These steel behemoths, equipped with physical isolation chips, use their buckets to carve grooves three meters deep in the lunar soil.
When the last piece of radiation-proof lead sheet was embedded in the foundation, Xiao Zhen's voice came from his headset: "Close the internet bar."
Xiao Zhen pressed the biometric key on the terminal, and the accounts of thirteen hedge funds around the world instantly turned into amber on the blockchain.
