The 10K Truth Challenge
Think you have real proof for a major public claim. Bring the evidence.
Submit verifiable source material that clearly confirms or disproves a disputed public claim. Strong entries may qualify for an award based on the published rules, eligibility review, and available funds.
Awards are not automatic. They depend on available funds, rule compliance, and successful verification.
What the 10K Truth Challenge is
The 10K Truth Challenge exists to reward serious evidence, not loud opinions.
Too many public claims get repeated without proof. This challenge flips that around. If a claim is true, it should be possible to support it with strong, checkable evidence. If it is false, weak, manipulated, or missing key proof, that should be visible too.
The point is simple. Do not tell people what to believe. Show what the evidence actually supports.
What this is not
This is not a prize for confidence, popularity, or political usefulness. It is a test of whether the evidence survives scrutiny.
What counts as strong evidence
The strongest entries rely on primary records and a clear chain from source to conclusion.
| Strong | Court orders, sworn filings, official datasets, audited reports, statutes, official transcripts, full context video with timestamps, public records, and direct source documents |
|---|---|
| Helpful | Independent analysis that links back to primary records and uses them accurately |
| Not enough | Unlinked screenshots, anonymous posts, clipped video with no full recording, charts without the dataset and method, opinion pieces with no record behind them |
Quick rule
The cleaner the source and the clearer the reasoning chain, the stronger the submission.
How to enter the 10K Truth Challenge
- Name the exact claim. Write it as one clear sentence. Quote the wording you are testing if possible.
- Link the primary record. Use stable links and include page numbers, timestamps, or sections when relevant.
- Show the chain. Explain how the source confirms or refutes the claim in plain steps.
- Submit through the site form. That keeps entries logged consistently and easier to review.
What helps an entry stand out
- A precise claim instead of a vague allegation
- Primary records instead of commentary about the records
- Full context instead of clipped context
- A clean explanation anyone can follow
- Evidence that stays strong even after scrutiny
