RE: Earning Cryptocurrency By Allowing Pharma Companies To Use Your DNA

[bitbulls]

The company is hoping to sequence your genome for less than $1,000 and then the data will be stored on the blockchain, which will give pharma companies an opportunity to use it.

Who pays the thousand bucks?

People who want to get their genomes sequenced through Nebula will pay with Nebula tokens, which will also be used by researchers and companies wanting to acquire that data. https://www.technologyreview.com/s/610221/this-new-company-wants-to-sequence-your-genome-and-let-you-share-it-on-a-blockchain/

You pay. It's an investment you make until you have a taker who pays.

I give them my DNA sequence and also pay $1000 for it? Get outta here.

Tokenomics is witnessing all kinds of crazy business models. This one conflicts with the "incentivized sharing" norm of sharonomics and less likely to receive adequate community traction.

the person who is interested in doing it has to pay them $1k in Nebula tokens👍
