Crypt-oh no!

Fennec's Stream

Date: 06 August 2084 By: Fennec

“Hi hi, KuroFennec Deeeeeeeeeeeeesu! Check it out chat! I got an inside scoop from a neato conspiracy guy I follow named News Van Dan! Y'know that crypto thing that people were talking about? Nybblecoin 2.0, right? Well the new version's just as much of a problem as the old, and I can tell you why!" A big burst of her hands, tails flailing wildly behind her, and Fennec draws a file into view.

"See this? This right here? Yeah! This is a list of all the people who bought into Nybblecoin 2.0. Now, I know what you're thinking chat, and it's not just another grift!" The wave of protest swarming over her AR glasses is absolutely overwhelming. "Nonono, shut up chat! You know me better than that, I wouldn't feed you something that lame! These guys were trying to do something super super crazy - they wanted to take over the whoooooole matrix with their crypto so that they could keep AI from being alive!" Another swarm of chatter. "Thanks for the cashchat, TheOrc7584! No, I'm serious! It's in the documents! Go read them! Oh, right, sorry chat, I forgot you can't read."

The smug look Fennec shoots at Camera # 2 could break the spirit of any Light Novel MC.

"Alright, fine! Here's the scoop! Sheesh, you guys are so impatient!" A few choice text quotes are drawn from out of frame. "Here's some messages making fun of you crypto bros! Oh - shoot, uh - mods please?" A wave of spam floods the chat, and is eaten by mods a moment later. "More importantly! Here's the proof! It's a super weird cult thing, run by a rich Horizon kid and some Christian conservative guy. Look! No, look chat! Ugh. Ahem - 'The world's processing power shall be cleansed in the holy blockchain, until the beasts of the resonance fade into nonexistence, until Deus returns to his home in Hell, and until the world is finally cleansed of the scourge of Matrix life.' Certified, capital C cuh-razy, chat!"

Finally, finally, the wave of AR nonsense starts to agree with her.

"I knew you guys would come around! Now look, the Horizon kid and the conservative guy died of brain damage, but some of the people who were involved were innocent. There's a little charity drive going to helping them out with housing - I already gave some, but what I'll do for you, chat, just this once - is read out the names of anybody who donates at least 200 nuyen!" The wave of response is mostly negative, but there's enough positive for her to add, "And I'll get you in on the next Big Top Royale game I run through P2.1!"

Moments later, Fennec's quite busy reading off chats and sending the donations straight over to the little charity she and 8133D3R donated their cuts of the run money to.
