In the post-Singularity world depicted in the novel Singularity Sky [1] the IETF has taken over the UN because the concept of nation or money or army is now meaningless. It would be a nice thought experiment to think for a second of a UN organisation that is consensus-based, not vote based and whose resolutions are not binding in case the market expects a different outcome. Oh, wait, it is exactly how it is run now. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singularity_Sky https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singularity_Sky
