I'm a great admirer of both Gabriel Delgado and Erick Brimen. They are heroes with ground-breaking vision. I've met them and seen their unshakeable conviction.
However, they aren't the only heroes of the ZEDE story. Without Octavio Sanchez and Carlos Pineda, they would not have had the opportunity to bring their vision into reality. Octavio Sanchez was the Honduran official who first conceived of the idea of a special administrative zone with maximum autonomy bringing prosperity to Honduras. Carlos Pineda was his friend who did most of the heavy lifting of championing the legislation, constitutional amendment, and investor protections through a largely corrupt government.
It doesn't take anything away from the founders of Próspera to give credit to the Hondurans who worked so hard to bring freedom and prosperity to their country. In fact, it counters the false narrative of foreign investors "exploiting" poor Hondurans.
I am a member of an informal technical nation called Immortalis which is growing rapid;y and has about 1000 members in 42 nations. It operates on the theory that when we under throw all the world's governments, there will be no one to stand in the way of human progress and science and humans will solve all the problems of diseases and, eventually, death itself, making all the survivors 'immortals[' with the exception of accidents and criminals. The head of Immortalis is meeting in March with Millei in Argentina and his son is speaking in Prospera to spread the word about Immortalis there.You can find out about Immortalis on joinimmortalis.com. Keep up the god work.

I met him! He was a speaker and I was co-hosting.
Just when we need to overthrow another government, USAID is out of business.
Interesting story. A cautionary tale.
Always interested in these kinds of reports, Max! Thanks for sharing this one.
