We, the $CITIZENs of KONG Land, find that trad -gov and -corp institutions have for too long undermined and corrupted our nascent digital societies with grave implications to physical society. We charge that said institutions have shown time and time again that they cannot resist creating a better panopticon as they wantonly:
In response to these transgressions, and, in recognition of the fundamental right every individual has to sound cryptography, we hereby declare the founding of KONG Land: a crypto state that believes that freedoms in digital society cannot be passively realized but must be actively fought for. We believe that the goal must be to bridge the digital world and the physical world — to create physical goods that are cryptographically secure down to the microchip. This mission will let us:
Our vision for the metaverse is not a 3D version of tradcorp web 2.0. It is a blending of the digital and physical in a way that empowers individuals and communities through sound cryptography.
We welcome anyone, anywhere in the world, under the yoke of oppressive computing to join us in realizing this vision. We will distribute cryptographic goods far and wide so that regardless of personal circumstances, any person may have access to tools which preserve the integrity of their fundamental rights of privacy, speech, and property. KONG Land shall effect the production and dissemination of these goods through:
As $CITIZENs we seek to work together to build and defend a verdant society that exists within both physical and digital domains. We appreciate that as $CITIZENs we must have empathy and humility to others and that the use of sound cryptography entails our values and should not be allowed to be subverted by those who believe secrets facilitate wrongdoing.
We realize KONG Land today on the Ethereum blockchain at kong.eth and impart this designated blockchain address the full governing force and capability of the crypto state, only to be amended by a majority of voting $CITIZENs.
The KONG Land Founding Charter is open for ratification as of January 31st, 2022. Ratify the Founding Charter at https://charter.kong.land/charter.
The Founding Charter is recorded on the permaweb at Arweave transaction 1HhgIhjmE724 and may be amended by a vote of $CITIZENs.
