What a Vanuatu passport costs, in Bitcoin.
The all-in price is fixed in dollars. The Bitcoin price is not. So the real cost, to a Bitcoiner, is whatever your sats are worth on the day. This is that number, live, and charted since 2021. No other citizenship program publishes it.
Bitcoin price live from CoinGecko; history reconciled from CoinGecko daily closes. The dollar figures are the all-in totals from the cbi.vu pricing schedule, verified against 21cbi.io and Order No. 33 of 2019. CIIP figures are shown gross; $50,000 of the CIIP outlay is a fund subscription redeemable after four years. Not a quote: your exact file is confirmed on a call.
A fixed price, in a falling unit.
Every other firm quotes citizenship in dollars and stops there. For a Bitcoiner, that hides the real question: how many sats does this actually cost, and where is that number going? The dollar figure has barely moved in years. Measured in Bitcoin, the same passport cost more than 8 BTC in the depth of the 2022 bear market and a fraction of that today. We are not promising it keeps falling – Bitcoin is volatile, and the chart shows the bear-market spikes honestly. We publish it because it is the honest unit for this audience, and because the entire file, the government contribution included, settles in BTC, Lightning, or USDT after compliance clearance.
The narrative behind the number is in the Journal: Priced in Bitcoin: what a Vanuatu passport really costs your stack.
