As far as operating from Anguilla -- it would require renouncing my US citizenship, yes.
Hoo, boy... Make sure you get (buy?) citizenship somewhere else first, okay, Sameer? :-). Seriously, it would be indeed a drag to have a whole bunch of cypherpunks-without-a-country out there, no matter what we all say about the evils of nation-states... Anyone out there have suggestions about a domicile of choice? Vince's old "perputual tourist" thing comes to mind, but I'm not conviced that's really practical. I heard someone talking about Belize at FC97. The Seychelles have come up around here, more than once, for those with $10million to throw around... However, I tend to agree with Tim about this whole regulatory arbitrage stuff. Nothing keeps the law honest like good software. :-).
