What is ResearchCoin?

ResearchCoin (RSC) is a token anyone can earn by sharing, curating, and discussing academic science within ResearchHub. RSC is a utility token, meaning that it serves a specific function within the platform, giving holders the opportunity to participate in governance, access specific features, or use the tokens to support the work of other scientists and users on the platform.
