Justin Sun, a well-known cryptocurrency billionaire, has been elected prime minister of Liberland for the fifth straight time, according to results announced Wednesday. The micronation, located between Serbia and Croatia, holds blockchain-based elections every three months.
In these elections, participants must first stake Liberland Merits (LLM), the official governance token, to vote. The voting process uses the “Pergamon algorithm” to allocate staked tokens proportionally among candidates, aiming to provide fair representation for all voters. According to Liberland’s official announcement, Sun initially staked 6.8 million LLM and ended up with a final stake of 997,000 LLM and a score of 687, more than double that of the runner-up, “Blueocean786.”
Liberland officials noted that a high initial token stake does not ensure an election win, but Sun has secured victory in five consecutive ballots. Alongside Sun, Brittany Nicole Kaiser, known for her role in the Cambridge Analytica case, was elected as a congresswoman. Other positions filled include Tariq Abbasi as secretary of state, Navid Saberin as minister of finance, Michal Ptacni as minister of justice, Dorian Stern Vukotic as secretary of technology, and Karnika Yashwant as congressman.
Despite his leadership role, Liberland’s records indicate Sun has not physically visited the territory. Reaching Liberland requires travel to Croatia and a significant trek to its location near the town of Zmajevac. If the Danube River’s water levels are high, visitors may need to arrive by boat or swim across, as detailed in Liberland’s official guide on how to visit.
Since launching its blockchain elections in October 2024, Liberland has promoted digital governance and aims to put all legislation “on-chain” by the end of the year. The micronation has announced strategic partnerships, including with cryptocurrency exchange Bifinance, and offers its Liberland Dollar token through various platforms.
While physical infrastructure developments have included a beach bar and treehouse, the territory is still far from its planned $30 million upgrade, including an 18-hole golf course. The government has also issued a call for permanent residents as it continues expanding both its digital and physical presence.
