From the Yuan Ultimatum to the Network State

A visual adaptation of the ryo.news seven-part series From the Yuan Ultimatum to the Network State. The series explores the fragmentation of the global monetary order, the rise of digital monetary blocs, financial chokepoints, neutral and private money, and the possibility of network-based forms of sovereignty. It follows the argument from the Yuan Ultimatum through the breakdown of institutional trust and ultimately to the role technologies such as Ryo Currency could play in a more decentralized monetary future.
