How Crowdfunding Works on ResearchHub. ResearchHub is giving donors and researchers more control by offering a faster and more transparent way to fund science. How it works: 1. Preregister the experiment Researchers publish their full methodology and planned analyses before asking for funding. This supports transparency and reproducibility. 2. Get expert peer review The community provides early feedback, improving scientific rigor before any money is raised. 3. Link to a nonprofit (optional) To unlock tax-deductible giving, researchers can link their project to a qualified nonprofit (e.g. a university foundation). Donations to the project greater than $500 become eligible for tax exemption. 1/2 https://farcaster.xyz/researchhubf/0xd5b49a4d

4. Contribute funds Supporters who donate through ResearchHub will see their money go directly to the researcher. 5. Funds are disbursed Once the goal is reached, our partner Endaoment converts and routes funds to the researcher’s institution. This allows a seamless transfer of $RSC to USD, with full documentation and compliance. 6. Research begins Money lands in a discretionary university account, free from the usual restrictions of traditional grants. No rigid budget categories. No multi-step approvals. And often 0% overhead, which allows researchers to spend flexibly on whatever their research requires. Submit your preregistration: https://new.researchhub.com/fund 2/2
