European anarcho-capitalist movement: is there any?
I’m seeing a lot of wonderful growth in the libertarian Anarcho-Capitalist movement in North and South America. But I’m not seeing European anarcho-capitalist movements. I would like to know about European AnCap libertarians. Does anybody know?

I can’t speak to European domiciled initiatives other than liberland,, but CYCLE, hosted by Lobe Tiggre here at Liberty,Me, and Students For Liberty have very successful libertarian orinted programs in Europe

That’s great news. I’d like to know more about them and how their programs are doing. Also I think it would be good to contact and exchange information with them, as well as with all libertarians on this planet. It would be great to join forces.
There is Institute of Cryptoanarchy in Prague: https://www.paralelnipolis.cz/o-nas/en/
I started my own Institute (also in Prague), but it is still in early development. Working class is lazy here 🙂
I would suggest you contact Philipp Bagus. He ought to know.
Well in Spain you can find the p-lib, it is a libertarian party, not exactly anarchist, only libertarian but it is the closest you can get.
Also we have a famous anarchocapitalist economist, Jesús Huerta de Soto.

His books made me appreciate the Austrian School and he is the first Anarcocapitalista that I have met.
It doesn’t really feel like there is a movement… I do think people are slowly waking up, and I have seen an increase in people in my circle of friends calling themselves anarchist in the past year – and an increase in minarchistst/classical liberals saying “I’m not an anarchist – yet” or “I’m an anarchist in principle, but…”
In Hungary various websites have emerged, having anarcho-capitalist content. Also, Murray Rothbard books have been translated to HU, which is a huge move considering he had just about 0 popularity, and where they knew him was English-speaking U.S.. Now, what Europe does have in probably every country, is alternative conservative movements and TV shows, where they do expose the world banking interests, the globalists, and etc.. This (libertarianism) is harder in Europe, considering the very socialist mindset, coming from the association of their governments as a protection of their ethnic and cultural unity. So that is why it is not so popular. Also, I don’t think Europe is ready for libertarian/anarchic ideologies. Should that get popular there, the globalists and world organizations would jump at the opportunity to dismantle the society, roll in their “multiculturalism”, take advantage of the economies, and structure their plan as to roll in their desired liberal, bureaucratic totalitarian governments (not that they don’t already have that, except they would have it easier without any cultural unity/history and intellect).
We are here, but few, and far between! People are beginning to wake up, but it could be a generation behind North America and Latin America. Socialism, especially in Western Europe, is much more firmly entrenched.
How do you convince a cute little Yorkshire Terrier, who has never left the comfort of his heated home, and had every meal provided for his entire life, that outside the door, just past the neighbour’s angry-looking German Shepherd, there is a world of freedom and prosperity? When the food in the house runs out, and the Yorkie’s master dies, no longer pays the heating bill, and no longer provides a warm bed and deluxe food, the Yorkie will have no choice but to adapt and venture into the real world.
