Since it was for a ETHGlobal hackathon I thought it would be fun to experiment with the feature where we mint an NFT where the metadata points to the IPFS link. You could then do whatever you do with an NFT.
I wonder how much information do you get from arxiv regarding the dependency graph via citations. Could there be a way that I, as I upload my own manuscript, to tip the authors of the people I citated and conversely someday have the possibility of also generating revenue personally as such? It would be much nicer, I think, if the fees that are currently paid to journals to instead go to the authors that also contributed to my work.
There are for sure interesting ideas related to new forms of scientific funding. The issue I have and why the project is currently on standby is how to combat spam/hoax articles
