Scientific publishing is structurally slow, opaque, and incentive-misaligned. Editorial bottlenecks, anonymous gatekeeping, and delayed reviewer recognition create friction in knowledge production. Blockchain infrastructure introduces verifiable state transitions, programmable incentives, and […]

I claim that superintelligence alignment is likely to be reached. This is a popular explanation of my scientific article about AI alignment. Artificial intelligence is becoming powerful enough to write […]

Decentralized science (DeSci) addresses structural inefficiencies and incentive distortions in the traditional research ecosystem. By leveraging blockchain infrastructure, DAOs, and tokenized funding models, DeSci seeks to realign incentives toward openness, […]

Artificial intelligence is typically discussed as a tool for discovery—accelerating drug design, automating proofs, optimizing simulations. Far less examined is a parallel question: can AI also help finance scientific research? […]

Short answer: Not in the near term. But it can partially displace, pressure, and structurally transform them. ⚙️ Decentralized Science (DeSci) — built on blockchains, DAOs, and open collaboration — […]

Short answer: yes, but legality depends on structure, jurisdiction, and token design. ⚖️ A science DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) is typically a blockchain-based entity that funds, coordinates, or governs scientific […]

In a science DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization), funding decisions are made collectively — but the exact mechanism depends on the DAO’s governance design. Unlike traditional grant systems controlled by agencies […]

Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) select research projects through transparent, token-governed, and community-driven processes. Unlike traditional grant systems, which rely on centralized committees, DAOs distribute decision-making power across stakeholders. Proposal Submission […]

A science token is a blockchain-based digital asset used to fund, govern, and incentivize scientific research within decentralized ecosystems such as Decentralized Science (DeSci). It operates through smart contracts on […]

Open-source science funding is a model of research financing that applies the principles of open-source software—transparency, collaboration, and public access—to the funding and governance of scientific work. Instead of relying […]
