\subsection{Sustainability Model}
|
|
|
|
The DeSci platform is funded by the \DAO{} treasury (1T $\KEEPER$ allocated at genesis \cite{zoo-tokenomics}). Sustainability depends on:
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item \textbf{Network Effects.} More data in the Commons attracts more researchers, who contribute more data.
|
|
\item \textbf{Usage Fees.} AI inference and storage fees generate ongoing revenue for validators.
|
|
\item \textbf{External Funding.} Institutional partners (universities, governments, NGOs) contribute $\KEEPER$ to fund research in their domains.
|
|
\item \textbf{Impact Bonds.} Conservation outcomes trigger bond payouts, recycling capital back into the research pipeline.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Cost Comparison}

Grant application & 200+ person-hours & 10 person-hours \\

Peer review cycle & 6--12 months & 21 days \\
|
|
Data hosting (per TB/year) & \$500--2,000 & 120M $\KEEPER$ ($\sim$\$240) \\
|
|
Reproducibility verification & Weeks (manual) & Minutes (automated) \\
|
|
Cross-institution collaboration & Legal agreements & \DID{} capability tokens \\
