Every row carries its own source, source_id, source_url, and as_of — a per-fact attribution chain back to the original record. The dataset itself was produced by this pipeline:

cite — born citeable
This dataset ships the same feed402/0.2 envelope the rest of bucket.foundation speaks. Reading and citing it costs nothing; the cite block is passive, forward-looking license metadata describing what a downstream publisher would owe to re-publish it in a paid work.

doi — be cited forever (seam)
For permanent, scholarly-citeable identity, a published dataset gets a real DOI via Zenodo — the content-addressed parquet is deposited and the DOI is recorded alongside its feed402/0.2 cite-forever block. Reading and citing stay free; citation fees flow to the dataset’s authors over feed402/x402. There is no blockchain, no Story Protocol, no IP-NFT — just a DOI and the open cite-forever envelope. No wallet is ever required to read, download, or cite.
