In the early hours, the escape began amidst thick smoke and flames. Computer towers, cash, and undestroyed scam scripts were stuffed into suitcases. Deep in the jungle, the illegal "camp" descended into chaos, with scam leaders showing only two expressions: anger and panic.

What broke their defenses was not ground troops or police, but precise strikes from the air—the targets were not the personnel themselves, but fiber optic cables underground in the camp, satellite antennas on rooftops, and relay stations in the woods.

"Completely destroyed! Even the SIM cards turned to ash!" one leader shouted into the phone. The true lifeline of this black empire was not some advanced hacking technique. In essence, it was the most basic, seemingly indestructible yet actually fragile centralized communication infrastructure. Destroy a few antennas and servers, and the entire criminal network instantly becomes an island. All value is wiped out.

This absurd yet real scene is like a metaphor piercing into modern society: any system relying on a single central node—whether a criminal network or our everyday trusted financial systems—harbors a huge "shutdown button" within.

This prompted my reflection. In the digital finance realm, does the value network we build also have such single points of failure? Are the banks, payment institutions, and even some stablecoin issuers we trust fundamentally like those rooftop antennas—appearing solid, but once the central node is compromised, the entire system could collapse?
