In 2077, Blockchain was a revolutionary concept that changed the global economy completely. Things were looking bright for humanity until the new AI-enhanced system was introduced. Governments from around the world formed an unusual alliance to implement this new system without the people’s consent. Everything was recorded, evaluated, and optimized, with the government monitoring all transactions. Satoshi Nakamoto, a young but brilliant cryptographer, discovered a dark truth that turned him into the world’s most wanted fugitive.
On the surface, Blockchain was free for everyone to use, but the government had secretly acquired more than 51% of the network’s hashing power, granting them control of all transactions. With everyone’s information at their fingertips, they held the world hostage. Nakamoto began working on a way to free humanity from their control. Word got out, and within a year, 7,777 mercenaries reprogrammed to bypass the government’s control took charge to free humanity.
Led by the legendary Satoshi Runners, a class of hybrid runners operating under Satoshi’s personal Blockchain network, they were impervious from external threats. Among them, ten special runners had the ability to control the Blockchain records just like the government. The government called them the boogeymen, but they were known on the streets as The Hackers.
