It had barely been a day since Nova Technologies set off a storm with the announcement of their future product.
But Nova Technologies showed no intention of letting the world breathe, as hours ago, they'd made another post, this one promising what they called Lucid Platform's Monthly Transparency Report.
According to the announcement, the report would highlight the platform's performance over the past month, including data like platform adoption metrics, engagement and usage statistics, gaming ecosystem performance, creator economy overview, and revenue breakdowns.
The whole world went into a frenzy. Social media exploded with speculation. Financial analysts scrambled to prepare their predictions. Tech journalists published think pieces about what the numbers might reveal. Gaming communities debated endlessly about which titles would dominate the metrics.
Everyone was anxiously waiting. As they waited, they speculated wildly about what the numbers would look like. Would Nova Technologies drop exact figures or just give them averages? Would they be transparent about revenue, or keep those cards close to their chest?
Honestly, most people didn't care either way. Any data would be better than the complete blackout they'd been operating under.
The experts could see what an explosive first month Lucid had experienced. This wasn't just because of how revolutionary the device itself was, but also because of the continuous improvements Nova Technologies had made to the ecosystem.
The biggest game-changer had been LucidNet.
The platform's creation gave the entire Lucid ecosystem room to grow exponentially. Suddenly, Lucid wasn't just a gaming device—it was a complete digital universe with its own social infrastructure. People could watch streams in a more convenient way, interact with creators, build communities, and participate in an economy that existed entirely within the platform.
Due to the lack of public data, no one knew exactly how many users LucidNet had accumulated. But experts were making educated guesses, with most estimates landing somewhere between 150 and 200 million users. Those were staggering numbers for a platform barely a month old.
What made it even more interesting was the clear divide between ordinary users and the 1,000 Lucid device owners.
Those thousand users were treated like royalty on the platform, flaunting their verified badges with pride. Even their most basic posts received more engagement than the highest-followed ordinary users could dream of.
The community were calling them Digital Aristocrats.
It was a fitting name. They existed in a tier above everyone else, untouchable and enviable. Their streams pulled millions of viewers.
But all that aside, everyone was curious about one thing: what numbers would Nova Technologies actually reveal?
They didn't have to wait long as the stipulated time for the report to be posted arrived, and the 669M followers of Nova Technologies account received a notification.

The reaction was instant and explosive.
Within sixty seconds, comments flooded the post. Within five minutes, the report had been shared over two million times across social media platforms. Within ten minutes, every major news outlet had published breaking news alerts.
The numbers were insane.
701 million LucidNet users. That alone would have been headline-worthy. But it was just the beginning.
689 million daily active users meant that nearly everyone who signed up actually used the platform every single day. That kind of retention was unheard of in the tech industry. Facebook, Instagram, TikTok—none of them came close to that percentage.
Eight hours average session length per user. Eight hours. People were spending a third of their day on LucidNet, and that was just the average. Some users were clearly living inside the platform.
But the real shock came from the revenue numbers. $130 million in net revenue. In one month. From a thousand devices.
Financial analysts stared at their screens in disbelief. They ran the calculations again and again, certain they'd made an error. But the math checked out.
If Nova Technologies maintained this trajectory and scaled to even 100,000 devices, they'd be looking at over $13 billion in monthly revenue.
Annually, that would put them at over $150 billion, making them one of the most profitable companies in human history within their first year of operation.
And they were a private company, with no shareholders, quarterly earnings calls or pressure to maximize short-term profits at the expense of long-term vision.
The creator economy numbers triggered a different kind of chaos.
Ten creators had earned between $5.5 and $11.2 million in a single month. The top earner, whose identity remained anonymous, had pulled in what the report described as "high seven-figure range"—which likely meant somewhere between $8 and $11 million.
That was more than most professional athletes earned. More than A-list actors made per film. More than bestselling authors earned from their books.
And these creators had achieved it in thirty days, sitting in their homes, playing games.
The bottom 50% of creators—500 people—had each earned between $4,000 and $45,000.
Even at the low end, that was livable income in many parts of the world. At the high end, it was upper-middle-class salary for a month's work.
Every single one of the thousand Lucid owners was making money. Not pocket change or hobby income, but real, life-changing amounts.
Social media erupted with reactions. YouTuba creators posted emergency videos analyzing the report. Twitch streamers interrupted their broadcasts to discuss the numbers. Twit became unusable as millions of users shared their thoughts simultaneously.
"$8.9M IN A MONTH??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME???"
"701 MILLION USERS AND ONLY 1000 DEVICES. THIS IS INSANE."
"Nova Technologies just made $130M in their first month and they're acting like it's casual."
"The bottom-tier creators are making more than my annual salary. I'm in the wrong industry."
"Is this the new OF?"
"How is this sustainable? How is ANY of this sustainable?"
That last question echoed across forums and comment sections everywhere. How could Nova Technologies possibly maintain this level of growth?
How could they scale production while keeping the ecosystem balanced? What happened when millions of people owned Lucid devices instead of just thousands?
Financial experts appeared on news channels, their expressions grave as they tried to explain the implications. Tech industry veterans gave interviews, struggling to find historical comparisons.
Economists published op-eds warning about the potential disruption to traditional entertainment and social media industries.
Because if Nova Technologies continued on this trajectory, they wouldn't just be competing with gaming companies or social media platforms. They'd be obsoleting them entirely.
Why watch Netflex when you could experience stories in fully immersive worlds? Why scroll through Instar when you could interact with communities in virtual spaces that felt more real than reality? Why play console games when Lucid offered experiences that made traditional gaming look primitive?
The report had revealed something terrifying to the established tech giants: Nova Technologies wasn't playing in the same league. They weren't even playing the same sport.
They'd created an entirely new category, and they dominated it completely.
As the night wore on and the initial shock began to fade, one thing became clear to everyone reading the numbers:
The world was about to change in ways no one could fully predict.
And Nova Technologies was leading that change, one impossible achievement at a time.
