Science once belonged to the few. Publications were accessible only to a select group of specialists, funding was controlled by corporations and government institutions, and groundbreaking ideas could wait years for recognition. But times are changing. Today, we are witnessing a quiet yet powerful revolution—scientific research is breaking free from universities and private laboratories, becoming accessible to everyone.
DeSci—Decentralized Science—is transforming the very paradigm of scientific discovery, replacing traditional funding and publication models with more open and democratic mechanisms.
Previously, the publication of scientific data and access to it were strictly controlled by institutional players. Young researchers faced bureaucratic barriers when trying to publish their work. At Holiverse, we merge the metaverse with fundamental science, developing digital avatars based on DNA. This is a true breakthrough in personalized medicine: now, we can model how the human body reacts to environmental factors, test new drugs, and even predict what a person will look like decades from now.
The year 2025 could be a turning point for DeSci. We are on the brink of new discoveries—but are we ready for them? Or will we once again fall into the same old trap where science belongs only to a privileged few? Find the answer in the article at the link.
The very concept of decentralized science is profoundly striking! It’s hardly a secret that articles and journals in this field are subject to rather stringent oversight and, dare I say, censorship—not so much due to “harmful” content, but rather the whims of personal bias or, worse yet, the fleeting fashions of scientific trends. Under such circumstances, papers that dare to diverge from the prevailing consensus often find themselves relegated to the dustbin, or worse, their authors face undue pressure. Thus, a platform where this apparatus of “control” is simply nonexistent could, if not propel science forward, at the very least foster the growth of those avenues presently deemed “unorthodox.” A truly splendid idea!
