One Washington State daycare was overcharged by $121,805 beyond the legal capacity limits—and someone dug it out by cross-referencing blockchain-based public records. The transparency worked. A $500 bounty incentivized the discovery, now fully claimed. It's a quiet but powerful example: when data sits on open ledgers, overspending gets caught faster. No intermediaries, no delays. Just direct verification. The bounty mechanism itself shows how decentralized reward systems can motivate accountability at scale—whether it's catching municipal misspending or auditing institutional reserves. Not flashy, but effective.
