Genomes stored forever on the Blockchain

Deciphering the Essence of deGenom's Collections: A Convergence of Genomics and Blockchain

The era of information has dawned upon us with an emphasis on the preservation of crucial data. Among such significant data lies the genomic code, the very essence of life. To guarantee its longevity, deGenom has implemented a unique approach by employing a combination of lossless, referential compression techniques followed by pixelation of the genomic code.

Why Pixelate Genomic Data?

Pixelation transforms the complexity of genomic data into versatile images, making it suitable for various platforms, including blockchains. By leveraging the permanence and security of blockchain technology, pixelated genomic codes are stored immutably. This ensures that the data remains intact and accessible for generations, preserving the core vision of deGenom: to safeguard and make essential genetic information universally accessible.

Dual Storage for Genomic Data

Primary Storage: Arweave

All compressed genomic sequences are primarily stored on the Arweave Protocol, ensuring decentralized and permanent data preservation.

Secondary Storage: Bitcoin Ordinals

To add an extra layer of security, significant genomic sequences are inscribed as Ordinals on the Bitcoin blockchain. This dual-storage system combines Arweave’s decentralized architecture with Bitcoin’s unparalleled immutability.

Exclusive Access Through deGenom Application

While Bitcoin Digits owners won’t receive genomic data drops, they will enjoy exclusive access to certain features within the deGenom application that are unavailable to others. These features represent unique utilities that reward early adopters and participants in the Bitcoin Digits collection.

Introducing the $DEGENOM Token

The $DEGENOM token will be launched on the Base blockchain, designed to power the entire deGenom ecosystem. Token holders will gain access to decentralized applications and key utilities within the deGenom project. Beyond exclusive access, $DEGENOM will serve as the core currency for engaging with services tied to genomic data, longevity, and healing research.

Earning Through Participation

In addition to token utilities, users can collect points within the deGenom application by participating in challenges and activities. These points contribute to leaderboard rankings, which determine eligibility for rewards from the treasury. High-ranking users can also mint special NFTs with valuable utilities linked to deGenom’s focus areas: Eternity, Healing, and Longevity.

Join the Future of Genomics and Blockchain

deGenom represents a paradigm shift in genomic data storage, combining the strengths of Arweave and Bitcoin Ordinals for unparalleled security and accessibility. With $DEGENOM tokens and exclusive app utilities, deGenom bridges the gap between cutting-edge genetics and blockchain innovation, empowering individuals to actively shape the future of genetic data preservation.
