SCIZYX – Science Without Borders

Mission & Goals

Mission: To build a global, decentralized ecosystem for scientific publishing where every researcher and reviewer receives transparent credit and fair token rewards for their contributions.

Eliminate the monopoly of large publishers and remove financial access barriers.
Accelerate research dissemination and improve peer-review quality.
Level the playing field for scientists worldwide, regardless of geography or funding.

The Problem

Scientific publishing is broken.

A handful of global corporations control most academic journals. They charge universities billions of dollars annually, while the researchers who write, review, and edit the papers are rarely paid — and often locked out by paywalls themselves.

Access is limited: Over 70% of peer-reviewed research is hidden behind expensive paywalls, out of reach for scientists in emerging countries, independent researchers, and even students.
Slow and inefficient: Peer review can take 6–12 months. Editors are overwhelmed. Reviewers are unpaid. Critical discoveries sit unpublished.
Unfair value distribution: Publishers profit. Researchers work for free. Reviewers remain invisible. Institutions pay multiple times — to produce, publish, and read the same work.
Outdated & centralized: A system built for paper journals in the 20th century still controls knowledge flow in the 21st. It’s slow, expensive, and exclusionary — especially for Global South researchers.

Our Solution

SCIZYX leverages blockchain and smart contracts to create a decentralized platform for publishing and peer review. All actions are transparently recorded, and rewards are distributed fairly to authors, reviewers, and curators in tokens.

Instant open access for all published articles
Transparent peer review and rating system
Smart contract-based reward distribution
Lower publication and review costs

How It Works

Submission: Authors submit their research via a decentralized portal.
Peer Review: Reviewers are selected transparently and compensated in tokens.
Publication: Accepted papers are immutably stored and open to all.
Rewards: Tokens are distributed to all contributors automatically.

Tokenomics

Total Supply: 1,000,000,000 SCIX tokens
Rewards: For publishing, reviewing, curation, and governance participation
Governance: Token holders vote on protocol upgrades
Staking: Incentives for long-term contributors
