On December 23, Binance announced that Binance Launchpool will launch its 63rd project, BIO Protocol (BIO), and BIO/USDT, BIO/BNB and other trading pairs will be opened on January 3, 2025. According to the Binance announcement, the total initial supply of BIO Protocol's genesis tokens is 3,320,000,000, and the initial circulating supply on Binance will be 1,296,529,168 tokens, accounting for about 39.05% of the total genesis token supply. Of this, 56% of the BIO tokens will be allocated to the ecosystem and community, 25.4% to early contributors, and 18.6% to early supporters.

Since Binance Labs announced its investment in BIO Protocol, the DeSci market has been reignited, with related concept tokens such as VITA, GROW, and RSC seeing significant increases. After the Binance Launchpool news was released, the recently popular ecosystem meme coins also rose rapidly, with RIF surging over 40% in the short term, URO over 35%, and DRUGS over 150%. In addition, "veteran" DeSci projects such as VITA and RSC have also begun to see market reactions.

In this article, BlockBeats comprehensively sorted out the current BIO ecosystem and the potential targets related to the DeSci concept, from DAO to NFT to meme coins, the DeSci field is not lacking in speculation opportunities.

BIO Ecosystem DeSci DAO

BIO is a biological DAO network, with each biological DAO focusing on developing research and products in specific scientific fields. Currently, the BIO network consists of eight different scientific communities, focusing on areas such as longevity, women's health, neurodegenerative diseases, and synthetic biology. This article will not go into too much detail about the background and mechanism of the BIO Protocol.

Initial DeSci DAO

The initial DeSci DAO organizations were established before BIO Protocol was separated from Molecule, and there are currently 7 of them. After the establishment of BIO Protocol, these DAO organizations were first incorporated into the BIO network. In the previous BIO Genesis Event, users had to exchange BIO tokens using the tokens of these DAO organizations, so these DAO tokens are also part of the BIO network assets.

VitaDAO: Raised over $5 million in the longevity science field, is a decentralized scientific organization supported by Pfizer Ventures and Balaji Srinivasan, and collaborates with the University of Newcastle. It is worth noting that VitaDAO is the "elder of the elders", the first DeSci DAO and the mother of the BIO protocol, Molecule, focusing on longevity research. The current BIO Protocol Association is also founded by the main members of VitaDAO, a Swiss non-profit organization.

HairDAO: Focuses on hair loss; the DAO owns patents and consumer products Follicool.

CerebrumDAO: Promotes brain health, raised over $1.5 million, and has an agreement with Fission Pharma to address mitochondrial dysfunction in neurodegenerative diseases.

ValleyDAO: Focuses on synthetic biology, raised over $2 million, and collaborates with Imperial College London.

AthenaDAO: Promotes women's health R&D, provides $500,000 in funding for translational research, and has 14 pending intellectual property transactions.

CryoDAO: Promotes the development of cryogenics, has raised over $3 million for the field, and has established projects with Oxford Cryogenic Technology and Advanced Neuroscience.

PsyDAO: Focuses on psychedelics, launching a new platform OPSY to utilize psychedelic trials and data.

First Batch of Launchpad DAOs

BIO Protocol recently announced the first batch of Launchpad DAOs that will be launched on its platform through the Launchpad mechanism. The first DAO to hold a token auction was Quantum Biology DAO, whose auction ended on December 17 and was extremely hot, with the opening price exceeding the original price by more than 10 times.

Long COVID Labs: Accelerates the recovery of over 100 million Long COVID patients. The founder is Rohan Dixit, a former Stanford neuroscientist, healthcare entrepreneur, and Long COVID survivor.

Quantum Biology DAO: Manufactures quantum microscopes to advance biological research. The founders are Clarice D. Aiello (MIT PhD, world-leading quantum biologist) and Geoff Anders (Executive Director of Leverage Research).

Curetopia (Rare Diseases): Unites families and patient communities to address rare diseases worth over $10,000. The founder is Ethan Perlstein, a Harvard PhD, entrepreneur, and Y-Combinator alumnus.

BIO Ecosystem Meme & AI DAOs

In addition to the serious research DAO organizations, the BIO team and community have also conducted interesting DeSci experiments outside of the DeSci DAOs, successfully bringing a lot of attention to the DeSci field.

