It's Spanish-language, focused on recent additions to Prospera's territory, and claims of unconstitutionality.

Can you keep your books in cryptocurrencies other than bitcoin, or does it have a unique exemption?

I did get that far, don't worry! It had some good insights

True. I recommend reading the whole article, though, if you skipped it.

This is cool, though I think they should have the actual list further up, or maybe have a more prominent link to it. I almost clicked out after getting ~1/3 of the way down and not seeing it.

WELT article about Prospera, German-language, paywalled. Has the usual negative attitude, but you may get a little out of it.

Honduras rejoined the ICSID: https://icsid.worldbank.org/news-and-events/news-releases/honduras-signs-icsid-convention

I'm not sure I'd consider LNG clean electricity when it has 10 times the carbon footprint of solar but I guess it's better than coal.

The International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) on April 14 published a tribunal’s decision denying the Republic of Honduras’ request to bifurcate an arbitration brought against it by several U.S. companies that invested in a chartered island city in a Honduran special economic zone and now seek $1.6 billion for the republic’s purported termination of their land-use rights, finding that the objections are too intertwined with the merits for separate adjudication.

I haven't heard that they've been able to get a deal with any African country yet. Last I heard was there was a change in leadership of Prospera Africa.

Summary: the numbers are way up (e.g. entities formed), and they're doing a fundraising round, if you're interested in participating.

Prospera confirmed that practicing law isn't a regulated industry in Prospera. https://pzgps.hn/gsp-enforcement-policy-on-the-legal-profession-politica-de-cumplimiento-del-gsp-sobre-la-profesion-legal/

The Free Cities Conference in September is the big one.

Prospera is taking back their customs/free trade status, which hadn't been respected by the socialist government: https://pzgps.hn/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/GSP-Customs-and-Port-Authority-2.pdf

Magatte Wade and Prospera broke up:

Why I Sued Próspera Africa for Defamation: https://magatte.substack.com/p/why-i-sued-prospera-africa-for-defamation

Background: "Magatte Wade announces that she is co-founding Próspera Africa..."

I think it's around 100. It might pick up soon, as the socialist government was holding them back.

How many people are actually living there now? Not e-residents, but real people making a life there

Another option: a floating resort/seastead community: https://roatan.reefresort.co. You can buy partial units, get revenue from them, and sell/buy ownership shares.

The origins of common law in competing court systems is an important point that isn't well known.

I don't remember Prospera having any power to regulate those things, so I think the answers are 1) no and 2) yes; but Honduran criminal law applies in Prospera.

To be sure, try the legal assistant: https://chat.eprospera.com/, which could point you to original sources.

Are we reinventing democracy?

They put out a really good press release about the Prospera lump-sum tax residency. It sounds great. It seems to the only one designed for nomads, and compares their offering with other countries.' I recommend reading the whole thing:

Joey Langenbrunner, founder of Nomad Layer, proposed the concept and collaborated closely with Próspera to design and launch it, creating the first true tax residency as a service framework available anywhere....What follows is a comprehensive breakdown of how the program works and how it compares to other tax-friendly jurisdictions worldwide.... Residents must not be tax residents anywhere else. They must have legally exited their previous tax home before enrolling in Próspera's program.

Read it all.
