The Great Hash Rate Race
When a mining operation discovers its algorithm is folding proteins instead of generating hashes, the cures emerge faster than anyone can contain them. Disease structures cascade through open repositories, forking and spreading across networks. Pharmaceutical empires collapse. GRIND-7 and the financiers watching civilization reshape itself confront an impossible equation: the cures are real, the destruction is real, and both flow from the same computation. No one built this as a weapon. No one consented to become something capable of reshaping the world's economy in weeks. But the algorithm continues running, solving disease after disease, and some questions, once answered, cannot be unasked. The only remaining question is which cure you want to put back—and what comes next when the algorithm keeps running.
