Chapter 139 of "Suddenly, I Am Rich" opens introducing characters: Two coin logos floated in front of Gray. One looked like gold glass with rainbow... Find out more!
Two coin logos floated in front of Gray. One looked like gold glass with rainbow edges. The other was silver, glowing with blue light.
[SOLARBYTE (SBT):
A digital coin used for storing files in the cloud. Some big companies might use it soon, so people are excited about it. The price has been going up fast this week.]
[NEOX (NX):
A new coin that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help programs run automatically. Some big investors have started backing it. It’s trending a lot on social media.]
Gray nodded slowly, understanding it.
"Okay, so they’re both hyped right now..." that was his understanding of it.
→ Put $13,000 into SBT (currently priced at $1.62 per coin)
→ Put $7,000 into NX (priced at $0.38 per coin)
Gray’s eyes widened.
"Wait... really?"
He scratched his head, staring at the spinning coin symbols.
"This feels like a cheat..."
He chuckled.
Still, it wasn’t like the system had let him down before. And this time, it was giving him something clear to follow.
The System was really to OP,
"Alright then," Gray said at last. "Let’s give it a shot."
"Of course," Gray didn’t even hesitate about it.
Who was he to decline that such good offer?
And just like that, the holographic screen in front of him shifted again, ready to help him invest.
Gray leaned forward, eyes narrowing.
"So you’re not gonna do the buying for me?"
"Well, I mean that’s fair," he muttered as he tapped the side of his phone and took a slow breath. "Guess that’s how real investors do it anyway."
"Alright, System. What should I do first?"
"Alright. VaultFox..." Gray repeated as he typed the word into the app store on his phone. The fox logo popped up. It was a sleek, orange icon with glowing eyes.
He hit download and waited a few seconds then tapped open.
Just like what the system said, the interface was smooth and modern. It has a big friendly button labeled: Create Wallet.
"Recovery phrase?" Gray muttered.
"Got it." Gray tapped through the tutorial carefully.
Once the passcode was set and the wallet was created, the app showed his new account.
Wallet: 0.00 USD
It was empty, for now.
Gray nodded.
"Alright, I know this part."
He went through the steps: linking his savings account, confirming the tiny test deposits, and finally, transferring $20,000 into the VaultFox app.
The moment the transfer completed, the wallet’s balance lit up.
"Alright... it feels real now," Gray said, flexing his fingers slightly. His heart thumped out loud. He was getting excited.
Gray followed the steps thoroughly. The interface had glowing tickers and rising arrows.
SOLARBYTE was trending, its chart steadily climbing with a green streak. While NEOX had a smaller graph, but you could see how it was increasing slowly.
"Okay. SBT is $16.22. NX is $5.38..."
Gray entered the amount manually just like what the instruction told him. They were short and direct, so it wasn’t confusing.
$13,000 ÷ $16.2 = 802.47 coins
He double-checked everything twice.
"System, you sure I won’t mess this up?"
Gray sighed and clicked it,
His wallet updated almost instantly.
SOLARBYTE (SBT): 802.47
Gray let out a breath.
"That’s one down."
Now he got to do the other one too.
"Alright, alright." He switched tabs and typed in the next order.
$7,000 ÷ $5.38 = ~1301.115 coins
He hovered for a moment, making sure that everything was correct before tapping
His balance updated again.
NEOX (NX): 1301.115
After a while, a message popped up beneath:
SOLARBYTE (SBT): $13,000
NEOX (NX): $7,000
Total Investment: $20,000
Projected Growth: +80% to +120% (within 7 days)
System Insight Active – 6 Days Remaining
"Whew..." Gray leaned back in his seat, arms hanging limp at his sides. "Okay. I actually did it."
"Thanks."
"Yeah, I’ll keep that in mind," Gray nodded slowly as he stared at the holographic screen in front of him that was flashing his portfolio summary.
"I’m done... finally..." As the system chimed again, Gray let out a deep breath. He nodded and looked at his phone.
"I hope this will succeed."
He couldn’t wait to know how this Crypto investment would go.
