Will Bitcoin ever replace the dollar? This brilliant Stanford dropout didn't create Bitcoin, but a cryptocurrency no less audacious and profound-a digital dream known as LunaCoin. Imagine a dollar-without its physical form or the Treasury Secretary's signature. LunaCoin is a dollar, conjured from lines of code and maintained precariously with a novel algorithm devised by a young visionary Korean couple. Inspired by the true events of 2022, this novel chronicles the blazing rise and ruin of LunaCoin. Once hailed as the most ingenious stablecoin ever, LunaCoin established the standard. It was money born of math. Frictionless, permissionless. Once it collapsed, however, $60 billion dollars evaporated into the ether.
But this isn't a tale of coins.
Do and Luciana. The CEO and the CTO. Jobs and Wozniak. Bill and Hillary. Their revolutionary algorithm thrived on the interplay of the stablecoin and the sistercoin. Yet ambition has long demanded the sacrifice of humanity. The creators of LunaCoin-partners in both ambition and love-struggled to protect their bond. The best thing about Do is that he'll break past walls to etch his unquenchable ambition into reality. The worst thing about him is that he sees everything as a wall-even her. The cataclysm of cryptocurrency's greatest experiment catalyzed a cascade of crisis. The closure of numerous crypto firms. The collapse of giant exchange platforms such as FTX. Chaos erupted as the cries of everyday lives echoed, with their savings and the fruits of their labor crumbling like a house of cards. Whispers of regulation turned into thunderous cries for reform, even echoing through the halls of power as the Secretary of the Treasury invoked LunaCoin's name in congressional hearings.
It's a tale of characters. And Luna Nuna will provide ringside seats.
