FAQs

Why do you need my support?

This investigation takes time, tools, and expertise. Your support makes it possible to keep working on it independently and share everything I learn publicly.

How will my contribution be used?

Your contribution will fund the research itself, including time, tools, infrastructure, expert input, and everything else needed to investigate the hypothesis properly. As the project grows, it may also help bring more people into the investigation.

Why not raise money from investors?

Because this isn’t a for-profit venture. Investors expect financial returns. This project exists to answer an important question and share the results with everyone. Your support makes that possible without compromising its independence.

Why not apply for grants?

Grants may become part of the funding mix in the future, provided they don’t compromise the project’s independence. For now, your support gives this investigation the freedom to follow the evidence wherever it leads, rather than wherever funding priorities happen to point.

Who’s behind this project?

I’m Miroslav Chodak, and I started this project as a personal investigation that grew into an open, collaborative effort involving researchers, experts, and anyone interested in finding the answer.

Why should I take this hypothesis seriously?

You shouldn’t. At least not without evidence. It’s just a hypothesis. It might be right, or it might be completely wrong. The whole point of this project is to find out which it is by following the evidence wherever it leads.

What if the hypothesis turns out to be wrong?

Then we’ll have learned something important. Finding out that an idea doesn’t work is still progress. Every result, positive or negative, will be published openly so others can learn from it and build on it.

Will the research always remain public?

Yes, unconditionally. The goal is to make the research, methods, progress, and conclusions publicly available whenever possible. Knowledge created through this project should benefit everyone.

Can I help without sending money?

Absolutely. You can share ideas, challenge assumptions, contribute expertise, review research, or simply help more people discover the project. Money is just one way to support the investigation.

Is this a registered non-profit?

Not yet. The project is still in its early stages. The long-term legal structure will be chosen based on what best protects its mission, independence, and public benefit.

Is my contribution tax deductible?

Not at the moment. If that changes in the future, this page will be updated.

If this hypothesis is right, failing to investigate it could be humanity’s greatest mistake.
