People find it difficult to fathom sovereignty beyond their current idea of centralized nation states because they ignore underlying incentives and assume structures last forever. The modern nation-state emerged just over 100 years ago, best possible structure for the industrial era, yet prior to that sovereignty and the role of government into the daily lives of citizens was very different, and it will yet again be different as we go deeper into the “information age”.
This book 👇, written in 1996, is shockingly accurate about trends and technologies that came about in the last couple of decades. It doesn't get everything right, but enough to make you scratch your head in disbelief.
This is less about what's good or bad for retaining and maintaining sovereignty, but rather what is likely based on the coming era's mega-political conditions.
Sovereignty fragmentation is guaranteed for many reasons, but more interesting questions are how best to fragment in each given region and what will create lasting powerful sovereignties?
Technocrats believe it will be many smaller private kingdoms run by different oligarchs binding them by some arbitrary group identity like “bitcoiner” or “secular tech bro”. If everyone in the world is using bitcoin, then what is really holding together a Bitcoin sovereign society?
I disagree and reject their worldview. If humanity as we conceive it is to survive, we must embrace what makes us human, creating societies based on unifying characteristics like ethnicity, religion, tradition, and history. What works for one region may not for another, but one thing is certain: the centralized federal government's role and structure is going change forever in the near future.

If the Greater Israel™️ plan is real (it is) then you must ask yourself the following:
“Why would a tiny nation of perverts in the Middle East think they could explicitly conquer their neighbors, especially given the immense public outcry recently?”
You could say, “They own the US, so they can just do whatever they want.”
That is a simpleton’s response to that question. Obviously we know the US is occupied, but there are other sovereign nations in the world as well. There is also intense domestic pressure within the US to the point that members of Congress are getting booed by Boomers at their public events.
So given all of these variables, you would think they would be satisfied taking Gaza and maybe waiting a few years before they make their move— yet they continue unencumbered.
So think this through for me please. Why would they do this unless they were quite certain of success? Perhaps they recognize something you the reader doesn’t?
As I have been stating for a long time now, they recognize that the current monetary system is on the verge of collapse, whether it’s been done deliberately or not is almost irrelevant at this point. Once you see this reality, all of their moves make perfect sense. Their friend in this situation is chaos and uncertainty, and they will push them to the maximum.

Apologies to Muslim, Christian, Eastern, or Western masses (lovingly known as biomass ❤️). Most of you are clueless about the challenges we face and will likely never understand them, but that's okay. You'll hopefully be dragged into a better world whether you get it or not, so don't stress yourselves too much and just tag along.
But it's not all bad. A segment of our beloved biomass is critical for achieving targeted political goals: the young and politically energized men. They are a powerful force that must be wielded by the right visionary to have any chance at success. Energized young men with a goal have been the conduit of every great change in previous eras, whether positive or negative.
In the information age, the mega-political conditions allow even a small group of politically energized actors to organize quickly and make an outsized impact. Note that the politically energized segment in the US last decade was female-led social justice. They failed because they attacked fictional problems.
Compare that to the 20th century, where mega-political conditions favored those with established international networks in a world of expanding international collaboration and competition. Our Israelite friends succeeded because they had worldwide networks for centuries.
Unlike then, today's conditions are ideal for smaller players or groups to organize quickly and compete with larger ones. We're witnessing this firsthand with the Groyper Army in a different way. They are outcompeting the giant money pot of pro-establishment media by simply sheer passion and dedication, interestingly very human traits.
Though the situation looks bleak now, I'm confident each nation will find the young men to precipitate change, but it won't be smooth sailing. It must begin in the United States for many reasons, mainly because conditions here are ideal to test this with Nick and the Groypers but also this is the epicenter of fiat finance.

A message for Bitcoiners: as fun as HFSP is, it’s kind of meaningless if our society breaks down and there is chaos and strife for decades. Yeah you’ll personally be well off, but then again maybe not if there’s instability and security concerns.
If you own a significant amount of Bitcoin, you should not only be evangelizing, you should actively be thinking about how this Bitcoin backed world should be structured on a large scale. You’ll be stakeholders in that world and so you may as well shape it.
What’s the point of being rich but then living in systems designed by the worst among us. Yes there will be enclaves of peace and if you’re rich enough you can just run to those, but again is it worth the cost of suffering for millions or billions.
I’ve been in the space for so long, but I have yet to see a bitcoiner publicly discuss how this world should be shaped. Everything I’ve read or heard has been broad generalizations about the long term potential. In the meantime though, we are getting closer and closer to the end of fiat.
I wish we could direct the TikTok exodus to Nostr, someone should tell them!
Why Network States are inevitable if we assume hyperbitcoinization:
1). Nation States are all pretty much bankrupt already.
2). Btc accumulation takes a long time for nation state level actors without the price running away.
3). In a Bitcoin backed world, printing money is no longer an option, therefore current Nation States will get outcompeted due to their wasteful spending. Either they will adopt and become Networks or die.
4). As you can see below, individuals own most of the supply, so we will instantly see the rise of the sovereign individual.


Finally! May we replace X forever
