As pointed out before, the costs of just keeping one of these things afloat can be pretty enormous.

The thing about this country is that it would require some somewhat significant productivity to enable it to survive, so to speak.

the obvious answer is
>oil lmao

But its not likely any of these are remotely profitable in the current market, which is why they're cheap. What else could you do on one of these that could make them profitable, and allow its inhabitants as well as the "government" to thrive?

We would need to do something economically beneficial to the international community.

My ideas so far for core economic productivity:

>becoming a legal tax shelter for corporations (competing taxes)
>providing financial services, specifically something like a bank that has a fixed, HIGH fractional reserve ratio, aka no gubmint funny money (don't mistake how valuable this can be), no bullshit FDIC etc
>crypto mining
if the country was somewhere cold, in general, you would have LOTS of nice cold ocean water. Additionally, if one had a decent way to ensure reasonably priced electricity, one could make a pretty good setup for crypto minning utilizing the cold water for cooling.
>non-governmental limited research
most governemnts have limits on research like stem cells, certain social experiments, gene editing etc. Providing a place for people to do this could be lucrative
>prostitution an obvious given
>Could make a nice drug market, utilize "government" transportation services such as helicopter and boat to bring "tourists"/visitors

what else could one utilize the exclusivity of a nation-state type entity to benefit economically from?

Don't forget to take profits. Keep the greed at bay.

Better question is, who here is ready to try and pull a quick short on LINK? and ideas on price targets?
