Website: https://manual.warondisease.org/knowledge/appendix/earth-optimization-prize-protocol.html Abstract: The Earth Optimization Prize @earth-optimization-prize-paper-2025 is a same-pool outcome prize that rewards humanity for increasing global median health and wealth above verified thresholds. If the metrics are not met, depositors divide the realized pool pro rata by deposits; if global median healthy life years and global median real after-tax income improve, the same treasury releases to verified participants proportionally. Registration asks two questions: yes/no on the 1% treaty (the concrete political demand) and how much military vs. clinical trials (with cross-jurisdictional evidence from Optimitron). The mechanism is designed for interoperability: independently operated pools commit to the same two terminal metrics and automatically form a single reward network. This paper specifies the six protocol-level capabilities that interoperability requires: (1) a cross-pool identity layer providing one-person-one-vote guarantees via proof-of-personhood; (2) a permissionless pool registry that makes metric commitments verifiable; (3) VOTE and PRIZE token mechanics with defined minting rules and payout triggers; (4) direct cross-pool claims where any verified voter can claim from any pool; (5) tamper-evident scoreboard aggregation so every front-end displays the same coalition-wide totals; and (6) a terminal metric oracle combining institutional data with decentralized surveys to trigger treasury release. The goal is a protocol simple enough that a second pool can launch without coordinating with the first. Summary: Technical specification for interoperable outcome prize pools structured as a dominant assurance contract. Covers cross-pool proof-of-personhood, a permissionless pool registry, VOTE and PRIZE token mechanics, direct cross-pool claims, tamper-evident scoreboard aggregation, and a terminal metric oracle including decentralized surveys.
