The Shadow of Genesis is a cyberpunk dystopian thriller, blending technological suspense, paranoid conspiracy, and social commentary on decentralization and power.

Plot:

"On October 18, 2025, Satoshi Nakamoto emerges from 16 years of silence, signing a post on X with the genesis block's private key. He distributes his 1,000,000 BTC fortune equally to thousands of Bitcoin full node operators worldwide—a $50M windfall per recipient. As markets crash and governments scramble..."

the story follows four perspectives:

Ji-hoon (Seoul), a devoted node runner; Cipher (Brooklyn), a Bitcoin Core veteran decoding Satoshi's secrets; Kenji & Aiko (Tokyo), clashing generations in finance's collapse; Zero (Reykjavik), a Genesis Guardian uncovering the smart contract's sentient-like behavior.

Key Elements: Multi-perspective narrative spanning Seoul, New York, Tokyo, and Reykjavik Stacker News as the bitcoin community's reaction hub, buzzing with zaps and debates

Themes: Decentralization vs. control, Satoshi's ambiguous identity (human? collective? AI?), and digital revolution's chaos.
