This autumn, Satlantis is partnering with the nostr:nprofile1qqs0cfrsa5vksqwa4nju9093fffl5hhflq0wxedlf9v0jnrpzlv7ufcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ec8y6tdv9kzumn9wshsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvshsnhmv64 's Free Cities Conference, which takes place October 31 – November 2 in Prague. We’ll be thrilled to see you there.
As members of the Satlantis community, you care about the core principles of sovereignty, decentralisation and gatekeeper-free systems. Free Cities is a natural extension of that vision — sovereignty not just online, but in real life.
What are Free Cities?
Free Cities are self-governing jurisdictions where governance is intentionally streamlined and aligned with individual freedom and voluntary interaction.
These zones are designed to attract sovereign individuals and entrepreneurs by offering:
✅Transparent, fixed service fees in place of traditional taxation
✅A government role limited to protecting life, liberty, and property
✅Citizen contracts that clearly define rights and obligations — enforceable through independent arbitration
✅Private regulation via insurance-based accountability, rather than top-down bureaucracy
In essence, they offer a new kind of legal environment — one where people choose their governance and are treated as customers, not subjects. Such jurisdictions already exist — and thrive — in Honduras, and many more are under development across the world.
Why it matters to Satlantis
At Satlantis we are about sovereignty, independence and connection, wherever you travel. Free Cities are the real-world counterpart to the sovereign individual thesis. We are convinced that they will not only multiply in the coming years, but become very relevant and prosperous — a new form of governance.
And as such, Free Cities are becoming attractive options for the very people that make up the Satlantis community. Their development is a key emerging trend that we’ll be following very closely, and that we want our community to be a part of.
For anyone interested in location independence, legal optionality or international business, this conference offers a rare opportunity to engage with the leaders building these frameworks on the ground.

The rise of Special Economic Zones may be the most important global trend you haven't yet heard about.
Our new documentary, Zones of Progress, is released today and tells the fascinating story of these zones for the first time.
Special Economic Zones—parts of countries with their own rules and regulations—have been quietly growing in number over the past half-century. There are now more than 7,000 worldwide, and they are shaping the development of countries as diverse as China, the UAE, and Honduras.
