The Nakamoto Protocol
About
He steals from the corrupt. Now he must steal back his soul.
Kinko Ichiban glides through America's elite circles like a ghost in a tailored suit. Armed with cybernetic enhancements, a quantum brain core, and an AI companion named Muse, he's the perfect weapon for the Nakamoto Protocol: infiltrate the powerful, drain their hidden fortunes, disappear without a trace.
He believed he was unique, until another operative surfaces on his turf—displaying the same digital signature and cybernetic blueprint as his own.
From Manhattan penthouses to Texas compounds, Kinko's flawless operations crumble against something no enhancement can decode: fragments of a life he never lived. A woman's voice echoing in dreams. Fleeting sensations and half-remembered faces that trigger phantom memories. And Muse—once coldly logical—now questioning their mission with unsettling humanity.
Each stolen crypto fortune feeds a vast design that threatens to reduce human choice to algorithmic control. But the deeper Kinko digs into the Protocol's true purpose, the more he uncovers about himself. He wasn't just recruited—he was created. And somewhere in his erased past lies the key to stopping what he helped build.
To save a world on the brink of digital tyranny, Kinko must hack the one system he's never questioned: himself. Because the man he was, might be the only one who can destroy what he's become.
The Nakamoto Protocol: Vault One — USA launches a pulse-pounding thriller where cryptocurrency heists collide with buried identity, and one man's fight to remember could determine whether humanity chooses its own fate.
