1. Fractal Flows is the only DeSci platform to integrate [Consider.it](http://Consider.it)  for social voting as a critical feature to involve normal citizens in the scientific consensus process. This is the probably the first real effort by a DeSci project to simplify the integration of normal citizens’ opinions in the Open Science process;
2. Research Objects ([https://www.researchobject.org/](https://www.researchobject.org/)) integration. Research Object is an open standard for identification, aggregation and exchange of research resources (data, code, logs, workflows…) required to make research reproducible. 
3. Social media integration. We want to make individuals, researchers, startups, corporations and governments making claims pertaining to science and engineering accountable for what they say. For this end, we have developed a Twitter integration that enables people to use #FFclaimit on Twitter to automatically host claims on Fractal Flows. The Fractal Flows bot will then tweet back with a link to the hosted claim page for everyone to see and engage.
4. On-chain scientific validation. Every step towards validating a scientific claim on Fractal Flows, from hosting a claim to adding and curating an evidence, is done through smart contract interactions on the Ethereum blockchain.
