Science thrives on curiosity, but today’s incentive structures often fence off the most original questions. This gathering invites anyone interested in science—builders, funders, garage tinkerers, and academics alike—to design “scientific flywheels,” self-reinforcing loops of capital, community, and credit that let ideas spin up anywhere, not just inside well-funded labs. We’ll dig into practical models such as DAO-enabled micro-grants, open-access IP pools, distributed wet-lab networks, and reputation protocols that reward replication, negative results, and public data drops, while trading stories and debating how these pieces could knit together into a sustainable future for discovery so the best questions get answered no matter where they start.
