Infinite-rank conjecture for elliptic curves over fields with finitely generated Galois group

Let KK) be a field that is not locally finite, and let

GK=Gal(Ksep/K)G_K=\operatorname{Gal}(K^{\operatorname{sep}}/K)

be topologically finitely generated. Let E/KE/K be a non-trivial elliptic curve. Infinite-rank conjecture. The elliptic curve EE has infinite rank over KK. This conjecture is motivated by results proving the assertion under stronger hypotheses on the field or the elliptic curve; the general case is presented as open here.
