If you are perhaps lacking the incentives to partake, there are some rewards awaiting you on the other side in the form of physics generated NFT's 👀

Hello frens, we are collating some information to investigate the community attitude towards blockchains and science. Would really appreciate some reponses to our DeSci survey found here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Web3 Credentials for Web2 Scientists by Jan Ole Ernst @jan_o_e youtu.be/lH69e2bYxgM

After intense 3 days of hacking, @stadolf from Molecule's tech team is about to present our @DesciLondon Hackaton solution: 3 spoilers: - Incentivized peer reviews - Validated reviewer identities - Privacy preserving submissions Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=rxubER…

@redescience @Shamburgularara It is Sybil resistant insofar as it is very hard to create several ORCID ID's with legitimate additional credentials, like publications, code, data, or affiliations which can be checked by an external party. A nice feature is that ORCID also states the source of any information.

@RetroxPGF @Shamburgularara if anyone can make an ORCID (and they can) it's not Sybil resistant.... unless you impose further permissions

@redescience @Shamburgularara The specific parameters depend entirely on the type of scientific research /review format, but we had these thoughts in mind when designing the p33rreview protocol. Hope that makes sense.

@redescience @Shamburgularara Reviews can be conducted by anyone, but the editor/approver can check for conflicts of interest and verify the reviewers subject specific expertise with their ORCID. One is unlikely to get a high quality review in a specialized research field from a non-specialist.

@redescience @Shamburgularara This permissionless protocol anonymizes reviewer identity, yet requires authentication with ORCID - Eth links for submitters and editors. We'd love to see an implementation of it for a DeSci conference or a Journal. p33r.vercel.app github.com/elmariachi111/…

@Shamburgularara A permissionless protocol that anonymises identities and blurs authorships would be ideal or at least one of the solutions Otherwise, bottlenecks and gatekeeping will naturally precipitate and we are back where we started. They already do

Check out our DeSci London roundup: mirror.xyz/retroxblog.eth…. We had a great time - won another hackathon and shared our ideas about web3 credentials. We'd like to thank the organizers @DesciLondon and give a huge shoutout to all the great people we interacted with.

The year’s coming to a close, but we haven’t forgotten to highlight the amazing projects that received funding last quarter 🌞 Read more about the grantees building through the bear market in our Allocation Update: Q3 2022 blogpost! blog.ethereum.org/2022/12/07/esp…

Some more details are found in our latest blogpost: mirror.xyz/retroxblog.eth… where we have also documented our roadmap.

🔥Excited to share the alpha version of the Retrox ORCID ID which allows you to bring your academic credentials on-chain. Check it out: orcidauth.vercel.app. Let us know what you think and what could be improved. Contract is currently deployed on @0xPolygon Mumbai.🔥

We recently wrote a review article about the state of the DeSci ecosystem and its potential, check it out. Keep your eyes peeled for some cool DeSci tools coming straight from the Retrox Labs 👀 mirror.xyz/retroxblog.eth…
