Paralelní Polis is a one-of-a-kind nonprofit organization founded by members of a contemporary-art group Ztohoven. The mission of Paralelní Polis is to provide the technology and education people need to participate in an independent society and protect their individual freedom. The vision of Paralelní Polis is a world where people have the opportunity to disengage from the state and live in a free society.Currently, there are four concepts united under the roof and brand of Paralelní Polis;
- Bitcoin Coffee club café,
- co-working space Paper Hub,
- Institute of Cryptoanarchy with its educational program,
- which is streamed online from our Stream Studio since March 2020.
The project intends to remain state-free as it operates entirely without support from the government, and most of the funds come from voluntary contributions of our donors and partly from our commercial activities.

The current broadcast schedule of our studio mimics the original programming scheme of physical meetups; art-science-technology, with a program addition for advanced Bitcoin users, based on traditional bitcoin meetups. While other YT channels recycle the same topics and personalities over and over again, we decided not to make clickbait content based on candlestick charts but to break things down in depth.
Our audiovisual studio is available for rent. If you are looking for a high-quality space for your production, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Event Details
Paralelní Polis brings you another Pizza Day Prague!
The pizza-2-pizza conference is a call to arms for advocates of Bitcoin as peer-to-peer technology.
A dozen years have passed since the first trade of pizza for Bitcoin. Today, we celebrate the widespread popularity and adoption of this delicious dish. It has been embraced by individuals, businesses, and even national governments. We are truly witnessing the rise of the hyper-pizzanization of our world.
Yet, just as the pizza industry has evolved from sit-down restaurants to delivery services to frozen pizzas, the Bitcoin ecosystem has similarly moved from face-to-face transactions to third-party intermediaries. But just as frozen pizzas can never truly replace the experience of a freshly-made pie, third-parties can never fully replace the trustless nature of P2P transactions.
We believe that by using Bitcoin as intended, a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, we can create a more secure, efficient, and fair financial system. We reject the need for third parties and spofs, and extol cryptography to empower truly trustless systems. P2P technologies not only enable more robust and smooth economic structures, but most importantly they bring global coordination without the need for hierarchies. Still, we must resist the temptation to build walls and instead strive to create bridges, fostering a culture of technological meritocracy and collaboration.
As contemporary cypherpunks, it is our duty to fight for the ideals of decentralization and trustlessness in the face of challenges from governments, the public, and even within our own communities. As Bitcoin allows us to connect directly with one another without the need for trusted third parties, so too can we envision a future where pizza enthusiasts can savor their favorite dish without intermediaries.
Join us in the fight for a decentralized future where the power of peer-to-peer technology enables true pizza freedom for all. Let us embrace the power of the pizza-to-pizza revival and celebrate the genuine spirit of the original Bitcoin pizza transaction.

DeFi is under siege.
The industry has arrived at a point where it is no longer sufficient to just keep saying “let’s get back to building”. We risk losing a bankless future unless the community comes together and collaborates on an action plan. Does the plan involve collaborating with the legacy establishment, or is it centered around scorched-earth policy? What are the key pillars of the plan? The community needs to decide, the industry needs to take action.
For this purpose, Prague DeFi Summit, and the event build-up, has been designed around community collaboration and idea iteration. The Summit is going to be filled with presentations, panels, fireside chats, and networking. Are we ready to seize the opportunity?

Conference & Hackathon
ETHPrague isn’t looking for the next get-rich-quick scheme or groundbreaking DeFi apps. Instead, it’s an event focused on the future of Ethereum and potential concepts or applications that don’t yet exist.
We want to tackle challenges that could arise in the next decade because we believe Ethereum will play a major role in solving problems. The future is in your hands, anon! You decide whether we end up living in a dark authoritarian dystopia or a bright solarpunk utopia.
