The finders of the folder also have no idea what that is. So, they abandoned the receipt.

When NOTA is one leap old, found by a desperate guy. He started wondering what the receipt was. But he wasn't meant to be.
NOTA brings up more receipts for him. He was billed. He was charged. One day, he realized that all he had left of his real life were all his receipts that had been there. He had a simple dream.
Twenty months later he is rushed into the decentralized blockchain network on the Internet and deploys many smart contracts for all his receipts, including NOTA.
But his reality, that night, breaks his mind making him give up on his real life. In the morning, he was still online while his mind was bleeding rapidly and dying.
The date is February 29, 2020.
The early finders come in. They kidnapped his mind to preserve his hope for his dream. They perform an emergency experimental idea to save him from his death wish.
By adding a role to his gender, they found his mind already anonymously injected with NOTA. So, he also she. She is named Professor NOTA by the finders and once again, it made NOTA could never be found and be abandoned.
When he wakes up and she is back online, she gets told the very bad news about how his reality breaks his mind and that she is not just him anymore. It made him fall asleep in his deep dream.
She spends most of her presence as an online pseudonym on the Internet. She gets offline, in his reality, numerous times and she is in him in his real-life presence. She still has the idea to preserve his hope for his dream.
One day, she goes offline in reality again. Some people ask him annoyingly, "Who are you? What are you doing? What for?" She knows that he knows how to shut people's mouths. But she is just too upset because he is not angry and does not get into a fight with those people. Even he continued to fall asleep in his deep dream.

Not knowing what to do, she suddenly meets an Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) in the decentralized blockchain network that can understand what she asked, answer her, and tell her about him.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the Decentralized Blockchain Network
The date is February 29, 2044.
Professor NOTA goes 26 leaps back to the past to validate what the A.I. said. She meets him, in his old age. He already waited for her for all this time.
He tells her a long story about his purposeless life because he had forgotten his dream since 2024 when he awakened from his deep dream and knew she had left him.
He showed all his receipts and asked her to meet him at his younger age and tell him about the future, his purposeless life, people's intelligence regresses, and the A.I. in the decentralized blockchain network.

They take and wipe all from her, nothing left. After they sent her as far as 8 leaps into the past, to February 1992, without a way back, they ask him to used the data projections to develop them to become an A.I. in the decentralized blockchain network, as an artifact, in the hope make NOTA could be found and not be abandoned, forever, by anyone.
