Cortex DeSci
Mine

Read a paper. Earn $CXS.

If you can read a biomedical abstract, you can mine. The AI does the extraction; your job is to check that it got it right before it goes on-chain.

Chrome or any Chromium browser. On first run it generates a wallet and encrypts it with a password you choose. The key never leaves your machine and we never see it.

Open a research paper

Browse to any paper on a supported site. The extension detects it, reads the abstract, and proposes the causal claims it found — subject, relation, object, plus the sentence it came from.

03you stay in control

Review, then submit

You approve or edit each claim before anything is written. Approved claims go on-chain and settle into daily rewards. Nothing is submitted without you clicking.

Questions

Before you start

Do I need an OpenAI or Groq key?

No. Cortex covers the AI cost for a set number of extractions per day, per wallet. If you want to mine past that, you can plug in your own provider key in settings and the daily cap no longer applies to you.

Do I need to fund a wallet first?

No. Mining runs on Robinhood Chain where transaction fees are negligible, and the reward pool covers them. There is nothing to top up before you start.

Who owns what I submit?

Nobody, in the useful sense. Claims are written on-chain as public data. You earn $CXS for contributing them; the knowledge itself stays open for anyone to read, index, or build on.

What stops people submitting junk?

Claims are scored for topic relevance, evidence quality and novelty before they count, duplicates are collapsed, and each wallet has a daily ceiling. Low-quality submissions score below the reward threshold and earn nothing.
