You can find so many tools for using ruby to access the Ethereum Blockchain.
You have for example (like 5chdn♦ said in a comment):
- ethereum-ruby made by DigixGlobal.
- ruby-ethereum made by janx.
- rails-eth-api made by rexmadden.
Also, here you have an Ethereum StackExchange answer which tells about how to connect Geth by IPC on rails.
