While the crypto community is captivated by meme coins, science is not standing still. Blockchain is capable of much more. For example, in combination with medicine and biotechnologies. A new direction called DeSci (short for Decentralized Science) has emerged to transform scientific research, funding, and knowledge management based on blockchain. It aims to eliminate the limitations of traditional science, such as bureaucracy, limited access to funding, and centralized management. Today, we will look at the most popular projects in this niche based on their fully diluted valuationFully Diluted Valuation, FDV, is a financial metric that estimates the value of a cryptocurrency project or company, taking into account the total number of tokens that can be issued in the future..
- OriginTrail (TRAC) — a decentralized knowledge graphA structured database or model that represents information as interconnected elements., combining knowledge graph technologies and blockchain to create a universe of knowledge assets ready for AI integration.
- VitaDAO (VITA) — a global distributed community that owns, finances, and incubates aging research aimed at commercializing the intellectual property obtained.
- Hippocrat (HPO) — a cryptocurrency platform for decentralized science that gives people control over their medical data using blockchain.
- Rifampicin (RIF) — a cryptocurrency based on Solana, launched on the pump.science platform, which finances and gamifies longevity experiments. The RIF token provides partial ownership of rifampicin testing experiments.
- Data Lake (LAKE) — an EU-funded startup that creates a global system for donating medical data based on blockchain. The system is based on confidentiality and informed consent. It allows safe and easy provision or revocation of consent for the use of medical data, while facilitating research development.
- ResearchHub (RSC) — an open science platform that allows users to review, publish, and collaborate on scientific research.
- GenomesDAO (GENOME) — a private and secure DNA data bank that returns control over your genome thanks to blockchain technology and AMD SVS-ES storage.
- Urolithin A (URO) — a token associated with longevity experiments conducted with the compound Urolithin A.
- Deep Worm (WORM) — an autonomous digital organism, created to operate continuously on the blockchain. It simulates the neural architecture of the worm Caenorhabditis elegans, using 302 neurons to make decisions. The combination of biological neural networks and blockchain creates a digital entity capable of autonomous function.
- Rejuve.AI (RJV) — a decentralized platform supporting longevity research. Participants receive personalized insights and contribute to the development of the field.
