Evidence notebook 03
A transaction-led examination of Street Workout Community funding, disputed sand and bar costs, accommodation, medical supplies, public responses and contributor retention.
Manuel Ramos is publicly listed as SWC’s founder, CEO and community leader. @guiltyparties, writing as Value Plan’s project manager, says he selected Venezuelan promotional activities and signed off budgets. This file therefore examines both project delivery and funding oversight, without treating an account recipient as the final beneficiary.
Executive finding
The chain establishes substantial DHF-backed Value Plan transfers and corroborated real-world activity. It also leaves material vendor, quantity and invoice questions unresolved because public memos are often bundled and the source files @guiltyparties says Value Plan reviewed were not published for this review.
The public record supports a serious transparency and value-for-money review. It does not establish that a 500 HBD sandbag payment was deliberately inflated, that multi-purpose transfers were solely for metal bars, or that accommodation funding personally benefited Manuel Ramos.
A broad case-coded ledger of external transfers from the DHF-funded @valueplan account totals 385,420.04 HBD plus 31,953 HIVE. It includes clearly labelled SWC and Hive Cup rows as well as disclosed mixed or ambiguous allocations. No dedicated SWC DHF proposal was located.
Posts, photographs and videos corroborate recurring events and some bar work. Transfer memos show funds earmarked for merchandise, medical supplies and travel, but do not by themselves prove final delivery or price.
Memos often bundle materials, labour, transport, merchandise and logistics. The spreadsheets, invoices and receipts @guiltyparties says Value Plan reviewed were not published for this review.
Participant allegations and social-media images do not trace DHF-backed Value Plan transfers to a personal purchase. The public record supports scrutiny and unanswered questions, not that conclusion.
Responsibility map
Public leadership, representations to participants, local delivery and explanation of project outcomes.
Activity selection, budget approval, custody transfers, claimed review of invoices and DHF accountability.
Transfers, memos, posts and competing statements—without the unpublished vendor records Value Plan says it reviewed that would be needed for a complete audit.
Funding and custody
Value Plan is an umbrella DHF-funded program. Its transfers identify receiving wallets and public purposes, but a receiving account may be a project wallet or intermediary; the chain alone does not identify the final beneficiary. HBD and HIVE remain separately denominated.
SWC, LevelUp, Hive Cup and calisthenics rows, plus disclosed mixed allocations. Raw assets are controlling.
Excludes 4,550 HBD generic multi-project/B2B and 1,900 HBD for a joint venture explicitly described as not SWC-organized.
Narrow reproducible text filter; misses LevelUp, Hive Cup and other event-name-only rows.
Broad case-coded ledger by year
The broad ledger includes SWC, LevelUp, Hive Cup and calisthenics memos, plus identified associated recipients. It also discloses 6,650 HBD across three mixed-allocation 2024 rows; the sensitivity case above removes the two especially ambiguous rows totalling 6,450 HBD. This is not a budget-to-actual expense statement; HIVE is not silently converted into HBD.
Exact “SWC” keyword HBD subset
These categories total the narrow 346,548.04 HBD keyword floor, not the broad ledger above. They exclude all HIVE, LevelUp, Hive Cup and other event-name-only rows, plus mixed broad rows. Each whole transfer is assigned to its principal memo purpose; the chart cannot reveal how much a bundle ultimately spent on any one line item.

Cost files
A precise case does not collapse every expense into one accusation. Each disputed category has a different verified record, comparison problem and missing document.
The 4 May 2022 transfer and memo are exact. The later roughly-$100 comparison used assumed quantities and a 2024 marketplace price, not the contemporaneous invoice. It demonstrates why a receipt matters; it does not prove a $400 overcharge.
Value Plan transferred thousands of HBD under memos naming installation, repairs, storage, labour, transport and event bundles that mention bars or equipment. Calling an entire 6,000 HBD bundle “metal bars” would be inaccurate because its memo also includes merchandise, marketing and three months of logistics.
A July 2025 memo identifies hotel costs for 44 people—67.61 HBD per person gross—but does not state the property, room count, nightly rate or occupancy. A former member separately alleges meeting Manuel Ramos at a luxury hotel; no transaction or invoice tying that alleged stay to Value Plan or SWC funds was located.
The two bulk orders are exact. A comparison with one consumer first-aid kit is not like-for-like: Value Plan describes annual paramedic-grade provisions and a later restock. Quantities, vendors and invoices are not public, so the pricing still cannot be independently tested.
The Zulia record
Transfers of 1,850 HBD and 2,450 HBD identify an event, merchandise, logistics, transport and fees. A former participant says local organizers received far less and that a promised park did not arrive.
No located memo says these transfers purchased a Zulia bar park. @guiltyparties says Manuel could not keep some promises, Value Plan could not approve many proposed budgets, and regional expansion was curtailed. That leaves a delivery and communication dispute—not an on-chain proof of diversion.
Allegation and response
The response is material evidence of the program’s stated process. It is not an independent audit of the unpublished spreadsheets, invoices or receipts @guiltyparties says Value Plan reviewed.
Former participants place responsibility on Manuel Ramos and say local organizers received much less than headline event funding.
@guiltyparties, writing as Value Plan’s project manager, says he—not Manuel—selected Venezuelan promotional activities and signed off budgets.
No public source-document budget-to-actual reconciliation was located.
