At the Versailles peace conference after WW1 Norway was granted sovereignty over Spitsbergen (Svalbard in modern parlance). The Spitsbergen treaty was signed in 1920 and entered into force five years later. Today, a total of 44 countries are parties to the treaty. Citizens of these states are free to travel to Svalbard and work there. This digital coin celebrates what in all probability is the most fascinating international treaty ever.
www.svalbard.money is a Norwegian NFT-project initiated by SpareBank 1; the second largest finance group in Norway. The fascinating monetary history in Svalbard constitutes the core of the project: In the 20th century, American, British, Norwegian, Russian/Soviet and Swedish coal companies issued local currencies in Svalbard; notes and (Soviet) coins; money based upon real mining and physical proof of work.
The digital Svalbard notes are unique reproductions of various Anglo-Russian, Norwegian and Soviet Svalbard notes. The decentralized production of such notes ceased on February 7th 2022 when the Ethereum blockchain reached block nr. 14159265.
