[THE OPPORTUNITY]

Machine-readable law for the nation that proved small countries set the standards.

In 2021, El Salvador proved that a small nation with political will can set global standards. Bitcoin was the first move. The AI economy needs a second: law that machines can read and follow. The nation that publishes executable law first will attract the capital, talent, and technology of the next century.
