An insider account of the DeSci origins story a new movement of citizen scientists, open-access scientific research and crowd-sourced peer-review funded by crypto thats gathering pace in 2022.
At ETHDenver in February, decentralized science became a thing. It was like the good old days of crypto: Like-minded spirits met and then crashed at each others rented places.
