Creepypasta: The Programmer Who Sold His Soul for an L2 Blockchain
Eric was a poor but talented programmer. He dreamed of making a name for himself in the world of blockchains and filling his wallet with wealth. His goal was to create the perfect L2 blockchain for scaling Ethereum. But despite all his efforts, he couldn't find the perfect solution.

One night, when Eric was ready to give up, a strange pop-up ad appeared on his screen:

"Want to create the perfect L2 blockchain and become rich? Sell your soul for instant knowledge!"

Tired and desperate, Eric clicked the link. His computer screen glowed with a red light, and before him appeared a demon with burning eyes.

"Do you want to be rich and famous?" the demon asked.
"Yes," Eric replied, trembling with fear.
"In return, I will take your soul," the demon smirked.

Without hesitation, Eric agreed and signed the bloody contract. That very night, he received all the knowledge necessary to create the perfect L2 blockchain. He coded all night long, his fingers flying over the keyboard, and within a few hours, his program was complete. He named it "VortexChain"

Full of hope, Eric uploaded his code to GitHub and sent it to his contacts in the crypto community. But a few days later, he discovered that his program had been stolen and posted under someone else's name. He watched as someone else received recognition and wealth for his work.

Shocked and furious, Eric tried to find the culprit, but it was all in vain. In despair, he heard the demon's whisper once again.

"You sold your soul, and now it is mine," the demon hissed, appearing from the shadows.

Eric realized he had been tricked. The entire plan had been orchestrated by the demon from the beginning. The person who stole his work was merely a puppet in the demon's hands.

The demon grinned and extended his hand. Eric felt cold claws wrap around his soul. His body trembled, then dissolved into darkness, leaving behind only an empty room and dusty computers.
