I just found out about ResearchCoin (RSC) and I can only see upside for this project. Brian Armstrong is the cofounder!

I found out that Brian Armstrong cofounded a DeSci platform called ResearchHub that's trying to disrupt the global research and academia industry, a market of approximately $3 trillion.

The platform has already redefined how scientific research gets funded, reviewed, and published. It operates as a GitHub for science. Researchers publish work, peer-review each other, and propose experiments that the community funds directly using the native token called ResearchCoin (RSC).

ResearchHub has been positioning itself to absorb a piece of the market by making the process faster, more transparent, and open to anyone instead of locked behind slow-moving grant agencies and paywalled journals. Scientists from the most prestigious universities (Stanford, Purdue, USC, MIT) have already received funding from ResearchHub and high networth individuals and institutions have given millions of dollars to fund research.

Unlike most obscure projects, RSC is already listed on major exchanges such as Coinbase, Kraken and Revolut [(actually it just got added today](https://x.com/ResearchHubF/status/2062898589739671644)), [Gate.io](http://Gate.io), MEXC, and several other exchanges. It's also on Aerodrome DEX on Base. With all of that, the market cap is still sitting around only $12 million.

With the market being down right now, this feels like one of those moments where you either catch something early or you look back later wishing you had. A working platform, a cofounder who literally built one of the biggest exchanges in the world and who is not going to rugpull you, and a token you can buy and sell relatively easily.

I genuinely only see an upside with this project.
