Case Study: Burning Man

A temporary city of 70,000+ — where a Z Private Network turns radical self-reliance into radical abundance.

Population

~70,000

Duration

9 Days

Unique Factor

Gift Economy

Why Burning Man?

Black Rock City operates as a gift economy, but logistics — water, fuel, art support — still need value exchange. Current methods (cash, donations, outside sponsorships) don't capture the immediacy of abundance within the Playa.

Opportunity

Commission a temporary Z Network to anchor gifts in Solar equivalence.
Support large-scale art with instant transparent funding flows.
Offer participants proof-of-participation artifacts backed by Solar.
