{"round": {"name": "GG21 DeSci Round", "support": {"info": "https://t.me/gitcoindesci/678", "type": "Telegram Group Invite Link"}, "roundType": "public", "eligibility": {"description": "DeSci (Decentralized Science) envisions a fair and equitable ecosystem for funding, creating, reviewing, crediting, storing, and disseminating scientific knowledge. The core idea is simple: transparency and decentralization lead to collaboration and progress in academia and beyond. The first DeSci round was held during GR15 in September 2022. GG21 is the 4th official DeSci round on Gitcoin.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          As DeSci continues to grow, the stewards and operators envision the DeSci round becoming more than just a round—it aims to serve as an ecosystem governance framework, empowering stakeholders to shape the future of decentralized science.                                               　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　                                                                                                                         　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        https://x.com/DeSci_Round_Ops", "requirements": [{"requirement": "The project should fall under the category of Decentralized Science.
