According to Cointelegraph, Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson believes that the scientific community has problems with over-centralization and insufficient incentives. He called the traditional scientific publishing system "badly broken" and said that blockchain-based DeSci can solve this problem.

Peer review is a long-standing area of ​​concern in the scientific community, aimed at ensuring the accuracy of research. However, some believe the process is open to abuse and question the fairness and diversity of the review process.

The DeSci movement aims to bridge the gap between traditional peer review and scientific achievement by incentivizing the participation of qualified reviewers. DeSci relies on decentralized autonomous organizations to guide protocols and funding, eliminating reliance on a single journal.
