Booted from Malaysia, tech guru Balaji Srinivasan finds a new patron for his ‘nomad’ commune: Kazakhstan
Balaji Srinivasan, a tech guru and former Coinbase CTO, had his Network School in Malaysia shut down after a regulatory crackdown linked to Israeli nationals, leading him to sign a new agreement with Kazakhstan for his 'nomad' commune. Malaysian authorities revoked the school's licenses, citing licensing violations, while Srinivasan aims to establish a techno-optimism hub in Central Asia.
