Can cryptocurrencies be a reliable medium of exchange? Bitcoin (BTC) is now legal tender in a couple of countries, but any major progress has yet to be made. While most countries are hesitant in adopting cryptos as legal tender, one project has a unique plan.

The plan is to “buy” an island, with tokenomics as the bedrock. Though this might appeal a few, proper due diligence is very necessary. Let’s know more.

What is Crypto Island?

A relatively new project in the cryptoverse, Crypto Island claims something very unique. It talks about purchasing an island in the Bahamas and using digital assets to run operations. Crypto Island is inviting enthusiasts to crowdfund the project. This, it states, gives co-ownership of the island to backers.

A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is said to have been set up for the purpose. The project claims that besides providing co-ownership to participants, decision-making rights will also be shared. The island, it is said, would be constructed in an eco-friendly way.

A section on the official website of Crypto Island talks about the project undergoing “re-branding”. It is not clear what this means.
