BIO is a
protocol
for
directing
capital
and
talent
to
biotech
DAOs
("BioDAOs”)
and
tokenized
scientific
IP. The
protocol
serves
as a
decentralized
funding,
governance
and
liquidity
engine
for
early-stage
science,
supercharging
preclinical
research
through
globally-sourced
liquidity
and
talent.
What
Uniswap
did for
long-tail
crypto
projects,
BIO aims
to do
for
tokenized
science.
What are
BioDAOs?
BioDAOs
are
community-owned
IP
creation
engines,
focused
on a
specific
biotech
area.
They
bring
together
scientists,
patients,
backers
and
enthusiasts
around
specific
therapeutic
areas,
such as
women's
health
or
neurodegeneration.
The
R&D
and IP
generated
is
monetized
by
minting
IP-NFTs
and
IPTs,
spinning
out
companies,
and
licensing/selling
the IP
to
traditional
biotech
companies.
Proceeds
flow
back to
the
BioDAO
treasuries,
to fund
and
translate
the next
generation
of
R&D,
further
advancing
the
BioDAO’s
mission.
What are IP-NFTs
and IPTs?
IP-NFTs
and IPTs
digitize
scientific
intellectual
property
(IP) by
encoding
the
associated
legal
agreements
and
R&D
data on
a
blockchain.
IP
Tokens
(IPTs)
are
unique
ERC-20
tokens
that
serve as
governance
tokens
over the
scientific
IP
generated,
data-sharing
policies
and IP
licensing
and
acquisition
proceeds.BioDAOs
typically
hold
portfolios
of
IP-NFTs
and
IPTs,
which
they
help
launch
and
incubate
through
tokenization,
liquidity
and
governance.
What is the BIO
token?
BIO is
the
native
governance
token of
the BIO
protocol.
BIO may
be used
by
holders
to
signal
which
bioDAOs
to
support,
vote on
future
BIO
incentives("Bio/acc
Rewards"),
and vote
on
programs
for the
development
of
bioDAOs
and
specific
IP
assets
in the
BIO
ecosystem.
How do I get the
BIO token?
While
the BIO
token is
live, it
is not
currently
transferrable
and can
only be
bought
or sold
once
governance
votes to
make the
token
transferrable.
This
vote is
expected
by early
Q1,
2025.
