Phase 2 — After the Referendum
After the Earth Optimization Prize referendum proves demand, IABs raise ~$1B to lobby for the 1% Treaty. Your money funds the campaign. Treaty succeeds? 272% projected annual returns as $2.72 billion/year in treaty revenue flows to bondholders. Treaty fails? The money was spent trying. That's how investments work.
IABs are Phase 2. Phase 1 is proving demand via the referendum. If you haven't deposited in the Prize yet, start there — it funds the awareness campaign that makes IABs possible.
The 1% Treaty redirects $27.2 billion/year from military spending to pragmatic clinical trials. That revenue is split by smart contract. No committees. No discretion. Just arithmetic.
Subsidizes patient participation in large-scale pragmatic trials. Real patients, real conditions, real data — not the $41,000/patient Phase III process that takes 8.20 years after safety is already proven. This is the part that actually cures the diseases.
Your grandma bought war bonds that paid 4% and got dead Nazis. These project 272% returns and dead diseases. Grandma would be furious if she hadn't died of cancer.
The NRA gives politicians a letter grade and your senators are more afraid of a bad mark than a mass shooting. Same system, except “guns” is replaced with “not dying from diseases.” Vote yes, get funded. Vote no, watch your opponent get funded.
The 80/10/10 split is hardcoded in the smart contract. No committee gets to argue it into mush later. No lobbying required to lobby.
Your investment funded the lobbying campaign — lobbyists, Super PACs, awareness. If the treaty doesn't pass, the money was spent trying. This is a real investment, not a savings account. The risk is the price of playing for 272% annual returns.
$2.72 billion/year flows to bondholders who funded a $1B campaign. Plus per-capita lifetime income gains of $3.48 million–$47.2 million. Turns out when you stop spending papers on destruction and start spending them on production, things get produced.
You are currently paying $12,600/year per year in political dysfunction tax. The break-even probability on an IAB is 0.0067%. If you believe there's even a 1-in-15,000 chance of the treaty passing, the expected value is positive. The arithmetic is not subtle.
Purpose: Prove that 8 billion humans who prefer not dying aren't the weird ones.
Go to Prize →Purpose: Give papers to loud humans until politicians do useful things. (This is called “lobbying.”)
You are hereIt's a dog chasing its tail, except the dog is capitalism and the tail is made of cured diseases instead of corpses. Bondholders get richer. Politicians who expand get funded. Healthy people earn more and spend more. Nobody has to become a better person. The greed handles it.
IABs fund the lobbying campaign. But lobbying is pointless without proven demand. The referendum comes first. Deposit in the Prize, recruit verified voters, collapse pluralistic ignorance. Then we sell the bonds.
Your $1,000 went to lobbyists, Super PACs, and the awareness campaign. The money was spent trying to pass the treaty.
This is a real investment with real risk — not a savings account.
10% of treaty revenue flows to bondholders proportionally. Plus your personal lifetime income increases by $3.5M–$47.2M — just for being alive when the treaty passes.
That's everyone. Not just bondholders. Everyone.
If you believe there's even a 0.007% chance the treaty passes, projected expected value is positive. All figures are hypothetical projections, not guarantees.
