Such a cynical cash-grab attempt at monetizing a platform that is supposed to be designed for open access. The whitepaper doesn't explain the way in which these crypto tokens are supposed to promote the goals of the SciHub project, just nebulous hand-waving about "rewarding the sharing of files."

After a decade of crypto pump and dump scams, you'd think it would take more than a poorly written, technically bereft whitepaper to scam scientists of all people.

Shame on these charlatans.

Sorry, cap'n, that ain't the way to do it. You shall be marooned with one Bottle of Powder, one Bottle of Water, one small Arm, and Shot.
