CYPHERWARS V0.2: The Hero's Journey Update

The underground has evolved. CypherWars v0.2 introduces a two-phase gameplay system that transforms how you play.

What's New

# Two-Phase Gameplay
The game now has two distinct phases:

Debt Journey (Free)
The original 30-day challenge. Clear your debt, survive the underground, and prove you belong. Your run summary is submitted to the debt leaderboard for free.

Hero Journey (210 sats)
After clearing your debt, pay 210 sats via Lightning to unlock the Hero Journey permanently. This is where the real game begins - 90 additional days of extended gameplay (Days 31-120) with new mechanics, factions, the Satoshi storyline, and persistent progression.

Faction System
Three factions now compete for influence in the underground:

FEDHATEME (FHM) - Privacy maximalists with high notoriety. Anonymous legends who believe in radical decentralization.
NACHO PLEBS - The technical underground. Balanced approach with skill-based progression.
THE SUITS - Corporate power players. High sociopathic tendencies and public influence.

Each faction has unique missions and benefits. Your alignment affects how other factions perceive you - rivalries are real and meaningful.

# Reputation & Notoriety
Two new progression systems:

Reputation - Earned through legitimate actions. Unlocks advanced missions. Stable over time.
Notoriety - Earned through riskier actions. Unlocks dangerous opportunities. Decays daily.

Stay active to maintain your notoriety, or watch your legend fade.

# Respawn Mechanics
Death is no longer the end in Hero Journey. When you die or get arrested:

You lose:
- 100% of your hot wallet (confiscated)
- All cargo/inventory (seized)
- 3 in-game days (recovery time)

You keep:
- All cold storage (unconfiscatable - your safety net!)
- All operations
- All upgrades
- Your reputation and notoriety

This creates a roguelite loop where death is a setback, not a reset. Smart players move BTC to cold storage regularly - it's your only protection against total loss.

# Persistent Identity
Your nsec IS your save file. No accounts, no passwords - just your generated identity. Your journey persists across sessions and devices.

# Hero Leaderboard
A new leaderboard tracks hero phase players:
- Total BTC accumulated
- Reputation score
- Notoriety level (decays daily!)
- Days survived
- Faction alignment

# Lightning Payment
210 sats unlocks Hero Journey forever. This is early tester pricing - will increase as the game develops.
