In our last Trends in DeSci post, we showed you some trends in decentralized science. Today, we’ll share some more on this just so you should look forward to projects that are getting into these trends and benefit from them.

Data is the lifeblood of scientific research. However, concerns around data ownership, security, and privacy often hinder collaboration. DeSci is exploring ways to give researchers more control over their data while ensuring its integrity and accessibility. https://lnkd.in/dPBUYRVX

If you’ve been active in the world of web3, you’ll notice how even the scientific landscape is on a paradigm shift driven by the emergence of Web3 technologies. Our blog has a pool of articles explaining the concepts of decentralized science so don’t hesitate to explore them if you’re wondering what decentralized science is. However, today’s article exposes the key trends shaping the future of DeSci, exploring not just the “what” but also the “how” and the potential impact. Let’s begin, shall we? https://lnkd.in/dRXQjZWT

With our optimism that you are still a huge fan of decentralized science, we have gathered some trends in decentralized science that you should be looking out for and some others that have already started happening. Let’s get right into it!

Well, today, you’re in for another enlightening session as we delve into the final segment of our discussion, exploring how communities can shape decentralized science projects. https://lnkd.in/dy9N4E_c

Hey Hey Hey, We’ve added a new collection to our article series. This new collection involves prerecorded conversations on our Twitter spaces. We hope you’re as excited as us🥳? https://lnkd.in/gg-drGsy Don’t forget to listen to the Twitter space recording to have the full gist. https://lnkd.in/dS7QKN2U

Some time ago, we hosted a Twitter space on how communities shape DeSci projects where Jelani Clarke and Martin Etzrodt were speakers. In the space, we discussed the dynamics of DeSci communities and how they contribute to the growth of projects. Today’s post will be an excerpt from the Twitter space. You can listen to the Twitter space here. 👇🏾 https://lnkd.in/dS7QKN2U

In our last post, we took you through the journey of being a researcher from traditional science to decentralized science. Today, we’ll be telling you a fictional story of how a researcher went through this journey herself.

In our last article, we talked about how DeSci could benefit you, the end user, right? It would also be great to note that more builders are still joining, and we can see that in the number of DAOs we have and the amount of innovation in the space. We believe there is a lot more decentralized science can offer. https://lnkd.in/dmKtMppd

Remember that feeling of excitement when we first imagined science without borders? Where anybody with a spark of curiosity and technology could join the global quest for knowledge? That was the promise of Decentralized Science (DeSci) — a paradigm shift away from the old guard of universities, governments, and corporations controlling research and development. It was supposed to be a collaborative playground, fueled by open data, shared contributions, and fair rewards. https://lnkd.in/d48KKAyQ
