On the Fundamental Principles and Concepts of Obidi's Theory of Entropicity (ToE)

John Onimisi Obidi is a physicist, researcher, and philosopher known primarily as the creator of the Theory of Entropicity (ToE). His work, which gained significant visibility in 2025, positions entropy as the fundamental field of reality rather than just a statistical measure of disorder. 

Theory of Entropicity (ToE) 

This framework is proposed as a Grand Unified Theory (GUT) candidate that aims to reconcile thermodynamics, relativity, and quantum mechanics. Key pillars of his research include: 

• Entropy as a Dynamic Field: ToE redefines entropy as an "ontological scalar field" that permeates the universe and drives all physical phenomena, including the emergence of spacetime and gravity.
• The Obidi Action & Master Entropic Equation (MEE): These are the core mathematical components of the theory. The Obidi Action is a variational principle used to derive the MEE, which governs how entropic gradients evolve—analogous to Einstein’s field equations in General Relativity.
• Redefining the Speed of Light (
  

  $c$
  ): In Obidi's framework,
  

  $c$
  is not just a geometric constant but the Entropic Speed Limit (ESL)—the maximum rate at which the universe can process information or rearrange entropy.
• The No-Rush Theorem: A principle stating that all physical interactions require a finite duration, precluding instantaneous effects. 

Academic and Professional Profile 

Obidi operates as an independent consultant-researcher associated with the Research Lab, The Aether. He has published numerous papers through platforms like Cambridge University Open Engage, SSRN, and ResearchGate. 

• Distinct Identity: He frequently notes that he is not the same person as the well-known Nigerian social media consultant and tech influencer, John Obidi.
• Published Works (2025): His recent publications include "Einstein and Bohr Finally Reconciled on Quantum Theory" and "On the Conceptual and Mathematical Foundations of the Theory of Entropicity". 

His research continues to be actively developed, with his most recent papers appearing as lately as December 31, 2025.
