When cryptography meets quantum computer, and cryopreserved bodies hide secrets worth millions it only takes one bad actor to unleash a thrilling action. - crypto bitcoin
A group of bitcoin miners attend an annual cryptography conference in a tropical resort. Dr. W Shagwell, a renowned researcher, presents his findings on the decreasing profitability of bitcoin mining due to market conditions, increasing competition, and rising costs of electricity and equipment.
He predicts that in the future, miners will be paid by transaction fees only, not by newly mined bitcoins. Peter and Olivia, two miners in the audience, discuss the complexity of mining and the challenges they face. Later, they attend a stand-up comedy event, where one of the comedians mocks Dr. Shagwell's presentation and the struggles of bitcoin miners. The comedian jokes about selling mining computers to profit from the situation, but is met with disapproval from the audience.
