Fame at last! And it just goes to show, you cast your bread upon the 
waters, and you never know what's going to come back to you.


Well done Rob, and well spotted Alan.

[NetBehaviour] NYT: Making a Crypto Utopia in Puerto Rico

[Cornelia Sollfrank]

by Nellie Bowles 

SAN JUAN, P.R. — They call what they are building Puertopia. But then someone 
told them, apparently in all seriousness, that it translates to “eternal boy 
playground” in Latin. So they are changing the name: They will call it Sol.

Dozens of entrepreneurs, made newly wealthy by blockchain and cryptocurrencies, 
are heading en masse to Puerto Rico this winter. They are selling their homes 
and cars in California and establishing residency on the Caribbean island in 
hopes of avoiding what they see as onerous state and federal taxes on their 
growing fortunes, some of which now reach into the billions of dollars.

And these men — because they are almost exclusively men — have a plan for what 
to do with the wealth: They want to build a crypto utopia, a new city where the 
money is virtual and the contracts are all public, to show the rest of the 
world what a crypto future could look like. Blockchain, a digital ledger that 
forms the basis of virtual currencies, has the potential to reinvent society — 
and the Puertopians want to prove it.

For more than a year, the entrepreneurs had been searching for the best 
location. After Hurricane Maria decimated Puerto Rico’s infrastructure in 
September and the price of cryptocurrencies began to soar, they saw an 
opportunity and felt a sense of urgency.

So this crypto community flocked here to create its paradise. Now the investors 
are spending their days hunting for property where they could have their own 
airports and docks. They are taking over hotels and a museum in the capital’s 
historic section, called Old San Juan. They say they are close to getting the 
local government to allow them to have the first cryptocurrency bank.

“What’s happened here is a perfect storm,” said Halsey Minor, the founder of 
the news site CNET, who is moving his new blockchain company — called Videocoin 
— from the Cayman Islands to Puerto Rico this winter. Referring to Hurricane 
Maria and the investment interest that has followed, he added, “While it was 
really bad for the people of Puerto Rico, in the long term it’s a godsend if 
people look past that.”

Puerto Rico offers an unparalleled tax incentive: no federal personal income 
taxes, no capital gains tax and favorable business taxes — all without having 
to renounce your American citizenship. For now, the local government seems 
receptive toward the crypto utopians; the governor will speak at their 
blockchain summit conference, called Puerto Crypto, in March.

The territory’s go-to blockchain tax lawyer is Giovanni Mendez, 30. He expected 
the tax expatriates to disappear after Hurricane Maria, but the population has 
instead boomed.

“It’s increased monumentally,” said Mr. Mendez, who has about two dozen crypto 
clients. “And they all came together.”

property where they could have their own airports and docks, and taking over

The movement is alarming an earlier generation of Puerto Rico tax expats like 
the hedge fund manager Robb Rill, who runs a social group for those taking 
advantage of the tax incentives.

“They call me up saying they’re going to buy 250,000 acres so they can 
incorporate their own city, literally start a city in Puerto Rico to have their 
own crypto world,” said Mr. Rill, who moved to the island in 2013. “I can’t 
engage in that.”

The newcomers are still debating the exact shape that Puertopia should take. 
Some think they need to make a city; others think it’s enough to move into Old 
San Juan. Puertopians said, however, that they hoped to move very fast.

“You’ve never seen an industry catalyze a place like you’re going to see here,” 
Mr. Minor said.

The Monastery

Until the Puertopians find land, they have descended on the Monastery, a 
20,000-square-foot hotel they rented as their base and that was largely 
unscathed by the hurricane.

Matt Clemenson and Stephen Morris were drinking beer on the Monastery’s roof 
one recent evening. Mr. Clemenson had an easygoing affect and wore two-tone 
aviators; Mr. Morris, a loquacious British man, was in cargo shorts and lace-up 
steel-toed combat boots, with a smartphone on a necklace. They wanted to make 
two things clear: They chose Puerto Rico because of the hurricane, and they 
come in peace.

“It’s only when everything’s been swept away that you can make a case for 
rebuilding from the ground up,” Mr. Morris, 53, said.

“We’re benevolent capitalists, building a benevolent economy,” said Mr. 
Clemenson, 34, a co-founder of Lottery.com, which is using the blockchain in 
lotteries. “Puerto Rico has been this hidden gem, this enchanted island that’s 
been consistently overlooked and mistreated. Maybe 500 years later we can make 
it right.”

Other Puertopians arrived on the roof as a pack, just back from a full-day 
property-hunting
