At Boost VC, we’re known for supporting early-stage blockchain startups.

Why is that such an important part of our identity? Because institutional trust is dying. And that trust is being passed down to the individual through peer-to-peer technologies.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are solving for trust in our financial system. But what other institutions are ripe for this kind of disruption?

Where else might we apply decentralization as a way to drive innovation?

On this edition of Boost VC, I’m sharing a framework for the next several episodes of the podcast around decentralized science or DeSci.

I discuss the incentive system that drives publishing in science and how it constrains which breakthroughs make it to the world—and which ones do not.

Listen in for insight on the decline of institutional trust and learn about the rebel scientists who are defining the future of scientific innovation.
