Cassie Vey wasn’t just any crypto influencer. She was the ultimate degen queen. Her tweets could send token prices flying faster than a whale hitting “BUY.” Her memes created more hype than actual news.
She was booked solid: paid tweets, live Q&As, and even a super-secret livestream just to hype “Banana Puff Coin” (yes, a cigar-smoking banana was its mascot). Life was perfect… until she woke up see-through.
Not “ignored-online” invisible. Poof! Gone! She looked in the mirror. Only her toothbrush stared back.
Day 1: Panic mode (but make it professional)
“Okay, okay, I can handle this,” Cassie thought. “I can still type! I can still trade! I can still yell in Discord!” Then it hit her: Her sponsors wanted FaceTime calls. No face? No FaceTime. She tried selling it: “Guys, chill! It’s my new vibe. Post-Visible. Totally Web4!” But they weren’t buying it.

Day 2: The phantom shill strikes!
Time for Plan B. Cassie fired up her webcam for the Banana Puff livestream and started talking like normal. Chat went NUTS:
“UM… WHERE IS SHE?!”
“Is this some fancy NFT avatar thing?”
“BULLISH SIGNAL! BUYING THE DIP!!”
It was her biggest audience ever. Everyone thought it was a genius stunt. Banana Puff Coin? It shot up 300% before she even logged off.

Day 3: Things get seriously spooky
Still invisible. But now… weird powers? When Cassie looked at a price chart, she saw glowing trails, red for crashes and green for pumps, like a haunted trading app. And when she typed about a coin? Her words stuck in people’s brains. If she tweeted “MOON SOON!” about a token, people would throw money at it instantly, no questions asked.
Day 5: The creepy DM
A weird message popped up in her secret Telegram. No name. No picture. Just:
“The Market sees you now. Use it wisely.”
She ignored it. Degens get weird DMs all the time! But then… Cassie noticed something scary. Whatever she shilled HAPPENED. If she joked, “This coin will moon!”—it did. If she warned, “Careful, this might crash!”—it crashed. She wasn’t just an influencer anymore… she was becoming a crypto fortune teller.

Day 7: The market is watching… literally
Cassie figured it out. She wasn’t just invisible to people; she was invisible to the market’s normal rules. She had become pure hype, a ghost inside the crypto machine. But the more she used her power, the more the market… stared back.
The charts glitched when she scrolled. Token logos seemed to blink. Price bars bent into shapes that looked suspiciously like… eyes.

The twist: Payback time
One night, Ethereum’s price chart twisted into a giant, shimmering mouth. A deep voice boomed:
“We gave you the power, Cassie. But every pump has a price.”
The next morning… Banana Puff Coin was GONE. Vanished from every single wallet. No trace. Not even on Etherscan. Gone.
Cassie checked the mirror again. Still invisible. But now… she swore she saw a faint shimmer. Charts. Candlesticks. Watching her.
And somewhere, deep in the blockchain, the market whispered, “Your next sponsor is waiting…”
