DeScience narrative “The traditional academic system, in its existing form, generally fails to benefit researchers or their communities sufficiently.” Big names such as Elon Musk and Peter Thiel have always noted that the current century is markedly different from the previous one, as the excitement surrounding science fiction has diminished. Many brilliant minds are now gravitating towards careers in banking, law, and the internet. Despite intellectual satisfaction derived from scientific research, it is often stressful and inadequately funded. This conservative field has encountered numerous problems that have hindered its progress for decades. For scientists, securing funding is crucial at the initial stages of research. When substantial time and resources are devoted to writing grant applications without achieving stable funding, most projects must be suspended. Financial constraints have led to many scientists choosing research projects with bias, resulting in numerous replication crises.

1.4 OriginTrail OriginTrail (TRAC), while not a DeSci project per se, supports DeSci by creating verifiable and transparent supply chains for research materials, allowing for tracking of data provenance and encouraging data reuse, reproducibility, and open collaboration. These DeSci projects aim to address various challenges in the traditional scientific landscape, such as funding limitations, data silos, and lack of transparency, by leveraging decentralized and community-driven approaches powered by blockchain technology.
