Major scientific journal Nature features DeSci project ResearchHub
ResearhHub is backed by Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong who has strongly advocated for science peer reviewers to get paid.
Nature — one of the world’s most cited scientific journals in the world — has just featured ResearchHub, a decentralized science (DeSci) protocol, a move that could potentially alert the wider scientific community to DeSci and cryptocurrency.
In a Dec. 11 article, Nature — which sees 9 million viewers monthly — featured ResearchHub’s platform, which pays peer reviewers the equivalent of $150 in cryptocurrency to give an independent review of new research papers.
It’s proven a financial opportunity for some too, Nature noted in its article — pointing to São Paulo molecular-biology consultant Pedro Paulo Gattai Gomes, who said he now earns more money reviewing for ResearchHub than what he made in his professorial roles at academic institutions.
