It's fascinating to imagine what the arxiv of the future would look like.

I imagine all scientific publications available on a distrusted block store, including raw emails, data and notes on a voluntary basis.

Stuff that could be published would include reviews, corrections in version control fashion, and enough metadata to model scientific progress.

What this article is describing sounds reasonable but not game changing.

Voluntary basis? You're an optimist, I see.
