Satoshi Evidence Ledger
Trace the record. Inspect the revision. Reproduce the route.
A public research dataset for exploring how Satoshi-attributed statements, source revisions and archive origins connect. Built for historical research, provenance tooling and evidence-aware graph experiments.

- Open the atlas and choose Follow the first claim.
- Click a node to inspect its structural neighbors, or toggle shared bundles to compare connection types.
- Export a JSON route receipt. Every hop names its record, file, line and pinned revision.
The atlas shows structure. It uses pseudonymous node keys and contains no claim text. Shared bundles and graph proximity are not evidence of identity, causality or truth. Historical source records and attribution-only claims remain in the versioned snapshots below.
Three useful starting questions
- Which source revision and origin are linked to an attributed statement?
- Which captures share an origin, and therefore cannot count as independent evidence?
- Can another reader reconstruct a route from the same pinned files?
The public core contains 19 source revisions, 24 attributed claims and 17 origins. Wave 4 models them with 152 nodes, 62 typed edges and 43 hyperedges. This is a deliberately bounded research cohort, not a complete Satoshi archive.
Load a pinned structural table
Install huggingface_hub, then:
import hashlib, json
from pathlib import Path
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
path = hf_hub_download(
repo_id="ouroboroscollective/satoshi-evidence-ledger",
repo_type="dataset",
filename="data/wave4_structural_nodes.jsonl",
revision="cb4870aad8b63b6058bfbfcc457b7f47c6a328b4",
)
raw = Path(path).read_bytes()
assert hashlib.sha256(raw).hexdigest() == (
"b46a8b070b89140729052addd137c08644e7b666d849133715c72040b3dbb889"
)
nodes = [json.loads(line) for line in raw.splitlines() if line.strip()]
print(len(nodes)) # 152
Access requirements, if presented by the Hub, still apply. Dataset download counts are not unique visitor counts.

Deutsch: Der Atlas macht Verbindungen erkundbar. Quelle, Revision und Prüfumfang bleiben sichtbar. Eine Verbindung im Graphen ist für sich allein kein Beweis einer historischen Behauptung.
Canonical ownership
Notion remains the human-curated canonical truth layer. This Hugging Face dataset is a machine-readable, versioned projection and snapshot ledger. Exported records are append-only by revision; a later revision does not silently overwrite historical evidence.
First public release
Release: PUBLIC-2026-10-01-v1
Included snapshots: Wave 1 through Wave 4
Release record: releases/PUBLIC-2026-10-01-v1.json
The release gate verified parseability, manifest SHA-256 integrity, absence of credentials, publication scope, schema contracts, and the Wave 4 validation report.
| Snapshot | Scope | Validated records |
|---|---|---|
| SATOSHI-CORE-2026-10-01-WAVE1 | Source revisions | 19 sources |
| SATOSHI-CLAIMS-2026-10-01-WAVE2 | Attributed-statement claims | 24 claims; 24 evidence links |
| SATOSHI-GRAPH-2026-10-01-WAVE3 | Origins and dependencies | 17 origins; 19 dependencies |
| SATOSHI-HYPERGRAPH-2026-10-01-WAVE4 | Typed multigraph and n-ary hypergraph | 152 nodes; 62 typed edges; 43 hyperedges |
Wave 4 Structural Explorer
The Dataset Viewer exposes three privacy-safe structural configurations:
wave4_structural_nodes— 152 pseudonymous nodes and node types.wave4_structural_edges— 62 typed edges, endpoints, and roles.wave4_structural_hyperedges— 43 n-ary hyperedges with typed participant roles.
The explorer deliberately excludes claim text, source text, historical email addresses, source/archive URLs, content hashes, canonical ledger identifiers, credentials, and private URLs. Its pseudonymous keys are navigation handles only; they cannot independently establish truth, attribution, or provenance. The binding to the immutable Wave 4 snapshot is recorded in views/WAVE4-STRUCTURAL-EXPLORER-2026-10-01/manifest.json.
Epistemic and provenance semantics
SUPPORTSmeans that a source revision supports attribution of a historical statement to the historical account/sender. It does not establish the proposition as world-truth.- Mirrors, archive captures, reposts, and derived summaries sharing an origin are collapsed for independence analysis.
- Revisions, superseded records, and contradictions are preserved rather than deleted.
- Centrality metrics are navigation signals only; they are never truth scores.
- Wave 4 traversal is bounded: default depth 8, hard ceiling 16. Multi-hop results must return their ordered provenance path.
Public-release scope and rights
This dataset publishes metadata, hashes, provenance links, graph structure, short research annotations, and bounded historical-statement claims. It does not contain a raw third-party corpus or captured page bodies, and credentials or tokens must never be included. Some methodological records link to canonical Notion pages; a reference does not grant access to those pages.
The repository metadata uses license: other: this release does not grant rights in third-party material referenced by source URLs. Re-users are responsible for respecting the terms of original sources and archives.
Reproducibility
Every snapshot records its parent, run identity, artifact hashes, counts, gate status, and semantic change summary. See validation/CONTRACT.md, schemas/, views/, and releases/.
Wave 4 adds a graph-run schema at schemas/graph_research_run.schema.json; its validation report remains part of the immutable snapshot.
