Ep. 43: Bootstrap City Rising - Ciudad Morazán, Providing Human Dignity Amidst Poverty and Honduras' Path to Massive Decentralization of State Power w/ Massimo Mazzone +4 More Guests

This is the recording of a webinar about Ciudad Morazán, the charter city in Choloma, Honduras - not to be confused with Prospera, another Honduran charter city.

Recorded on-site, this episode is a deep dive into one of the most interesting developments in city governance in modern history.

Located in one of the most dangerous regions in the world when it comes to crime, Morazán provides a beacon of stability, safety, and affordable housing.

It also runs its internal economy 100% on crypto, having developed its stablecoin (eLPS), based on the Honduran currency - the lempira.

Founded by the Italian industrialist Massimo Mazzone, Ciudad Morazán is located in a Honduran ZEDE, a free zone with the highest degree of legal autonomy in the world.

So Mazzone: "I want to show that liberty has the most impact on poor people."

We couple this deep dive into Morazán with a background in free cities and the Honduran ZEDE legal system that allows this governance innovation.
