Thanks for your comment!!
I think the same.
Blockchain technology is probably useful for many other things than we currently realize. Imagine running open access on the blockchain. It would solve more than one problem.
After publication of the paper on a blockchain, verification of investigation results by other atuhors could also be independently linked so it is immediatly obvious if results are reproducible or not. The whole quoting system would be much more useful if you can trace reproducibility.
