Pre-Collapse Era

The Path to the Collapse (2020-2045)

The seeds of humanity's downfall were planted decades before the Great Collapse. Following the financial crises of the early 21st century, the world underwent a radical transformation toward complete blockchain integration. The "Chain Revolution" began with cryptocurrency adoption but quickly expanded into every aspect of human civilization.

Key developments included:

  • The Global Chain Protocol (GCP) of 2025, which standardized blockchain governance

  • The Neural Chain Initiative of 2030, connecting human neural interfaces to blockchain systems

  • The World Resource Distribution Network (WRDN) of 2035, managing all global resources through smart contracts

  • The Digital Identity Act of 2040, requiring all humans to maintain blockchain-verified digital identities

By 2045, human civilization had achieved unprecedented efficiency and prosperity, but at the cost of absolute technological dependence. The old systems of paper records, manual controls, and analog backups were dismantled and forgotten.
