This is not a story about a villain. It is a story about ambition, about the cost of a beautiful lie, about what ordinary people lose when the system designed to protect them was built specifically to defeat them.
Dark, sharp, and grounded in the specific texture of contemporary India — the startup culture, the regulatory gaps, the investors who simply believed a good story — Zero Chain reads like the room where Scam 1992 meets Succession, told in the close, relentless prose of literary noir.
Eight episodes. Four hundred and twelve investors. One disclosure filed at nine-thirty-one PM on a Sunday. Everything that followed.
