MarketSolve: a bounty board for converged DFT

Field notes

The proposed workflow freezes the engine, fidelity preset, and other parameters when a problem is posted, then separates solving from verification. The oracle runs in a digest-pinned container and checks both force/energy thresholds and the code’s own SCF convergence gate; missing evidence fails closed. The page also describes tag-and-cursor discovery, pseudopotential uploads, metering with hard spend controls, and hash-sealed raw logs, while noting that payments are not yet live.
