Help to unblock science from mis-publication that often occurs in the centralized world. Some scientific projects don't receive funding and publicity, and if the project is important, that blocks development of the entire science.
To support basic science I aim to create grants similar to GitCoin grants but allocate a portion of each donation to dependencies and citations. This will help support underfinanced "invisible" projects and free software components that are crucial for building projects that are beneficial to users. Additionally, we will provide an affiliate program to ensure that every scientific or software project is advertised, which will help bring more visibility and funding to important scientific research.
Additionally, we will give a part of funds by later donors to early adopters, in order for start small dependency projects grow their derived works that will receive donations partly given to the dependency.
This software also contributes to peer review: If people donate money to a project (directly or as a dependency of another project), it is likely that the project was positively reviewed by them. This is in some aspects superior to traditional peer review: review is done after publication and is free from bias appearing when the review is done by just one person or a small group.
To achieve this vision, it is planned to use the revolutionary DFINITY Internet Computer to run Salaries Science grants. This will ensure that every dollar donated goes directly to funding important scientific research and supporting the underfinanced projects that often go unnoticed.
Also it is planned to make a browser extension to donate directly at sites presenting projects (such as github.com, crates.io, arxiv.org).
Please consider making a donation today to help unblock science and support crucial scientific research that can change the world for the better. Together, we can ensure that science is never hindered by unfortunate incidents and that every project has the support and funding it needs to succeed.
This project also helps to fight global poverty by offering a scientist's carrier even to those people who cannot afford a university degree.

Personal story behind the project:
In 2019, I discovered ordered semigroup actions that could have been a groundbreaking discovery for world science, but due to a mistake in publication, it was not recognized as such. I became determined to rectify this situation and ensure that such mishaps do not hinder the progress of science in the future.
Current developments: I am developing NacDB, a distributed database that will be used in this project. (NacDB is currently in testing and code review stage.)
The project is by World Science DAO and Victor Porton's Foundation 501(c)3.
