Design feature DF1: Tokenization

Tokenization creates unique digital representations of incentives, with non-fungible and fungible tokens enabling different types of extrinsic incentive.

Source paper

This design feature is a technology-specific realization proposed by Blockchain-based token system for incentivizing peer review: A design science approach (Chad Anderson, Pratiksha Shrestha, Suman Bhunia, Arthur Carvalho, Younghwa Lee, 2025).

2 Design Principles

design-knowledge/peer-review-token-incentives-dp1

DP1 - Motivation-appropriate incentives

Provide incentives to reviewers that appeal to their specific motivations, since understanding and leveraging different types of motivation ensures the system effectively encourages participation.

design-knowledge/peer-review-token-incentives-dp2

DP2 - Flexibility

Support customizable functionality that can accommodate varying incentive schemes depending on the specific needs and preferences of each journal, since flexibility increases the likelihood of securing enough willing reviewers while respecting the diversity in reviewer motivations.

Blockchain-based token system for incentivizing peer review: A design science approach

The paper proposes formal design principles for peer-review incentive mechanisms and a concrete blockchain-based token system that lets editors offer incentives while reviewers flexibly utilize them, implemented through the design features of tokenization, immutability and decentralized storage.
