A new day started.Early morning a notification hit Raj's phone at 7:14 a.m., just as he was brushing chalk off his palms after a warm-up grip session.
It was from Ghostline's official account.
Subject:
RC-V1 SELECTED FOR FEATURED GEAR CIRCLE (OPEN SHOWCASE)
Underneath, a clean caption:
"Designed from silence. Built with memory. RC-V1 enters Ghostline's open round as one of the most emotionally resonant gloves tested this season."
It wasn't flashy.But it was public.And that changed everything.
By 10:00 a.m., comments started piling up on the test portal and Ghostline's private feedback platform.
"This looks oddly familiar."
"I've seen this curve before."
"That inside wrist-lock,is that a tweak or a trace?"
"Yo, is this a spin-off of EvoGrip's old Axis Loop?"
At first, Raj didn't care.
Trolls happened.
But by noon, a formal post appeared ,shared over 120 times before it was taken down.
From a mid-tier glove startup called Gravex Gear.
Their caption was simple.
