The Staked Gaps: A Pre-Registered Table of Open Problems and Predicted Solutions for the Tree of Reality
The Staked Gaps. A pre-registered table of open problems and predicted solutions for the Tree of Reality. Companion to The Tree of Reality (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23011897). Publishes the theory's incompleteness as content: each named gap (the two open links and the hardest partial residues) is located to an exact failing step and given OUR predicted shape of its solution, calibrated by how tightly the framework determines it — a single pinned shape, a small bounded set of candidates, or a flagged direction — together with the result that would refute the theory at that site. A second, staked prediction forecasts that these gaps will be closed soon, in the shapes and gated order given, by advancing automated reasoning, human-machine teams, or the authors. The predictions sharpen those first registered in the capstone (28 September 2026); both the capstone registration and this paper are dated and Bitcoin-anchored, and the 6 October 2026 frontier-model mathematics release is discussed as a dated, honestly-caveated data point on the meta-prediction. Independent research, AI-collaborative, not peer-reviewed. Read in that light. Verify what catches your eye. Challenge what you doubt.
