The pilot project was launched in early 2031. The first location was a repurposed data center outside Reykjavik, Iceland. The "30701" protocol was established to separate casual users from serious patrons. The "min" (Minimalist Interior Network) standard dictated that rooms could not contain any corporate branding, wall art, televisions, or mini-bars. Instead, they featured soundproofed concrete walls, adjustable circadian lighting, a single high-speed fiber port, and a biometric safe.
