š From The Network State to the World Republic
Taking Balajiās Vision From Theory to Infrastructure
In The Network State, Balaji Srinivasan shared a radical idea: that we can now build nations in the cloud. Online-first, values-driven communities that start small and scale into sovereign statesāverified by crypto, not borders.
But ideas need infrastructure.
Thatās where the World Republic begins.
š What Is the World Republic?
Built on Worldchain, an Ethereum Layer 2, the World Republic is a blockchain-native civilization with:
ā World ID ā self-sovereign, biometric-compatible identity
šø UBI ā automatic, on-chain income for every verified person
š³ļø On-chain Political Parties ā global parties, transparent elections
šļø DAO Governance ā laws, budgets, and services run by smart contracts
š§Ŗ New Voting System ā under testing now for party elections and proposals
No borders. No legacy gatekeepers. Just coordination, code, and citizenship by choice.
š” Why It Matters
While traditional systems crumble under pressure, the World Republic is:
Running live UBI
Offering borderless digital identity
Hosting political experimentation in real time
Built entirely in the open, by and for its citizens
This is not a speculative idea. Itās a working prototype for the next layer of civilization.
š Build. Opt In. Govern.
Whether you're a dev, a voter, a thinker, or a builderā
The World Republic is open to you.
You donāt need to move countries.
You just need to switch chains.
