👀 Praxis is a Thiel-backed “network state” project that aims to build its own “nation”. In Nov, Praxis founder Dryden Brown wrote about wanting Greenland for Praxis. In Dec, Trump named Thiel partner Ken Howery as Denmark ambassador & said the US shld buy Greenland. Praxis & Dryden are thrilled…1/
2/ This is a reply to Dryden’s post (above). Note Dryden’s response.
3/ Peter Thiel backs Praxis through Pronomos Capitol.
4/ “Backers of Pronomos include Peter Thiel and Balaji Srinivasan…” (Balaji leads the network state movement & wrote a book titled, “The Network State: How to Start a New Country.”)
8/ Oh look. Sam Bankman Fried was an investor. “Peter Thiel-backed city-building startup Praxis has raised $15 million in Series A funding from a variety of crypto venture firms led by Paradigm Capital, Sam Bankman-Fried‘s Alameda Research and Three Arrows Capital.”
9/ Praxis is also backed by Pronomos VC where Andreessen is reportedly an investor.
11/ PayPal Mafia member Ken Howery [who Trump has named as ambassador to Denmark] remains one of four general partners at Founders Fund, the VC firm he launched with Peter Thiel & Luke Nosek following PayPal's acquisition in 2002.”
18/ Dryden Brown’s tweet was actually a thread. Here’s part of it: “I went to Greenland to try to buy it. *** First, some context. I’m building a crypto-native COUNTRY called @ praxisnation, w/ a network of people who’ve founded companies worth >$400B. We are scouting for physical territory to build our first city…” (Emphasis added.)
19/ “Mineral exploration company KoBold Metals, backed by billionaires including Jeff Bezos & Bill Gates, has signed an agreement w/ London-listed Bluejay Mining to search in Greenland for critical materials used in electric vehicles.” Other “KoBold investors include … Andreessen Horowitz…” 8/10/21
20/ “The billionaire-backed mining firm KoBold has entered a joint venture with Bluejay in Greenland to explore critical materials for electric vehicles.” 8/10/21
21/ 👀 The Tech Bros are apparently interested in Panama too, tho not necessarily for Praxis. (Article from 6/17/20) “Essentially, Pronomos is starting charter cities on vacant land parcels in a number of developing countries. Sources say Pronomos Capital is seeking out regions in Panama, Ghana, Nigeria, and the Marshall Islands. The project will allow international firms to set up shop in the semi-autonomous zones and the project is maintained much like a venture fund. So far, Pronomos has raised $9 million in venture capital and a large chunk of the investment stemmed from Peter Theil. Other investors include ’s Roger Ver, venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, and the entrepreneur Balaji Srinivasan. Pronomos Capital has a very impressive team of Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who have made names for themselves through various ventures.”

Wowza. Those of us who study the Theo Bros have long suspected a financial connection between them & the Tech Bros, but were unable to find it. @ForbesTech just did. The connection is thru Marc Andreessen who advises DOGE & New Founding (led by Nate Fischer & Josh Abbottoy). 1/ https://t.co/hkvsAwH0Dl
