About RampageNews

RampageNews is the decentralized verification layer of Rampage, a sovereign blockchain infrastructure designed to operationalize human rights through truth-seeking, information access, and humanitarian aid. Powered by an on-chain Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) oracle—the first of its kind in blockchain—it verifies observable facts using AI-assisted retrieval, multi-source evidence, staking, and community juries. No central authority, no narrative bias—just verifiable truth.

Built on Rampage-1 (Cosmos SDK L1 with $RPM token, privacy pools, IBC interoperability), it's extensible to space for off-world crises (e.g., Mars settlements). Governed by the immutable Rampage Constitution v1.5, emphasizing nonviolence, civilian focus, and legal compliance with humanitarian exceptions (adapted for sanctions/AML risks). Core concept from Ethereum's launch; fully developed in 2025 via AI iteration (Claude, Grok, Gemini, Vincent, NotebookLM).

Rampage is that infrastructure.
