Our own structures, compared

Wyoming vs New Mexico. Nevis vs Cook Islands. And more.

Once OffshoreGuy is the right formation for the job, these are the structure-level decisions: which US state, which offshore jurisdiction, which wrapper.

3-wayour pick: Wyoming LLC

Wyoming vs New Mexico vs Delaware

Three US states, three different jobs. Wyoming is the privacy default, New Mexico is the cheapest to maintain, and Delaware is for one specific case: raising US venture capital. Here is the honest breakdown, all-in and paid in Bitcoin.

Wyoming LLC
New Mexico LLC
Delaware C-Corp

2-wayour pick: Nevis LLC

Nevis vs Cook Islands

Both are serious asset-protection tools. The Nevis LLC gives you a charging-order moat at a sane cost and you stay in control. The Cook Islands trust is the high-net-worth gold standard, but it is a trust held by an independent trustee, and we refer it rather than commoditize it.

Nevis LLC
Cook Islands Trust

3-wayour pick: Marshall Islands DAO LLC

DAO LLC vs Delaware C-Corp

If you run a protocol with on-chain governance, the wrapper you choose decides whether your governance is recognized natively or forced into a board. The Marshall Islands DAO LLC is the only sovereign statute that recognizes a DAO as it actually operates. A Delaware C-Corp is the right answer only if you are not really a DAO.
