PeaceLand - Metaprose App Delivers World Peace

Date 01/04/2022

Z/Yen's continuing quest to promote societal advance through better decisions about technology and finance has led to a major advance in world peace. PeaceLand is our new 'Metaprose' App that so consumes dictators' attention they have no time for real conflicts such as war or special military operations. We were inspired by Herbert Simon's (1916-2001) insights to distract the dictators, “What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention, and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it.” By combining our work on the Metaverse, on smart ledgers, geocoding, indices, and even on NFTs, we have created a Metaprose Land so addictive that dictators who fall into it are completely consumed. We are delighted to have launched PeaceLand to a small range of dictators with such fantastic results that peace reigns throughout. While we are unwilling to open such an extensive world to untrained players, you can have a taste of the global competition in the world market of Z/Yen's world prediction market, ExtZy.
