GaiaLab proof-of-anteriority anchor — research investigation Merkle root d16e2885aeb1… (56 investigations)

Immutable record of a batch of GaiaLab Research Orchestrator investigation snapshots (hypothesis-tournament results from gaialab_investigate_question). The Merkle root d16e2885aeb17b0fc1de905122017450b1acd10253a92bf181c12e5d03b67ef3 commits 56 research-investigation leaves. The root is submitted to the Bitcoin blockchain via OpenTimestamps (block confirmation pending; the attached .ots proof upgrades to a full Bitcoin attestation once a block includes it), and this Zenodo deposit provides an immediate, citable third-party timestamp. Only one-way digests are published — no algorithm, private data, or investigation content. Independent verification: gailabai.com/verify. Proves anteriority (the investigation snapshot existed by this date and was not backdated), not correctness of its conclusions.
