Scienceroot

SCIENCE ROOT is a decentralized platform that leverages the power of blockchain technology and incentivizing power of crypto economics to create an ecosystem where anyone in the science community around the globe will have the ability to gather funding ,discuss research ideas, collaborate  and in the end publish their work through a more efficient, intuitive and transparent platform.

PROS:

• The platform promotes faster exchanges through the use its own currency, science tokens(STs) which can be exchanged instantly regardless of the users location hence promoting the involvement of global scientific and non-scientific community in the platform
• The platform has unique identities  through the integration of  project like ORCID and ResearchID with blockchain technology  hence ensuring an immutable persistent digital identifier that can be integrated within  a research workflow
• The platform enables every article to be submitted by the user to be time-stamped  to create an immutable open access archive for all the scientific articles  with no individual or organization having control over the system with all information clearly accessible to everyone
• The platform has a rewarding system through an incentivizing mechanism  for peer-reviewing  and a rewarding program for the authors of scientific papers  hence attracting more creativity and readers  interest
• The platform enables registered researchers, academics ,scientists and other organizations to easily access funds  across  the globe to help grow the research  activities
• The platform has a  good network of team members with related skills and experience in IT , Finance  and management enabling easy implementation of the project
• The platform whitepaper is elaborate e with all the necessary information appertaining the token use clearly highlighted hence attracting different users

CONS:

• The platform lacks a  properly developed mobile application to enable the scientists to easily link up
• The ST token exchangeability with other cryptocurrencies and fiat is not highlighted  for easy dissemination of research ideas in the remote areas
• The platform whitepaper is not available in several languages to promote  an extensive use of the project

SUGGESTIONS:

• The platform technical team should develop a mobile application supported by Android and IOs to enable the research organizations  and scientists share their ideas easily
• The platform should involve internationally accepted translators to create the whitepaper is several languages
• The ST tokens should be made exchangeable with other cryptocurrencies and fiat to for easy exchanges

NOTE:

The platform helps in easy dissemination of scientific ideas and research through the application of blockchain technology which improves the access to new information. I would invest in this project.

Very complex project (in a good way). What is understood is the commercial viability to be a strong player in a cutting edge industry. Solid team. Will root for this.
