WORLD ACADEMIC NETWORK TOKEN (WANT)
Whitepaper
Empowering Decentralized Science through Blockchain Technology
1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
Science has driven humanity's greatest advancements, but traditional systems for funding, publishing, and collaboration are outdated, opaque, and restrictive. $WANT introduces a decentralized science (DeSci) ecosystem that leverages blockchain technology to empower researchers, incentivize contributors, and democratize access to scientific knowledge.
1.2. Vision
To create a transparent, open, and collaborative global ecosystem where science thrives without barriers.
2. Problem Statement
Limited Funding Access: Researchers struggle with limited funding channels dominated by traditional institutions.
Centralized Gatekeepers: Scientific publications are controlled by expensive journals and paywalls.
Lack of Transparency: Research processes, funding allocation, and intellectual property (IP) tracking lack transparency.
Inefficient Incentives: Contributors such as reviewers and collaborators are often underrecognized and undercompensated.
3. Solution
3.1. The $WANT
$WANT is a blockchain-based utility token that powers the pump.fun DeSci platform. It facilitates funding, incentivization, governance, and open access to scientific research.
3.2. Core Features
Crowdfunding Science: Researchers can create campaigns to fund projects directly from contributors.
Open Publishing: Scientific findings are published on an immutable blockchain, accessible to all.
Incentivized Collaboration: Reviewers, contributors, and peer collaborators earn tokens for their participation.
Decentralized Governance: Token holders vote on platform improvements, funding priorities, and community rules.
4. Tokenomics
4.1. Token Distribution
Total Supply: 1 Billion Tokens
Allocation: Created on the WANT pump.fun (SOLANA) platform on 21.12.2024. Will be published after sufficient liquidity is provided by holders
Pump prevents rugs by making sure that all created tokens are safe. each coin on pump is a fair-launch with no presale and no team allocation.
4.2 Contract

4.3. Utility
Funding Projects: Use tokens to support scientific projects and earn staking rewards.
Access & Services: Pay for data access, tools, and lab services using $WANT.
Governance: Participate in voting and decision-making within the platform.
5. Technology
5.1. Blockchain Infrastructure
Built on Solana (pump.fun) for scalability and security.
Smart contracts ensure transparent and automated transactions.
5.2. Decentralized Data Storage
Research data and publications are stored securely on decentralized storage solutions like IPFS or Arweave.
5.3. Security Measures
Robust token audits and compliance with regulatory standards.
