Chip War Atlas

Live geopolitical map of the global semiconductor stack — fabs, materials, equipment, embargoes, dependencies.

Modern computation rests on a stack so concentrated it should be a security agency's first PowerPoint. ASML in Veldhoven; TSMC in Hsinchu; pure-grade gallium in Yunnan; photoresist in Shizuoka; HBM in Icheon; advanced packaging in Tainan. Chip War Atlas is one map across all of it — every layer of the stack, every chokepoint country, every sanction event timestamped.

For founders: where to source. For policymakers: where to harden. For everyone else: where the next outage actually starts.
