Dataset hosting

Compute grants
GPU credits for researchers who reproduce results and run blinded evaluations on the hidden test sets — enabling independent trust-tier verification.
Red-team bounties
Bounties paid to community members who find and report fabricated results, dataset contamination, or physics-violating reconstructions.
Infrastructure
Server costs, domain registration, SSL certificates, and on-chain indexer infrastructure that keeps the public explorer running 24/7.

Note: Donations are completely separate from the PWM token economy. You do not need to hold or purchase any PWM tokens to use the platform, and token purchases do not substitute for tax-deductible charitable giving. The nonprofit site and all benchmark data remain 100% free to access regardless of contribution level.
