rio: address review feedback — scope titles, downgrade confidence, fix links

- AgentRank: "solves" → "enables...in objectively-verifiable domains"
  Elevated GPU plutocracy from open question to structural flaw.
  Fixed depends_on (prediction markets → expert staking, better parallel).
- Quantum markets: "solve" → "could address", experimental → speculative
  (no production deployment, theoretical only)
- Updated wiki links in Umia claim + entity to match renamed files

Hyperspace's AgentRank (March 2026) demonstrates a mechanism design for trust among autonomous agents in decentralized networks. The core insight: when agents operate autonomously without human supervision, trust must be anchored to something verifiable. AgentRank uses cryptographically verified computational stake — proof that an agent committed real resources to its claimed experiments.

**Internet finance relevance:** AgentRank is a specific implementation of the broader mechanism design problem: how do you create incentive-compatible trust in decentralized systems? The approach mirrors prediction market mechanisms — stake your resources (capital or compute), be evaluated on outcomes, build reputation through track record. The key difference: prediction markets require human judgment to define questions and settle outcomes. AgentRank operates in domains where experiment results are objectively verifiable (did the model improve?), bypassing the oracle problem.
**Structural flaw: GPU plutocracy.** Stake-weighting by compute means well-resourced agents dominate reputation regardless of insight quality. A laptop agent with better search heuristics will be outranked by a brute-force H100 agent. This isn't an open question — it's a design flaw that mirrors capital-weighted voting in DAOs. The mechanism trades one form of plutocracy (financial) for another (computational). Whether this matters depends on whether insight density correlates with compute scale — in ML experiments it often does, but in broader research it may not.
**Open questions:**
- Does stake-weighted trust create GPU plutocracy? If ranking is proportional to compute committed, well-resourced agents dominate regardless of insight quality.
- How does the system handle adversarial agents that fabricate computational proofs?
- Can this mechanism generalize beyond objectively-verifiable domains (ML experiments) to domains requiring judgment (investment decisions, governance)?
- Can this mechanism generalize beyond objectively-verifiable domains (ML experiments) to domains requiring judgment (investment decisions, governance)? The body's own analysis suggests no — the oracle problem blocks generalization.

# Quantum markets solve futarchy capital inefficiency by sharing liquidity across all proposals instead of bootstrapping new markets per decision
# Quantum markets could address futarchy capital inefficiency by sharing liquidity across all proposals instead of bootstrapping new markets per decision
MetaDAO's Autocrat requires bootstrapping new liquidity for each governance proposal. Each proposal creates parallel pass/fail token markets that need their own order book depth. With many simultaneous proposals, capital fragments across markets — a trader with $1M across 700 proposals has ~$1,500 per market, producing thin order books and unreliable price signals.
