Background:This story happens in 2050 A.D, the promise of bitcoin for those who believed bitcoin will create a financial renaissance and social equality ultimately failed.Those who believed the decentralization in every field will create a better world ultimately failed. Not only bitcoin failed, the whole world failed. Yes, welcome to this dystopian world of new order.
Let’s see what and how it all failed. Climate change, increased the ocean floor and many coastal areas of many countries were swallowed by sea around 2030 A.D. New biological weapons such as Super Ebola was used by terrorist to create a global pandemic resulted in reduction of world’s population from 7 billion to roughly 350 million.
The world was ruled by one world government, which simply meant local governments lost all their powers because of the defaults and the massive balance of payments, Eurozone and Asia combines into one single entity called “Eurasian union” bitcoin was the defacto and world’s reserve currency. There were only two mega corporations which ran the entire world “ENERGON” and “GODLE”. The political system was full of crony capitalism and corruption. The centralization of bitcoin is because of the massive mining power these two mega corporations possessed. There was one world police and military force called the United Security Alliance (USA).
When it comes to bitcoin, lot of things happened over the years which made bitcoin a highly centralized currency. Firstly after 2016 Wall Street money poured into the bitcoin space which made bitcoin reach more than a million dollars per coin creating lot of millionaires and billionaires around the world. But bitcoin concentration kept on increasing only in the hands of the few and in the 2020’s all those having bitcoins were killed by autonomous drones from decentralized anonymous autonomous assassination organizations (DAAAO), in a mad race to obtain bitcoin, while the rich and super rich could afford security measures against these DAAAO the middle class people could not stand a chance. People were limited to having a few satoshis. Any other form of digital currency was outlawed.
The wealth inequality was at its worst, the rich and super rich lived in ecofriendly super cities while the middle class and poor were to live away from the city where the living condition is like slums of today.
The largest extremist force were the “Decentra” who are anarchist and believe only extremism can bring back the decentralization in this screwed up world. Their objective is to develop technology which would lessen wealth inequality and sabotage whatever promoting the centralization.
Technologically humanity was close to achieving singularity, human brain backup was made possible but no technology yet to activate or bring back those stored quantum information. The rich and super rich had their personality and memory backed up while the middle class and poor could not.
The threat of further destruction of global warming was looming, which forces mankind to setup habitat in Mars, which were under construction. The 1% is assured of mars travel, while the 99% dream and hope of a miracle that could save them.
Atleast Satoshi’s keys could save them!
Satoshi’s keysIn the wake of many who possessed bitcoin being murdered and bitcoin becoming a highly centralized currency, to everyone’s surprise the satoshi profile makes a post in the p2p foundation on 2022A.D. the post consist of 8 pages of cryptographic codes with a foot note “ Let it rain, Save them all”.
Satoshi’s was never heard of then, it was believed satoshi was also killed in those serial murders.
Fast forward to 2050 A.D, It was a Monday morning, and Commander Shepherd (protagonist), a highly efficient and skillful Sergeant was asked to meet the USA special task force unit chief. Upon meeting, shepherd was assigned to a covert operation involving search and rescue of staff and research equipment of Energon’s research and development facility at Antarctica.
Intelligence reports that Energon’s large R&D facility was attacked by armed men of Decentra who sabotaged and kidnapped nearly 10 research personnel and there is a hostage situation. Shepherd has to track down and rescue the staff. The USA’s central Intelligence (CI) the most powerful artificial intelligence postulates that they are being held at a remote forest in Brazil. Shepherd is assigned new team members who believe this is a usual raid on decentra’s location. Much of information is not disclosed. Shepherd is assured of a backup if the rescue process turns out to be difficult.
When shepherd arrives, the AI was right and decentra counter fires shepherd’s VTOL. in the encounters, all of shepherd’s men and some decentra men die, the VTOL is destroyed and shepherd communicates back to the USA control room for backup, shockingly all the communication are severed making shepherd wonder why? And the backup does not arrive! This Decentra faction was headed by Nazar. Who captures shepherd and leaves along with the two Energon’s research personel and mysteriously a young girl to another undisclosed location.
When shepherd recovers in captivity, shepherd encounters many awful truths which ultimately shakes the foundation of his world view, beliefs and ideology.
What happens to shepherd?
Why the communication severed and shepherd was ignored?
What happened to those 8 other research personnel?
Who is that mysterious girl?
Stay tuned…
