-This dataset contains a minimal, verifiable evidence pack demonstrating:
+# DSSE 1M — Verifiable Trust Drift Proof
 
-- Streaming analysis of 1,000,000 structured records
-- Bounded-memory snapshot generation (DSSE)
-- Evidence-driven trust change expressed as `trust_drift.v1`
-- Cryptographic hashes anchoring all artifacts
+This repository is the **primary public evidence** of the Crovia project.
+
+It demonstrates that a **measurable trust drift signal** can be observed:
+
+- between two temporal states of a dataset  
+- with **no declared dataset change**
+- using a reproducible, auditable pipeline
+- on commodity hardware
+- at the scale of **1 million records**
+
+No interpretation is provided.  
+No attribution is claimed.  
+This repository contains **evidence only**.
+
+---
 
 ## What this is
-This is **not** a benchmark.
-This is **not** a model.
-This is an **audit artifact**.
 
-It shows that large-scale training inputs can be:
-- processed in streaming mode
-- summarized into stable snapshots
-- compared across periods
-- and evaluated with signed trust drift
+This dataset is a **cryptographically anchored evidence package** produced by Crovia.
+
+It shows that:
+
+- trust-related structural properties of a dataset
+- can drift over time
+- even when no official change is declared
+- and that such drift can be **measured, reproduced, and verified**
+
+The output is a signal — not a conclusion.
+
+---
+
+## What this is NOT
+
+- ❌ Not a benchmark  
+- ❌ Not a model evaluation  
+- ❌ Not a claim against any dataset or organization  
+- ❌ Not a legal or ethical judgment  
+
+Crovia does **not** interpret the signal.  
+Crovia only makes it verifiable.
+
+---
+
+## Contents (root)
+
+- `START_HERE.md`  
+  → minimal orientation for verification
+
+- `EVIDENCE.ndjson`  
+  → full machine-readable evidence trace
+
+- `HASHES.txt`  
+  → cryptographic anchors
+
+- `SNAPSHOT_LATEST.json`  
+  → latest observed state (with evidence attached)
+
+- `synth_1M_drift.ndjson`  
+  → aggregated drift signal (1M scale)
+
+---
+
+## Reproducibility
+
+All artifacts in this repository are:
+
+- deterministic
+- hash-linked
+- reproducible from inputs
+- inspectable without proprietary tooling
+
+If the signal is wrong, it can be disproven.  
+That is the point.

+
+## Position in the Crovia ecosystem
+
+This repository is the **reference proof**.
 
-## What is included
-- `DSSE_1M_HASHES.txt` — SHA256 anchors for all artifacts
-- `synth_1M_drift.ndjson` — signed trust drift record
+Other Crovia datasets (LAION examples, CEP capsules, conceptual datasets)
+exist to illustrate, explore, or contextualize the system —  
+**not** to replace this evidence.
 
-## What is intentionally not included
-- Raw datasets
-- Proprietary processing logic
-- Model internals
+---
 
-This proof is meant for independent inspection and discussion.
+## One rule
 
-No claims are made.
-Only artifacts are provided.
+> If a system affects trust,  
+> there must be evidence.  
+> And that evidence must be auditable.
