to me, this sounds a lot like F.A. Hayek’s 1984 quote about sound money, just applied to states…
"I don't believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can't take it violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can't stop."
IMO forming a strong community online first is the “sly roundabout way” to build a new state. It only enters the physical world once it has a critical mass of people and resources behind it.
