Node Runner

Write a parody of Blade Runner called "node runner" about people who run Bitcoin nodes.

Title: Node Runner

INT. NODE RUNNER HEADQUARTERS - NIGHT

In the year 2049, the world economy relies on Bitcoin, a decentralized digital currency. Node Runners, a group of elite individuals, maintain the blockchain network by operating Bitcoin nodes.

JACK NODESON, a washed-up Node Runner, stares at a line of code on his screen. He sighs, takes a sip of his Crypto Cola, and types away.

JACK (V.O.)

All those nodes lost in time... like coins in the blockchain.

EXT. DARK ALLEY - NIGHT

Jack and his sidekick, LITE COINER, search for rogue nodes in the shadows. A mysterious figure appears.

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE
You're too late, Node Runner. The rogue nodes have already infiltrated the network.

Jack and Lite spring into action, chasing the Mysterious Figure across the city.

EXT. NODE RUNNER HEADQUARTERS - ROOFTOP - NIGHT

Jack corners the Mysterious Figure on the edge of the building. The rain pours down, lightning illuminates their faces.

JACK
Who's behind this? Who's controlling the rogue nodes?

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE
I can't tell you. They're too powerful. You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

Jack tackles the Mysterious Figure, pinning them down.

JACK
Try me.

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE
Alright, alright. It's... Satoshi Nakamoto.

Jack's eyes widen in disbelief. The legendary creator of Bitcoin, long thought to be a myth, is alive and orchestrating the chaos.

INT. SATOSHI'S LAIR - NIGHT

Jack and Lite, armed with the latest blockchain tech, infiltrate Satoshi's lair. They find a room filled with rows of high-powered computers, rogue nodes blinking ominously.

LITE COINER
We have to shut them down, Jack. The whole network's at stake.

JACK
No kidding, Lite. Let's do this.

They navigate through the maze of computers, unplugging rogue nodes one by one, restoring balance to the Bitcoin network.

EXT. SATOSHI'S LAIR - NIGHT

Jack and Lite, victorious, exit the lair. Satoshi Nakamoto, finally cornered, reveals himself.

SATOSHI
You may have stopped me this time, Node Runner, but the blockchain is ever-evolving. I'll return, stronger than ever.

JACK
And we'll be ready for you, Satoshi. We'll always be ready.

As Satoshi is taken away, Jack and Lite watch the sun rise over the city, knowing they've saved the Bitcoin network from the brink of destruction. For now.
