This groundbreaking guide serves as a compass, guiding conservation biologists through the unexplored territory of decentralized science and Web3 technologies in the context of our rapidly changing world.

Here are some personal thoughts on the scientific publication titled Time is Money: Strategic Timing Games in Proof-of-Stake Protocols authored by Schwarz-Schilling et al. (2023). The paper addresses the concept of strategic timing games in blockchain protocols, specifically focusing on proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus, using the empirical study case of the Ethereum Blockchain.

In my recent re-exploration of the Upgrading Ethereum book by Ben Edgington, I was captivated by the profound insights into the fundamental innovations that shape the practicality of the Eth2 protocol. These innovations, known as building blocks, form the bedrock upon which the higher-level protocol is constructed, ushering in a new era of scalability for Ethereum. While not entirely groundbreaking in their individual components, each building block represents a novel application within the Eth2 context, thanks to the meticulous research and visionary thinking of the Ethereum Foundation R\&D team.

The field of conservation biology stands at the precipice of a groundbreaking revolution, powered by the fusion of Web3 tools and Decentralized Science (DeSci). This formidable combination holds immense potential to transform the landscape of conservation biology, revolutionizing data transparency, collaboration, and scientific research (Fig. 1). In this essay, we will explore how the integration of Web3 tools and DeSci can contribute to conservation biology, ultimately paving the way for a more inclusive, transparent, and effective approach to preserving biodiversity\*\*.\*\*
