Coin(NaN)
In a city where money never stops moving, some people stop reaching altogether.
Coin is not about chasing wealth. It is about what happens when people are pushed so far down that they stop reaching altogether and only fight to keep what little remains. In a system where value circulates freely but dignity does not, innocence becomes the last uncontaminated force capable of interrupting the cycle.
