WHAT'S INCLUDED
WITH EVERY NFT?
WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING KIT
Your privacy, security, and trust are important to us.
How it works:
We send you the whole genome sequencing kit (can be sent anonymously to a PO box, workplace, etc.). You receive the kit, swab your cheek, then send it back to our HQ or directly to the lab (depending on your region). Nebula sequences your genome, then securely uploads it into your self-custody Genome Vault.
You got rugged on your genomic data if you've ever done a 23&Me or Ancestry test. These companies genotype your DNA, then they allow that data to be sold to other 3rd parties. When your data gets sold, you don't share in the upside. All the revenue generated from selling YOUR DNA goes to the shareholders of these companies, not you! Rugged!!
GENOME MINING VAULT
Bulletproof.
Powered by a mobile blockchain wallet, only you can control access to your vault, very much like a ledger or metamask wallet. This breakthrough in encryption technology enables you to truly have full custody over your entire genome. No one can access your DNA vault without your explicit permission - not even us.
Our vaults give you the ability to securely “mine your genome”. The GenomesDAO platform currently allows you to run ancestry and rare disease reports on your genome, we plan to add more reports over time. Additionally, you can safely monetize your genome to earn GENE tokens by accepting or rejecting genomic query requests from pharmaceutical companies or research organizations. By accepting a query, the answer to the query is executed inside the vault; your raw genomic data will never be exposed. As we like to say, “not your keys, not your genome.”
1:1 GENERATIVE ART (MADE FROM YOU)
An industry first, a new kind of NFT.
A generative, contemporary art piece quite literally made from you, immortalized forever on the blockchain. After you’ve vaulted your genome, we ask permission to take a few small queries of your genome as the mathematical inputs for this piece of generative art.
If a loved one gifted you an engraved piece of jewelry, would you ever sell it? This might disappoint the NFT flippers, but we don't care about the floor price. In fact, we want this to be the first NFT you never sell. Why? The inputs to create this NFT are generated from the same nitrogenous bases that make up your genetic code. We're hoping you keep this NFT forever and pass it on to your grandchildren as a family heirloom.
GENETICATS NFT
Meow.
Cats have super fun genomics. Did you know that only one in every 3,000 calico cats is born a male? Show that you're part of the GenomesDAO community with GenomesDAO’s first Cat NFT.
Each Geneticat is licensed under a CC0 license, meaning you can do whatever you want with it. Put it on a t-shirt, sell it, become the Cat, dominate the world– that’s all fair game.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Step 1
Mint the Geneticats NFT(this is the first NFT you get). Each NFT comes with a standard trait for redemption of a whole genome sequencing kit. Certain NFT’s will come with more than one redeemable trait, such as a GENE/GNOME airdrop.
Step 2
Redeem the trait for the sequencing kit through the EtherCards platform. Upon redemption, you are given a code that allows claiming your kit at genomes.io. Then, we send you the kit (this can be done more anonymously by using a PO box, workplace address, or somewhere else you would have the ability to receive packages).
Step 3
Activate both your kit and DNA vault at Genomes.io. When activating your vault, you are given a 12-word seed phrase. Please store your 12-word seed phrase in a safe location, similar to how you would store a metamask or ledger seed phrase.
Step 4
Send us your biological sample. We sequence your genome through one of our audited providers (results typically returned within 12 - 14 weeks).
Step 5
Utilize the platform! Ancestry, carrier status, and other reports are continually added to the platform. Use the vault to mine your genome!
Choose to accept or reject genomic queries from 3rd parties or pharmaceutical companies that pay you in GENE to anonymously query parts of your genome.
Step 6
Once your genome is vaulted, we also plan to give you a 1:1 generative art NFT derived from specific queries of your genome.

Your genome is vaulted under your self-custody. GenomesDAO platform gives genomic insights on (live now): carrier status, ancestry, and health risk. More tests added to the platform.
Private Mint (free) of 1:1 generative NFT based on queries from your genome (will occur later in the year).
