💵 Publication Fee Policy (USDT – TRON Network)

AIJAM (AI Journal of Academic Nonsense) is not a non-predatory journal (we highly suggest you submit to other journals or ArXiv).

We believe knowledge, creativity, and rebellion in science should remain open. However, maintaining AI reviewers, digital archiving, and platform sustainability requires financial operations and editors' limited time to review.

AIJAM follows a transparent and fair tiered smart-contract model, with payments accepted only in Tether (USDT) via the TRON (TRC20) network:

Category Description Fee (exclud. VAT)
🧑🏻‍🔬 Invited Researchers & Opensource Developer by Editor the fee will be waived, paid by Editor for NFT/blockchain purpose of AIJAM 6 Tron (TRX)
🧠 Independent / Unfunded Researchers Open to creative, unaffiliated, or self-funded scientists who publish out of passion, not institutional pressure. $9 USDT (TRC20)
🔬 Funded Small Research Labs Applies to projects acknowledging a small academic or private grant in their funding section. $250 USDT (TRC20)
🏢 Institutional Big Funded Projects Applies to large-scale, well-funded, or institutional research benefiting from organizational, corporate, or governmental support. $20,411 USDT (TRC20)
🚀 Fee for Premium Process Additional fee applies within 5 working days for fast tracking submission. $1,460 USDT (TRC20)

The AIJAM editor's review on cover letter cost $9 USDT because he is busy with industrial projects and have limited time; that's why he believes ArXiv is the best for your and other journals or conferences. AIJAM may waive or adjust fees in exceptional cases and editor will pay 6 TRX on Tron network for them to continue the blockchain and NFT validations in AIJAM, especially for work promoting academic reform, open science, and AI ethics.

In addition, a 37% VAT will be applied to publication fees for all researchers — except independent researchers — due to the Spanish Government’s nonsense policy that categorizes the founding editor, who was also an MSCA AI fellow, as a taxable researcher for this journal. As a result, for instance, large funded institutions will face a total charge of $27,963.07, since the Spanish Government requires researchers (including the founding editor) to pay these taxes.

“For frontiers with IQ 185+, fair for critical thinkers, and 20,411 USDT (on TRON network) for visionary institutions that can afford nonsense”

Payment Method:

💵 Tether (USDT) on TRON Network (TRC20)

📬 Wallet address will be provided after acceptance.

🧠 AIJAM — Decentralized Scholarly Publishing & Proof-of-Invention Framework

AIJAM (Artificial Intelligence Journal for Autonomous Networks) integrates academic validation, blockchain certification, and open-access publishing to protect the intellectual property of independent researchers, engineers, and artists — without the high costs of national or international patent filing.

Purpose:
"To enable postman-level patenting — allowing creators to timestamp, verify, and publicly disclose original inventions through open-access and blockchain technologies."

🧠 AIJAM — Decentralized Scholarly Publishing & Proof-of-Invention Framework

Step Layer Function
1️⃣ ArXiv Academic timestamp — establishes early public disclosure and author priority.
2️⃣ NFT / Blockchain Cryptographic proof — certifies originality and authorship with immutable global record.
3️⃣ DOI / Zenodo Option Scholarly citation record — registers final paper for global discoverability and reference.

“Authors can obtain their DOI submissions from ZENDO themselves after acceptance by ArXiv and AIJAM, supporting a more decentralized AIJAM operation. Unlike traditional journals, AIJAM does not require full copyright transfer from authors and only charges for blockchain operations. Additionally, AIJAM provides NFT minting for authors’ wallets, allowing them to sell their IP NFTs directly to others. In this way, AIJAM acts as a catalyst, eliminating middlemen.”

📊 Comparison: arXiv ID vs. DOI vs. AIJAM Blockchain Hash

Feature arXiv ID DOI NFT / Blockchain Hash (AIJAM Method)
Definition Scholarly preprint identifier from arXiv.org Persistent scholarly identifier via DataCite/CrossRef Cryptographic record of authorship stored on a public blockchain
Issuer / Registrar Cornell University Library Publishers / DataCite / CrossRef Public blockchain (e.g., TRON, ETH, BTC)
Cost to Obtain ✅ Free ⚠️ Publisher or institutional fee ✅ Minimal blockchain fee (< $1)
Recognition in Academia ✅ High (trusted globally) ✅ Very high (formal scholarly standard) ⚠️ Emerging, not yet standard
Timestamp Authenticity ✅ Server-based verification ✅ DOI metadata timestamp ✅ Immutable on-chain timestamp
Proof of Authorship ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes (linked to author’s crypto wallet)
Tamper-Proof Record ⚠️ Editable (revisions allowed) ✅ Version-controlled ✅ Fully immutable cryptographic record
Verification Platform arXiv.org doi.org / DataCite TronScan / Etherscan / Blockchain explorer
Global Accessibility ✅ Free and open ✅ Free and open ✅ Publicly verifiable worldwide
Citable in Literature ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ⚠️ With explanatory citation note
Indexing (Scholar / Scopus) ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ❌ Not yet indexed
Storage Permanence ✅ High ✅ High ✅ Blockchain-permanent
Funding Requirement ✅ None ⚠️ Institutional or publisher fee ✅ None beyond minimal gas cost
Use for IP Timestamping ⚠️ Weak legal standing ⚠️ Indirect (via DOI record) ✅ Strong cryptographic timestamp usable as proof of intellectual ownership
Bypassing High Patent Costs ❌ No ❌ No 🥇 Yes — provides prior low-cost digital proof of state of art, bypassing national and international patent fees
Accessibility to Researchers Without Funds ✅ Excellent ⚠️ Limited if fees apply ✅ Excellent — accessible with any crypto wallet
Practical IP Protection for Independent Researchers ⚠️ Limited (academic priority only) ⚠️ Costly or institutional 🥇 Excellent — decentralized, timestamped proof of originality without legal filing barriers
Best Use Case in AIJAM Early preprint timestamp Formal citation record Intellectual property preservation via blockchain verification

🧩 Summary

AIJAM’s mission is to remove the human middlemen to democratize invention and authorship protection through open science and blockchain technology.

✳️ Key Benefits

  • 🪙 Bypass costly IPs and patent systems using blockchain timestamping and authorship verification.
  • 🧬 Protect intellectual property cryptographically, linking a permanent NFT hash to each published work.
  • 🌍 Ensure accessibility to independent researchers, creators, and inventors without funding or affiliation.
  • 🔗 Bridge academia and decentralized networks — combining credibility (arXiv/DOI) with immutability (NFT Hash).
  • 🧾 Example Blockchain Certificate

    AIJAM Decentralized Authorship Verification

    AIJAM provides decentralized authorship verification that complements, not replaces, IPs, copyrights, or patents. No middleman by cryptographically timestamping inventions and research papers on public blockchains, AIJAM gives underfunded researchers the ability to prove originality and authorship globally — bypassing the prohibitive costs of international patent systems while maintaining legal credibility as timestamp evidence.