Critics say visible event delivery appears materially cheaper than transferred amounts.
@guiltyparties says each event had a spreadsheet, invoices and receipts reviewed by Value Plan keyholders.
The chain proves transfers and memos; the source files @guiltyparties says Value Plan reviewed were not published for this review.
Posts allege funds supported personal travel, hotels or purchases.
@guiltyparties says organizers were volunteers, salaries were out of scope and travel or accommodation served project safety and delivery.
No located evidence traces a personal asset purchase to SWC funding.
Participants describe poor conditions and an undelivered promised bar park.
@guiltyparties says Manuel could not keep some promises, many proposed budgets were not approved, and Zulia expansion was curtailed for distance, border, location and market reasons.
The two located Zulia memos fund an event, merchandise, transport, logistics and fees—not a bar park.
No transaction-by-transaction response authored by Manuel Ramos was located in the principal StopSWC threads reviewed for this snapshot. Value Plan did respond publicly, so it would be inaccurate to say the allegations received no answer.
Community activity and retention
The dataset includes 20,093 de-duplicated root posts observed in community category hive-108943 through the snapshot. Posts, authors and subscribers measure different things; none should be relabelled as people onboarded by a specific funded event.
Annual output
2026 is partial through 18 March. Volume peaked in 2025, then the observable category went quiet after March 2026.
Return windows
M+h means another root post in the exact h-th calendar month after first posting. Denominators include only cohorts with a complete observation window.
Recent trajectory
| First active year | New authors | Active in 2025 | Active in 2026 |

This measures publishing inside the SWC community category. It does not measure event attendance, passive readers, other Hive activity or off-chain sports participation.
Chronology
The sequence matters: the public allegations arrived after more than two years of funding, while the later pause was officially attributed to Venezuela’s political and safety conditions.
The official SWC account/community is created; the first observed community-category post follows on 1 January 2022.
Community recordThe first located transfer sends 4,675 HBD to @marscrea for a LevelUp 3v3 activity.
Wallet historyA supplementary transfer funds “sandbags for stabilization” omitted from the previous 3v3 transfer.
TransactionSeven transactions allocate 1,790 HBD to treatment, transport, follow-up and safety equipment after an athlete injury.
Value Plan reviewTwo transfers totaling 2,500 HBD describe installation, materials, labour, merchandise, logistics and completion.
Completion transactionDoze publishes concerns about account control, ownership and the scale of public funding.
Doze postLarge event, merchandise, medical and equipment transfers continue; Value Plan reports an SWC efficiency metric but does not publish the SWC line-item invoices needed to test these transfers.
Value Plan reviewA former member releases a long first-person account. Further participant posts follow; @guiltyparties replies in the public threads on Value Plan’s behalf.
Original testimonyThe 500 HBD transfer is compared with a later, estimated retail basket. The calculation is explicit but not a contemporaneous quote.
StopSWC analysisValue Plan sends 2,975 HBD for hotel costs under a 26 July invoice; property, nights and occupancy are not in the memo.
TransactionThe category dataset contains no later root post through the 30 July audit snapshot.
Community feedValue Plan says physical promotions in Venezuela are largely paused for political and safety reasons. A 70 HBD storage reimbursement follows in June.
Value Plan proposalClaim matrix
An exact payment can coexist with an unproven price allegation. A real event can coexist with poor cost transparency. These are not contradictions; they are the distinctions an audit must preserve.
Claim tested: SWC received DHF funding.
DHF proposal payments funded the Value Plan account, which transferred funds to SWC-linked wallets. No dedicated SWC proposal was located.
Claim tested: the sand was proven to be overcharged.
The payment is exact; the comparison uses assumed quantities and later marketplace prices. The missing contemporary invoice prevents a reliable price test.
Claim tested: thousands were solely for metal bars.
Bar-related transfers exist, but the largest memos bundle labour, merchandise, logistics, marketing, repairs and other materials.
Claim tested: Value Plan funding paid for hotels.
Multiple memos identify accommodation. The records do not, by themselves, establish luxury use or personal benefit.
Claim tested: no funded events occurred.
Posts, images, video and participant accounts corroborate recurring events. This does not verify every funded event, deliverable or price.
Claim tested: the public can verify every cost.
Value Plan says it holds source documents internally. Most are not public, so vendor, quantity and final-spend verification remains incomplete.
What would resolve the central questions
Sources and method
Primary transaction links are paired with SWC publications, participant accounts and Value Plan’s counterstatements. Estimates and testimony are explicitly labelled.
The broad case ledger classifies external @valueplan transfers whose memos identify SWC, LevelUp, Hive Cup or calisthenics activity and associated recipients. Ambiguous, mixed and excluded rows are labelled; raw HBD and HIVE remain separate.
Transaction amount and memo are verified independently from a critic’s benchmark. Later marketplace listings are not treated as contemporaneous invoices.
Every observed root post in category hive-108943 was grouped by author and UTC month. Accounts are not assumed to be unique people or attributable to a funded event.
Participant testimony and Value Plan replies are both party records. Neither substitutes for a public invoice, contract or independently audited final account.
Right of reply / corrections
SWC, Manuel Ramos, Value Plan, former members, event organizers and vendors can resolve specific rows by publishing redacted invoices, quantities, budgets, participant disbursements or corrections. New evidence should narrow or overturn findings where warranted.
