Year 2132.
Civilization has completely transitioned to digital form. Physical boundaries have blurred, states have dissolved, only networks remain. At the center of this new reality is Crypta — a global blockchain supporting everything from the economy to legal proceedings.
Every human life is a contract. Birth is recorded in a block, actions are fixed in a chain, and death is the final hash. In return — stability, order, eternal digital transparency.
But one day the network gets stuck. Block number 999999 cannot be confirmed. The nodes are silent. The consensus algorithm is broken. Panic spreads.
In the storage of old protocols, hidden in the icy caves of Greenland, Lux Turner awakens — a crypto-archivist from the 'Genesis' project, frozen a hundred years ago 'in case of a civilization failure.'
He connects to the network. Everything has changed. People no longer make decisions — Crypta does. Power belongs not to those who are right, but to those whose digital reputation is higher.
Lux finds the cause of the failure: someone tried to submit an unsigned, unauthorized transaction from a non-existent wallet into block 999999.
But the hash of this transaction is an exact copy of the first block from Genesis. This is impossible. Or… too precisely planned?
Someone — or something — has initiated a loop. Block 999999 was not a mistake. It was a transition.
Lux faces a choice: to restore the chain, returning the world to digital stability, or to let the failure destroy everything — freeing humanity from the power of the blockchain.
He presses a key.
And chooses the third path.
