The rise of crypto oracles means we can eventually factor many academic papers and articles alike into (a) feeds of cryptographically verifiable data and (b) a reproducible-research-style narrative layer on top. https://cephalopods.blog/2020/09/18/some-notes-on-balaji-srinivasans-talk-on-the-future-of-media/">https://cephalopods.blog/2020/09/1...

A more complex advocate may take a price oracle feed, do some calculations, and render the results as charts in an article.
Importantly, if published via reproducible research, a reader could individually verify every assertion, drilling all the way down to raw on-chain entries.
