A decentralized scientific publishing platform.
The DeSci Journals:
-
Practice 100% copyright for Authors. Industry standard is zero %.
-
Use a 1-page with simple and straightforward submission flow for both articles (https://platform.desci.reviews/summary/new-document) and journals (recently developed and deployed in version 2, https://platform.desci.reviews/summary/new-journal) which is a new much simpler feature when compared to pages long used in traditional scientific journals. We made adding wallets optional.
-
Have introduced features such as the percentage of authorship, which can include, not only individual authors, but also laboratories, institutions and DAOs.
-
Give the choice to Authors to choose whether open access or paid access with funds going directly to the Author’s wallet.
-
Operate as digital cooperative financially compensating editor, reviewers and designers.
-
Will publish papers as NFTs to push forward a secondary market formation (v3).
