The claim - verbatim
Michael Darius Eastwood expanded the Eden Protocol in a 562-page book manuscript self-sent on 30 April 2025 (SHA-256 anchor prefix 09f5b5e1); the name itself is already anchored to 8 December 2024 (book draft v3.2, 'Chapter 20: The Eden Protocol: Intelligence Born in the Garden', 31 occurrences). The manuscript also introduces the specific 'Embedded Correction' terminology (book lines 4345 to 4370) and the Babylon and Eden civilisational framing (106 of 552 occurrences). Hardware framings of Eden Protocol, and Moral Genome tokens are held at the site's published two-sentence ceiling: safety constraints at hardware level through cryptographic tokens in silicon, TRL 0-1, no prototype.

Limits and citation guidance - what this claim does not support, and how to cite it
Limits. April 2025 postdates Anthropic's December 2024 alignment-faking paper by four months; any claim of predicting software-bypass mechanisms at April 2025 is convergent analysis, not prediction. Hardware ceiling absolute.
