Molecule, a leader in decentralized science (DeSci) and a pioneer in tokenized intellectual property (IP), is thrilled to announce its strategic partnership with CryoDAO, a decentralized collective dedicated to funding high-impact research to advance cryopreservation techniques. 

Working on the bleeding edge of scientific innovation, CryoDAO’s mandate is to make death optional. We will be working together to further their mission, bringing cryopreservation research projects to the DeSci community utilizing Molecule IP tokens: IP-NFTs and IPTs.  

Powered by Molecule IP Tokens 

Molecule IP tokens transform the management of scientific IP through tokenization:

  • Intellectual Property NFTs (IP-NFTs): IP-NFTs are non-fungible tokens that register scientific IP onchain. IP-NFTs provide a secure, immutable record of scientific IP ownership and rights, enabling easy IP transfer, verification, and management.
  • Intellectual Property Tokens (IPTs): IPTs are fungible tokens that distribute the IP rights associated with a particular IP-NFT, decentralizing its scientific process by enabling globally distributed governance of it and transforming the way scientists engage with their online communities.  

Molecule IP-NFTs and IPTs empower CryoDAO to accelerate the pace of cryopreservation research and funding by bringing scientific IP onchain.  

Combining Biotech Dealflow Expertise

Working closely with the CryoDAO scientific research dealflow team, Molecule’s biotech team will aid in experimental planning, IP strategy, and negotiation, leveraging an existing partnership with Nucleate

Together, CryoDAO and Molecule will build a pipeline of groundbreaking cryopreservation research projects and tokenize them.  

Growing Onchain IP Through Cryopreservation

This collaboration marks an important step towards a more vibrant and innovative DeSci ecosystem, leveraging the strengths of both organizations to make a meaningful impact. To stay up to date on the partnership, follow Molecule on X or sign up for our newsletter. 

"We are thrilled to enter into this cool partnership with CryoDAO, which accelerates our vision of tokenizing scientific IP, enabling new sources of capital to fund valuable, underfunded research areas like cryonics. We believe that DeSci has the opportunity to make crypto a force for enabling researchers to work on humanity’s biggest problems and for communities to bring discoveries to life that would never have existed otherwise. We are excited to charge the chilling growth of the CryoDAO community to make cryonics a reality and make taxes the only guarantee in life." Benji Leibowitz, COO at Molecule
Together with Molecule, CryoDAO will push the boundaries of decentralized science, tokenizing the most important research in the world—research that will save our very lives. By calling on a global community to advance this science, we have an opportunity to change the course of human history forever. This partnership is an important first step.”  Kai Micah Mills, co-founder of CryoDAO.

About Molecule

Molecule is dedicated to advancing scientific research through permissionless funding and the tokenization of intellectual property (IP). By transforming scientific IP into a liquid onchain asset, Molecule aligns the incentives of researchers and funders, fostering a more collaborative and efficient research ecosystem. 

About CryoDAO

CryoDAO envisions a world where organs and tissues preserved in vast biobanks are available to patients on demand, where journeys to distant stars become journeys in slumber, and where even life can be frozen in time. CryoDAO funds research projects that have a high potential to increase the quality and capabilities of cryopreservation.
