Classical scientometrics, developed as a tool for quantitative registration of scientific publications, played an important role in structuring academic infrastructure. However, under conditions of high-speed digital cycles, traditional metrics increasingly reveal limitations associated with bureaucratisation of scientific evaluation, institutional inertia, and reduced transparency of verification mechanisms. This paper proposes the concept of Scientometrics 2.0 as a discipline for managing the lifecycle of scientific knowledge within digital institutional environments. The methodological foundation of the model comprises Universal Formology, the institutional architecture IMARCH CitHronical, and the technological infrastructure Chronicle OS. The proposed approach includes cryptographic priority fixation, anonymised verification protocols, digital routing mechanisms for scientific assets, and a four-stage model of knowledge institutionalisation: idea → form → institution → recognition. It is argued that the transition from passive measurement of publication activity to active management of scientific capital can reduce transactional costs of the publication cycle and increase transparency of academic expertise.
