Satoshi Island Due Diligence
We understand that to some, the notion of a real private island being turned into a crypto paradise could be unbelievable at first glance. Without doing any due diligence the sceptical among us would likely see Satoshi Island as just another moon shot idea or even worse a straight up scam.
For the rightly sceptical crypto lovers and crypto haters we have prepared this due diligence article which we urge you to read and verify for yourself by doing research before writing off Satoshi Island as illegitimate
Is the island real and is Satoshi Island Limited really there?
Here are a number of links that can help you with your due diligence on this subject.
Check out the island on google maps:

*A listing for Lataro Island, the previous name for Satoshi Island. The term conservation reserve was mistakenly used in the listing. Conservation reserves are not able to be purchased by private buyers. There are no restriction to building on the island. Links for due dilligence on this topic can be found below.

Is the island really owned by Satoshi Island Limited and can the project even happen?
For verifying Satoshi Island Limited as owner of the island, the Vanuatu Investment & Migration Bureau (VIMB) can act as a reference. For those who wish to further verify the ownership , Satoshi Island Limited can be found on the Company and Land Registry Of Vanuatu.
Vanuatu Investment & Migration Bureau Website:
Vanuatu Financial Services Commision Website:
The Vanuatu Investment & Migration Bureau also helped us obtain support from the Vanuatu Ministry Of Finance, this can be confirmed by contacting them or by contacting the Ministry Of Finance Directly.
Department of Finance and Treasury Website:
We worked with Land Logic Limited, a well known company in Vanuatu to ensure that we were all clear to develop the island as advertised. They visited Satoshi Island and can confirm the viability of the project. Land Logic also helped arrange some of our video footage.
Land Logic Limited Website:
The President and the Secretary General of Sanma Province (where the island is located) are also in support of the project, as is their planning department. Land Logic Limited can also attest to this or you can reach out to them directly.

We have already built Satoshi Island Modules, the buildings that will be used on the island.

SUMMARY
When involving yourself with any project it is important to do your own research so we hope these links and descriptions help you with that process. Regarding official documentation, we of course hold all the necessary documents to prove ownerships of the island, as well as letters of support and permits but we have chosen not to publish these online as it is not difficult to forge documents so posting them would serve as little proof to their legitimacy. It is of much more significance for people to do their own due diligence to find such documents from the above links rather being provided them by the company.
