Map of network states (& cities)(there is surprising amount 🤯)

#TheNetworkState x New Cities @balajis network state is a powerful idea that is attracting lots of attention and talent to the space of competitive governance pioneered by @patrissimo Yet I encounter a lot of confusion about network states. To many, it seems like a Discord Server on steroids. Many are surprised when I say "but we're building new cities". I interpret the network state as a strategy innovation on how to govern the built world. I'm inspired by the idea that: “Bits reopen innovation in atoms. Innovation in areas like biomedicine, robotics, and energy is not upstream of the network state, it’s downstream of it.” (Balaji) I want network states and new cities to supercharge technological development in the real world. This map is my attempt to make sense of this nascent and fragmented space, to show it's possible to do that. I expect pushback and discussion around the concepts.
