I’ve always believed that real change starts from the ground up. The problems we see around us—children deprived of education, youth struggling for opportunities, voices going unheard—won’t fix themselves. If we don’t step up, who will?

I still remember the evening that changed something in me. I was in 6th grade, out for dinner with my family, when I saw a boy—probably even younger than me—cleaning tables, picking up leftover food from the ground, and later, washing dishes in the open in chilling winter, all by himself. I just...didn't really knew at that time that this is also something that happens in this world. We were both just kids, but our worlds couldn’t have been more different. I was sitting comfortably with my family, talking about school and dreams, while he was working late into the night, carrying a weight no child should have to bear.

That night, I couldn’t shake the thought—why is life so unfair for some? And more importantly, why do we just accept it as normal? I had always been drawn to debates and discussions about India’s future, but that was the moment I knew—I want to do something real. Not just talk, but act. So that kids like him get the education they deserve, the life they deserve. Because this? This is not the India our freedom fighters fought for.

Today, I’m on a journey to understand problems at their root and work towards real solutions. Whether it’s through policy making, leadership, or on-the-ground activism, I want to play my part in shaping an India where no child is left behind, and every young person has a chance to thrive.

I’m always open to discussions, opportunities, and collaborations that align with this vision. If you share the same fire for policy, governance, youth activism, or leadership, let’s connect and build something meaningful together.

Dmitry Sorokin, [08.11.2025 0:46]
Key areas:
🧠 AI + Mesh Infrastructure: intelligent clusters distributed across nodes worldwide.
🔗 Web6 Interconnect: A new connectivity paradigm where every network, device, and application becomes part of a global mesh network with no single point of failure.
🛰 Quantum Network Layer: Support for quantum computing, cryptography, and secure data transfer.
🧩 Edge & Fog Computing: Localized computing and user-level caching for instant response and autonomy.
🌍 Interplanetary Sync: Synchronize data across devices, planets, and networks via REChain GCL (Global Chain Log).

REChain® Cloud is a cloud without a central authority.
It is not owned by corporations—it is owned by users.

15. Introducing Aurora Dev Lab, a research and development unit within the REChain Network Solutions, LLC ecosystem—a participant and partner of the Skolkovo, Softline, and Skoltech programs.
The laboratory's activities are focused on the development, testing, and integration of domestic solutions in the areas of operating systems, cybersecurity, infrastructure platforms, and artificial intelligence.

We are currently implementing a comprehensive project aimed at integrating three key domestic operating systems—Astra Linux, Aurora, and Katya OS (REChain)—into a single multi-platform ecosystem.
The project's objective is to create a universal secure environment that ensures application compatibility, support for corporate and government scenarios, and unification of management, monitoring, and security tools.

As part of this project, we conduct multi-level testing and comparative studies, including:
assessing the compatibility and resilience of systems when operating in distributed infrastructures;
analysis of performance and energy efficiency on various hardware configurations;
testing mandatory and discretionary access control tools, as well as data protection models;
Compatibility testing with domestic hardware platforms, in particular ICL, Aquarius, IRU, and others.

The project is open-source, scientific, applied, and integrative, aimed at strengthening domestic technological independence and developing ecosystems of compatible domestic solutions.
