Talking with @NeilHaran About Red Sky game, free speech, space travel and more
12Neil Haran is a forward-thinking entrepreneur and Web3 visionary, best known as the founder and CEO of Rep.Run, an innovative blockchain-based social platform focused on self-sovereign identity, context-based digital communities, and empowering free speech in the digital realm.
Neil leads the development of Rep Social, a decentralized social network built entirely on-chain. The platform is designed to tackle key problems in traditional social media—such as bot spam, scams, and manipulated narratives—through identity verification, gamification, and secure payments. Users can engage across the web with contextually grounded communities; LinkedIn logins grant automatic verification with a checkmark, while other signups involve a liveness face-check process.
In this interview I have a very interesting conversation with Neil about a wide range of topics including interplanetary travel, free speech, his new game and more.
Neil Haran is the visionary founder and CEO of Rep.Run, a pioneering blockchain‑native social platform and parent of Rep Social.

With a strong background in intuitive UX and Web3 architecture, Neil has spoken widely at platforms like Blockchain Interviews and Edge of Gala to share his vision for transparent, secure, and inclusive digital social infrastructure.
