The Network State is an idea for the future of digital communities, where minds come together for collective action, autonomy, and the development of new nations outside traditional state structures. A social movement that unites tech-friendly people, creators, and innovators, this community is focused on the possibilities of a decentralized society where members band together virtually, crowdfund physical territories, and gain recognition from existing governments. Events organized through River will allow members to connect in person, build meaningful alliances, and discuss future plans for the expansion of the Network State concept.
