zeekayandHanzo Dev dced1dcfb9 Publish under the org, not a person
Bylines, paper authorship, correspondence addresses and the founder blurb under
each post named an individual. They name the organisation that published the
work instead: the brand on posts and pages, the research byline on papers, and
research@ in place of a personal address. Both are what these repositories
already used elsewhere — nothing new was coined.

Co-authors are untouched. Where a paper named someone else alongside, they stay
named; only the one byline changed. Bibliography entries, running heads,
PDF metadata and affiliations move with it, so a citation still resolves to
whoever the cited paper names.

Sample and fixture data uses the placeholder name these tests already use
elsewhere, so no assertion changed meaning.

\begin{abstract}
We present the \textit{Experience Ledger}, a decentralized infrastructure for semantic optimization of Large Language Models (\LLM{}s) that replaces centralized fine-tuning with community-driven knowledge curation. Unlike traditional approaches that update model parameters—an opaque, expensive, and centralized process—our system maintains a content-addressable library of semantic advantages: natural language insights extracted via introspection that guide model behavior through context injection. The Experience Ledger combines cryptographic verification (Merkle trees), decentralized storage (\IPFS{}/Arweave), and \DAO{}-based governance to enable transparent, auditable, and democratic model evolution. We demonstrate that semantic optimization achieves comparable or superior performance to parameter fine-tuning at 0.2\% of the cost while enabling cross-domain transfer, interpretability, and Byzantine-robust aggregation. This paradigm shift—from implicit weight updates to explicit wisdom commons—establishes a foundation for truly decentralized artificial intelligence.
