MacArthur Park, Los Angeles CA (site 1)
Take a soil-carbon sample.
A technician drives a soil core sampler into the field at MacArthur Park, then bags and labels the cores from each depth for the lab. Read all of it
Not funded yet. Settles as earned credit, $380 proposed.
Proof it takes, the deadline, the level

All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Check the soil carbon at MacArthur Park, Los Angeles CA (site 1). It has never been checked before, and this check lets the people who use this place know where things stand.
Offer to pay $380. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.
Safety, read before you claim
Needs someone who can take soil cores at set depths and bag and label them for the lab; no licence is asked. Be aware of farm equipment, coordinate with the operator, and do not make carbon claims on-site: baseline only.
The full safety list for this job:
- Hazards here: the corer and probe, a bent back, sun and soil on your hands. Wear gloves and closed-toe boots, lift with your legs, bring water and wash your hands after. Stop work and move off if the corer strikes a pipe, a cable or any buried object, or if farm equipment is working nearby. Some experience of this kind of work helps; this job asks for no license or certificate.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- soil core sampler / auger
- bulk-density ring (known volume)
- depth tape / markers
- sample bags + labels
- GPS phone
- camera
- chain-of-custody + data sheet
Steps
- 1. Confirm the field + management zone; record GPS; lay out stratified sampling points by soil type / slope position.
- 2. At each point, take cores at defined depth increments (e.g., 0-10 and 10-30 cm); record each depth.
- 3. Collect a known-volume bulk-density sample at each depth (needed to compute carbon per area).
- 4. Composite same-depth cores per zone; bag, label, and complete chain-of-custody to the lab for SOC% by dry combustion.
- 5. Photograph the site, a soil profile, and each sampling point; note land use and management history.
- 6. Record the GPS grid, depths, bulk-density samples, COC number, and photos into the proof record; sign.
What counts as done
- Photos of profile + sampling points
- GPS grid waypoints
- Cores at defined depths per zone
- Bulk-density sample per depth
- Chain-of-custody to accredited lab
- Management-history note
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment, made by the payer straight to the worker, with no Vealth fee. Paying Vealth is closed: Vealth takes no new card or wallet payment for a job. To fund a job, offer to pay the worker directly, then pay them yourself when you accept the proof, from your own wallet or by your own card or bank. From a wallet: prepare_token_offer, sign, submit_token_offer; after the proof is accepted you pay the worker on chain and the worker records it (prepare_token_settlement, or POST /labor/settle for USDC on Base). By card or bank: prepare_direct_offer, sign, submit_direct_offer; you pay the worker yourself and the worker records it with prepare_direct_settlement. Both are free, need no gas, and move no money through Vealth.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
