DISCLAIMER: The following represents the current thinking of the Sovereign Sky, BEOS and RUON teams and is subject to change without notice. Nothing should be interpreted as a statement of fact or promise to do anything. It is released here for community discussion purposes only.

One of the most exciting things about Sovereign Sky's space-based BEOS blockchain platform is the new applications it will host. In this article we will provide a sneak preview of RUON, a new comprehensive social media network and ecosystem app.

Why RUON is the Social Media Ecosystem for the Crypto Generation

After the launch of the internet over 30 years ago, today's digital citizens saw many revolutions in cyberspace. First with academic and recreational ideas and then for business, and with this came the rise of the dominant social media and service platforms that exist today such as Facebook, Instagram, Amazon and Netflix. We have not yet seen the end of history - the evolution and revolution continues - introducing RUON.

Currently, blockchain technology is at a similar stage to the advent of the internet, with its potential remaining largely unrealized. Just like the internet, blockchain promises not only innovative applications and technology, but a whole new ecosystem - a thrilling ecosystem - for the crypto generation.

RUON, was launched by Sovereign Sky creator Timothy E. Burke at the World Crypto Con, Vegas in October 2018. It was designed to deliver every service and product that the crypto generation needs, not only today, but built with tomorrow in mind. Timothy is a well-established film producer and creator of the Planet X franchise being co-directed with Marvel's Jeff Hadderstad of IronMan, Doctor Strange, and Captain Marvel fame.

Taking inspiration from Instagram, Facebook, WeChat and Bitcoin, RUON is a Social, Business and Chat application hosted on the BEOS hybrid space-based blockchain by Sovereign Sky, allowing all coins and Dapps across the EOS, Bitcoin, Stellar, Ethereum and Sovereign blockchains to talk to each other. Add to this, a philanthropic element of RUON, Sovereign Sky (and its coin, SovereignCoin) is the Planet's first spaced-based blockchain powering a new "Free World Currency" which will provide and protect our children, save and preserve our wildlife and aim to eradicate global poverty by 2032.

Sovereign Sky - Space Based Blockchain Platform

On December 3rd, 2018, SpaceQuest, the satellite developer and strategic partner, launched two of its micro-satellites on Spaceflights' SSO-A Smallsat Express from Vandenberg Air Force Base in the United States. These satellites, launched on Space X's falcon 9 are named BRIO and THEA, and were built and are owned by SpaceQuest of Virginia, the leading US government-level satellite solutions, components, and space data provider with decades of successful flight heritage. One of them will become the"BEOSnick 1" satellite hosting the first BEOS blockchain node in space on the Sovereign Sky network. RUON will be hosted on the Sovereign Sky BEOS network which is envisioned to grow to cover the earth with space to ground internet and blockchain smart contract service.

RUON - Post, Stream, Earn & Spend.

RUON, the new Social, Business and Chat app built on the blockchain will be useful in every aspect of our living and working life, and that's no exaggeration.

What makes RUON so revolutionary?

PERSONAL LIFE

Take the social media aspect of the application. Instead of the old-fashioned way of 'mining' tokens, with RUON users can earn tokens by 'liking' other users' web posts, posting videos, pictures and comments. There has never been a social network to allow every single individual, the opportunity to earn the more you contribute to its network. This as a huge driving factor in people adopting blockchain technology and using it in their everyday lives.

FOR BUSINESS

RUON has been carefully designed to become the Instagram of business apps, creating an innovative environment for businesses to globally connect to their customers, maximize sales, attract new users and provide dedicated stores (used and promoted by their own customers), with support from customer group chats. It's this increased level in connection that the RUON team is so excited about, and it's only a matter of time until businesses reap these significant benefits.

FOR INVESTMENT

RUON provides users a digital wallet powered by Coinbase, the world's most popular digital wallet and a connected cryptocurrency smart card to your digital wallet. Similar to eBay, Craigslist and Amazon, RUON offers a marketplace for anyone wanting to buy, sell or trade items via bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Additionally, RUON enables blockchain investors to join forces to buy and sell companies, invest in promising blockchain companies, buy and sell art and real estate, and offer and seek many more investment and financial opportunities in cryptocurrency.

These benefits are only scratching the surface as there are many more features and exciting capabilities that haven't been mentioned (think messaging as well as AI shopping, the list goes on!). This is the dawn of a new social era, enabling users to post, earn and spend all in one place, leading the way with RUON. RUON has currently raised more than $1.3m in private investment, which goes to show the crytpo generation is getting ready for the future.

@stan, Sounds Revolutionary and in my opinion it can prove biggest collaborative idea because it's reflecting as it's connecting many platforms too. Let's hope for the exciting times and journey. Stay blessed.

Just so I don’t butcher anything.. how is RUON to be properly pronounced?

Brand is an issue. Confusing instead of catchy and gives the impression of 'ruin'. Team should think about this

I was pronouncing it ruin also.. however many great things can be found inside of ancient ruins. So it’s all about the context of the word ruin. It is not always a negative term.

I just want to know if I’m pronouncing it correctly or not.

Which means at best the brand is something old and crumbling and at worst it is... well https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ruin

I think anyone with a half decent grasp of the English language will at least know the definition of 'ruin' - very clever of you to share the link - but at best pointless! I would suggest you re- read the post and do some research. It doesn't suggest an old and crumbling concept anywhere in the text ..... unless you could elaborate?

RUON Co-founder here:- We have taken on this advice and have changed name to RUon on all Media....So you grasp the" R as in 'are' U as in 'you' and ON as in 'on' better ". Thanks for the headsup.

This is just the kind of clarity I was looking for. Thanks for taking the time to reply & fill me in on the pronunciation.
Either way I will be looking forward to seeing how this project develops 🤝

Disagree, R as in 'are' U as in 'you' and ON as in 'on' quite simple and catchy in my opinion. Where you get 'ruin' from I have no idea!😃

@stan, Kindly want to know, when we can expect the Application?

Have a great time ahead and stay blessed.
