ResearchHub's DeSci Project Spotlighted in Nature Journal

The decentralized science protocol ResearchHub, which compensates peer reviewers with cryptocurrency, was featured in the prestigious journal Nature, highlighting its potential impact on the scientific community. ResearchHub pays reviewers $150 in ResearchCoin (RSC) per paper, offering a financial incentive that some find more lucrative than traditional academic roles. Despite its innovative approach, challenges remain, such as converting RSC to fiat currency. The platform, backed by Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, aims to address issues in traditional science, though its radical nature may hinder widespread adoption.
