Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash is an exciting cyberpunk novel set in a future where nation-states have collapsed and power resides in corporate-run micro-territories and private city-states. The story follows Hiro Protagonist—a hacker, samurai, and pizza delivery guy, as he uncovers a mind-altering virus spreading through both the metaverse and the real world.
For Bitcoiners, Snow Crash hits close to home. It explores a fragmented world of decentralised governance, digital money, private citadels, and code-driven societies—ideas that resonate strongly with Bitcoin culture. It touches on themes like sovereign individuals, opt-in economies, and the breakdown of fiat-based systems.
Snow Crash shares a vision of what could emerge when technology races ahead of the state and when people start building parallel systems and new rules from the ground up.