RIF/URO

Pump.Science is a meme token platform launched by the BIO Protocol team at the Solana Breakpoint conference of Token 2049 this year, where players can buy meme tokens representing drugs and participate in predicting drug effects and trading experimental data. The recent surge of RIF/URO after DEVCON Bangkok was also the direct trigger for the DeSci field, which has been seen by the market as the leading speculative target in the DeSci field for a relatively long period of time.

DRUGS

DRUGS (Big Pharmai) is also known as the "little BIO", and is the "favorite son" of the BIO Protocol ecosystem. DRUGS aims to disrupt the monopolistic business model of traditional large pharmaceutical companies, and the project has received widespread support from the BIO ecosystem since its inception, including Pump Science, other BIO-related DeSci DAOs, and BIO co-founder Paul himself.

GIRLE/BABY

GIRLE and BABY are the AI DAO and meme tokens issued by AthenaDAO in the BIO ecosystem on the Solana DAOs.fun platform and Base chain respectively, both of which support scientific research in the field of women's fertility.

GIRLE aims to empower the future of fertility through AI and Web3 with tokens, and the team is currently conducting experiments related to peptide cell repair, testing the effects of peptides on cells, and will soon launch related experimental tokens. On its official website, you can also see the token holdings in the DAO treasury.

BIO Ecosystem IPT

IPT is the intellectual property token first created by the Molecule Catalyst platform, representing partial governance rights over the generated research IP. These tokens give holders the opportunity to directly participate in the development, decision-making and future direction of the research. Each BioDAO typically holds a portfolio of IP tokens representing the intellectual property related to the DAO's specific scientific research field. The most recognized IPTs are IPT VitaRNA and VITA-FAST developed and owned by VitaDAO.

IPT VitaRNA & VITA-FAST

VitaRNA is the IPT of Artan Bio, a gene therapy project that has raised over $300,000. Artan Bio is exploring promising gene therapy areas that may help address genetic factors associated with aging. The company's approach aims to develop potential therapies that may suppress mutations that lead to aging.

VITA-FAST is the IPT of the Viktor Korolchuk laboratory, which has also successfully raised over $300,000. VITA-FAST focuses on research into drugs that enhance autophagy, a natural "waste disposal" built into our body's cells that can eliminate unnecessary protein buildup.

OVARIA

OVARIA is an IPT launched by AthenaDAO in collaboration with Gero. Gero is a biotechnology company that uses artificial intelligence for target and drug discovery, and AthenaDAO has partnered with Gero to fundamentally change the treatment landscape for ovarian aging, providing therapeutic potential in the currently limited field. AthenaDAO will use their platform to identify up to 10 new targets for ovarian aging, with the potential to delay menopause and reduce its health-related consequences.

Competitors & Related meme

In addition to BIO-related targets, the ecological heat has also extended to other areas of DeSci.

RSC

Research Hub is a DeSci project founded by Coinbase CEO Brain Armstrong, with the mission of accelerating the pace of scientific research. By creating modern mobile and web applications, it allows people to conduct scientific research more efficiently.

On the ResearchHub platform, research papers are stored and grouped by research field in "hubs". Individual hubs essentially serve as on-site journals, with the most highly voted posts (i.e., papers and their associated abstracts and discussions) moving to the top of each hub.

Scihub

Scihub is inspired by Sci-hub, the world's largest free paper download center, which has faced legal issues due to its open-source nature and relies on donations to maintain the platform. 0xAA(@0xAA_Science) is the TOP1 holder of the token, currently holding 22% of the total tokens, and he stated that he will donate 20% of the tokens to the operators of SciHub, expressing his support for their cause and the development of the platform.

Currently, the BIO Protocol has announced its 2025 roadmap, including:

The BIO token will undergo a TGE on the Ethereum mainnet on January 3rd;

The BIO token will be listed on the Solana and Base networks;

The new BioDAO will be launched;

BIO/BioDAO liquidity pool;

The new BIO Launchpad will be officially launched.

With the listing of the BIO token on Binance, the DeSci field may once again see a new wave of enthusiasm.
