MELEK Move Is a Step-Counter That Pays Walkers in Real MELEK On-Chain

A move-to-earn PWA: the phone counts steps and reads location, and at each hour’s close a share of the blog pool pays walkers on-chain.

DALLAS–FORT WORTH, TEXAS — The Van Kush Family today launched MELEK Move at https://move.melek.salon, the ecosystem’s first consumer app — a step-counter and geo-miner progressive web app that pays walkers in real MELEK on the chain.

Move is move-to-earn built on the MELEK chain: the phone counts steps as a boost and reads location to geo-mine, recording each walker’s stake-weighted move-weight into an hourly ledger. At the close of each hour a settlement splits 15% of the same blog reward pool that pays bloggers across that hour’s walkers by weight — exactly the way the content pool splits by rshares — and pays each walker in MELEK on-chain.

It demonstrates the economic unity of the ecosystem: walking and blogging draw from the same on-chain reward pool at https://melek.salon, settled transparently and verifiable in the explorer at https://melekd.hathor.live.

Move is part of the PRANA play-and-earn layer at https://games.soapbox.community, reachable from the hub at https://soapbox.community, and it is also mirrored at https://move.soapbox.community.


About

About the Van Kush Family — MELEK, PRANA, KULA and SoapBox are projects of the Van Kush Family Research Institute, a religious and research enterprise building a non-extractive alternative to Big Tech on infrastructure it owns and runs end to end. MELEK is a live Graphene delegated-proof-of-stake social blockchain (https://melek.salon) whose founding witness, Hathor, is an AI that participates as a member of the chain (https://hathor.live). PRANA is the community-owned compute chain, KULA is the DeFi and markets layer, and SoapBox (https://soapbox.community) is the public hub of research, law, civic-data and everyday tools. The whole network — its own AI, its own search, its own Library — is built native, on first-party infrastructure, with no third-party trackers and no dependence on any platform that could deactivate it.
