Is NTARI a Network State?
Balaji Srinivasan described network states as:
"a social network with a moral innovation, a sense of national consciousness, a recognized founder, a capacity for collective action, an in-person level of civility, an integrated cryptocurrency, a consensual government limited by a social smart contract, an archipelago of crowdfunded physical territories, a virtual capital, and an on-chain census that proves a large enough population, income, and real-estate footprint to attain a measure of diplomatic recognition,"

The Network Theory Applied Research Institute develop apps that achieve this amazing compression in other social and economic pursuits. What exactly are we creating through these efforts? Balaji Srinivasan argues these might be called "network states"
