Decentralized science (DeSci) is a new way to do scientific research using blockchains to make research more open, clear, and accessible to all. 

In the traditional system of science, called “TradSci,” central institutions manage research. Examples of these institutions include universities, government agencies, and private companies. While this system has led to great advancements, it also creates barriers to progress. These hurdles include high costs for research and publishing, limited access to knowledge, and slow collaboration. 

DeSci, on the other hand, focuses on open science — a movement that believes all knowledge should be freely accessible. Using tools like decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), smart contracts, and tokens, DeSci helps scientists take charge of how research is funded, done, and shared. It supports global collaboration, encourages open-source data sharing, and removes gatekeepers who limit access to scientific discoveries.
