Summary
We are very fascinated by the amazing anti-state, voluntaryist and
non-profit organization Paralelni polis.
In this article, we go more in-depth with Prague's Paralelni Polis
co-founder, the libertarian Perpetual traveler Pavol Luptak.
Pavol is the CEO of multiple companies, true voluntaryist and cryptocurrency advocate.
We are very happy to have spoken to him regarding Paralelni Polis.
What is Paralelni Polis?
Paralelni polis is a hackerspace meeting the art world.
Paralelni polis meaning parallel society.
It is a social idea to create a society separate from and not dependent of the state.
The idea of Paralelni Polis was created together with Charter 77.
Charter 77 was a very controversial document signed by 242 intellectuals, which was a statement
against the communist regime in Czechoslovakia with the goal to reclaim the human rights taken from the people.
The current communist government tried to stop this by arresting and threatening the signing people
with violence, loss of job and fear.
This resulting in a spark of hope which led to the velvet revolution taking place in 1989 which took down the communist government.
One of the key players behind charter 77 was Vaclav Havel, Which later became the president
after the revolution.
When you walk into Paralelni Polis you are leaving your current the state
you currently where in and entering
this amazing free space, where cryptocurrency and free society ideas flourish.
The Czech slogan for Paralelni Polis actually is “Vedje ven” meaning
“enter outside”. The state printed monopoly money that you have in your wallet is no longer accepted as a value of exchange.
Here you pay with Bitcoin(also supporting Monero, litecoin and bitcoin lightning).
Paralelni Polis is one of the few places on earth that is completely running 100% on
crypto currency only as it's value of exchange.
