  You might find the Multireal trilogy by Davis Louis Edelman interesting: https://www.amazon.com/Infoquake-Jump-225-Trilogy-v/dp/15910... Not the best writing in the world but several of these ideas are touched upon before it kinda goes off the deep end. A fun read at least.

  …is open, scenic, wild, & so so vivid, one of the most beautiful worlds I've ever visited, & it reminds me so much of a joyous wild swashbuckling run. The mystery of the main character is enchanting. Infoquake series by David Louis Edelson is a gripping suspenseful rise of a star entrepreneur that redefines and radically expands the world, amid an already boisterous & full & busy beautiful world already overflowing…

The last really future-facing cyberpunk novel I can remember reading was Infoquake, and reviewers kept saying that was "practically cyberpunk" or "had elements of cyberpunk". And then at the other end of things, Altered Carbon has humans as an interstellar species, but still gives…

  I read Multireal, which is the follow up to Infoquake. They deal with a startup producing software that runs inside people, executed by tiny nanobots. The books explore startup culture.
