The contemporary system of scholarly communication is increasingly characterised by rising publication costs, institutional asymmetry, and declining transparency in the distribution of infrastructural expenditures. At the same time, a substantial proportion of expert labour within academia remains insufficiently recognised or uncompensated, while the financial burden associated with publication in international journals continues to escalate. This article proposes an alternative organisational and economic framework designated as Scientometrics 2.0 and implemented within the Chronicle OS ecosystem. The proposed model combines digital fixation of authorship priority, transparent publication economics, moderated Article Processing Charges (APCs), institutional support mechanisms for authors, and structured systems of reviewer recognition and compensation. It is argued that the reduction of intermediary overheads together with the automation of selected technical procedures may significantly decrease the overall cost of the publication cycle while simultaneously enhancing accessibility, accountability, and sustainability within international scientific communication.
