Cryptonoria is not run by a traditional government. At the top of the social hierarchy reigns a secretive and powerful elite known as the High Spheres. Made up of crypto-billionaires, metaverse designers and virtual industry tycoons, this caste has created a new world order based on the digital economy, the exploitation of humanity and absolute control of resources.

Members of the High Spheres inhabit extravagant, impenetrable residences, floating high above the main city or perched in secret areas, far from the ordinary world. Their palaces are implausible works of architecture, adorned with technological artistry and rare materials that only they can afford. Some own private islands, which they govern as independent micro-states, where they set their own laws. These territories are as much leisure fortresses as laboratories for their personal experiments, where anything goes. Members of the High Spheres indulge their desires, often to the extreme, and indulge in activities forbidden elsewhere, using their power without hindrance.
