Lin Fan is on the verge of dying from exhaustion after delivering takeout when his phone suddenly receives a text from an unknown sender: “A birthday gift: ten bitcoins. Key: ****.”
With nowhere else to turn, he gives it a try and actually opens an encrypted wallet worth millions! Before he can recover from the dizzying shock of getting rich, fragments of information about the future occasionally begin intruding into his mind, or perhaps they're extremely brief System notifications that sometimes cut out... From then on, Lin Fan uses bitcoin to pave his way through a life of showing off, face-slapping his gold-digging ex, scorning his snobbish boss, and toying with arrogant rich second-generation heirs. But he soon realizes this windfall wasn't just a gift from heaven. It is tied to a massive whirlpool.
Every seemingly successful display of wealth and every investment pushes him into greater danger. One power after another enters the fray, and allies and enemies become hard to tell apart... Does someone seem to anticipate his every move?
Ten coins from the start, and they're all he needs to show off! But Lin Fan's goal is more than flaunting his wealth. He must use his wits and courage to win this global shadow war once and for all!
