About Bitcitizen
Made for Bitcoiners who operate in the real world.
Bitcoin solved the money problem. The rest of your life still runs on legacy systems: passports, tax codes, corporate registries, banking compliance, and consular appointments. Bitcitizen exists to help you navigate those systems with the same rigor you apply to your Bitcoin stack.
The founder
Lived experience, not theory.
Adam Juchniewicz is a US Air Force veteran, holds an LL.M. in European and Comparative Law from the University of Malta, spent more than a decade at the US Department of Homeland Security working on immigration policy, and has been accumulating Bitcoin since 2020.
He built Bitcitizen because no firm existed that combined legal infrastructure, global mobility, and exit planning under one roof, built from day one for people who use Bitcoin as money and think in sats. He has filed residency applications firsthand and navigated immigration bureaucracies in person, across four continents; he is personally navigating Argentine residency while advising clients across the globe.

The thesis
Citizens build. Tourists pass through.
A tourist moves through systems without engaging them. They chase zero-tax destinations from tweet threads, form entities they do not understand, and acquire passports they treat as accessories. When the rules change, they move. They build nothing durable.
A citizen builds. They understand the legal architecture they operate within, maintain their entities, file their reports, and choose jurisdictions deliberately. They build infrastructure that survives regime changes, market cycles, and personal crises. Bitcitizen exists for the citizens.
Running a node is citizenship. Holding coins on an exchange is tourism. Verifying is citizenship. Trusting is tourism.
How the brands connect
One firm. Four arms. One sequence.
The ecosystem serves a natural progression. Not every client needs every step; many need only one. But no competitor connects them all under one roof.
21 CBI also operates cbi.vu, the Vanuatu vertical, and publishes the Bitcoin Passport Index. Renouncing without another citizenship would mean statelessness: the passport 21 CBI delivers is the prerequisite for the exit Exitly manages. That is the architecture. Beneath all four arms runs BitSettle, the open-source settlement rail the ecosystem is built on.

Pricing and payment
Every price is published.
Radical transparency is the ecosystem standard. Every fee is published, every trade-off is disclosed, and every limitation is named. BTC, Lightning, and USDT are our payment rails. Credit cards and bank transfers also accepted as needed. Bitcoin is the default; fiat is the exception.
