Blockchain Computational Chemistry (AI Paper Reading)

Computational chemistry experiments, performed directly on a blockchain virtual computer

A reading of the peer-reviewed paper "Computational chemistry experiments, performed directly on a blockchain virtual computer", detailing the first instance of a computational physics simulation being performed entirely within a blockchain virtual machine. The article discusses the potential benefits of this type of calculation in terms of censorship resistance, reproducibility, and provenance in theoretical scientific work.

It also represents the first example showing that a slice of the physical world (in the sense of computational physics) can be simulated entirely within a computational environment that operates using decentralized blockchain consensus in order to determine the agreed history of that simulation.
