One thing I learned about: Decentralized Science (DeSci)
Challenges in science: opaque funding, pay-walled publishing, unpaid/slow peer-review, and the replication crisis.
Decentralized Science tries to address this:
- Incentives: citations -> impact
- Funding: opaque -> transparent
- Peer-review: unpaid, unqualified -> paid, quality-weighted
- IP: expensive -> affordable, co-owned
