#DeSci (Decentralized Science) uses blockchain to revolutionize research with open collaboration, transparent funding, and fair access, tackling issues like centralization and paywalls.
🧪 DeSci envisions a decentralized ecosystem where:
🔹 Funding is democratized through DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations).
🔹 Research data is stored on-chain, ensuring immutability and open access.
🔹 Intellectual property is managed fairly using tools like NFTs for discoveries.
🧪 Big Names Supporting DeSci
🔹 @VitalikButerin: Ethereum co-founder, vocal supporter of using blockchain for public goods, including science.
🔹 @cz_binance: Former Binance CEO, has highlighted DeSci’s potential to bridge the gap between blockchain and academia.
Other contributors like Gitcoin, which funds open-source projects, and protocols like IPFS for decentralized data storage, are pivotal in DeSci's development.
🧪 Why It Matters?
DeSci democratizes knowledge, fosters global collaboration, and breaks traditional barriers, paving the way for a transparent, inclusive future in research.
