Okay, if #DeSci is rising, where will researchers post and peer-review their work? A decentralized platform for that doesn’t exist yet… or maybe someone's working on that. 👀

With $2.3B in DeSci already, could it mirror DeFi's growth to $230B? Time to watch this space closely. 👀

The holiday season reminds us why we started: to promote authentic voices.
