Ask HN: Social micropayment system for scientists?

I always see papers being posted and a lot are behind large paywalls or only available to certain schools, or only available through large publishers with shit sites and huge prices which I assume the scientist doesn't see any of.

Does something like this exist? I want to make access to journals and discoveries easier while at the same time awarding those scientists.

This could be great for grad students and the like. However, I have no experience with this. I'm not even done my undergrad and I'm not in science so I have no idea how publication works.

My goal is to develop a site where users can upload their papers. Readers can setup a daily/weekly/monthly budget with bitcoin/real money and whatever they read, a percentage of that money they have in their "wallet" would be divided by the number of papers/articles they read.

How do you feel about this HN? I know Flatrr exists which is similar, but I want to target the science community and integrate bitcoin as well.
