      It’ll be interesting to watch someone establish a bank in a space station.

      Inevitable, probably.

        Yes sir we charge a nominal monthly fee to keep your account active when there is less than $2000 of deposits per month.

        Oh, you’d like to close your account? No problem, unfortunately we can’t do that over the phone but we’d be happy to help you with that in person at our head office in LEO.

      I hope there are measures to prevent exploitative delocalization. Did they think about it?

        If you do business there they can tax you… companies are free to profit exclusively off the citizens of the Cayman Islands if that’s their choice.

          exactly. I think all countries to impose a corp tax on their total profits and the corps can deduct any tax they pay somewhere else (if its not reinbursed or some other shenanigan shit) with a minimum of having to pay the percent for all bussiness done in that country. great side effect is it would stop the race to the bottom.
