast and reliable form of transportation is a better route.
