Track, trade, and explore the entire IP token ecosystem - onchain, in real time

When we started building Molecule, we were driven by a simple yet powerful belief: scientific research deserves a new model, one that places discoveries in the commons, empowers researchers, and meaningfully engages global communities.
We believed blockchain technology could enable a new model for how scientific research is supported and stewarded, making breakthrough discoveries transparent, accessible, and scalable.That belief hasn’t changed, but the ecosystem has grown dramatically. Over the past two years, intellectual property (IP) tokens have evolved from theory to reality. We’ve seen DAO-led biotech funds take shape, early-stage projects tokenize their research, and entire scientific communities begin to organize around programmable IP. But navigating this emerging landscape has been difficult due to fragmented information and limited visibility. That’s about to change.
We’ve rebuilt Molecule from the ground up to serve as a discovery engine for tokenized scientific IP.
It’s a simple interface representing an emerging ecosystem. And it’s built not just for today, but ready to grow along DeSci itself.
Exploring scientific IP tokens should be as intuitive as browsing DeFi protocols or an NFT marketplace. That means making the ecosystem data visible, understandable, and actionable - not fragmented and buried in PDFs or block explorers. It means helping curious researchers become contributors, helping token holders become stewards, and helping scientific communities coordinate around shared incentives.
We’re starting simple: a clear map of the IP token ecosystem, updated in real-time, available to everyone. But we’re building toward much more.
We’re launching this as a public beta—open access, open feedback, open collaboration. Whether you already hold IP tokens or you're simply DeSci-curious, to shape the future of this platform. Start exploring .

IP (intellectual property) Tokens offer an open, permissionless, decentralized way to fund scientific research onchain – and then what?

Molecule’s original Science IP Token framework introduced a new primitive for science – a governance token linked directly to scientific IP.
Molecule is dedicated to advancing scientific research through democratized funding and the tokenization of intellectual property (IP). By transforming IP into liquid, onchain assets, Molecule aligns the incentives of researchers and funders, fostering a more collaborative and efficient research ecosystem.
