Going Deep with Desci Pioneers Data Lake

Plus: what Blur developer Pacman did next

⏱️ 730 words. Under 7 minutes reading time.

Hello Team,

We’ve had some conversations this week that we can’t wait to share with you.

They include chats with top-tier DePIN projects Natix and Io.Net, as well as Singularity CEO Marcello Mari - a Bionic advisor.

📺️ The videos will all be dropping this coming week.

One thing’s for sure, the acceleration of decentralized projects across sectors is pretty wild right now.

Keep a look out for them and let us know what you think.

Plus we’re also now live over at TikTok, so see you there

Let’s keep moving forward ⏩️ 

We had the pleasure of welcoming Wojciech Sierocki, the CEO of Data Lake, onto our latest Project Spotlight.

Data Lake solves the problem of patient consent and recruitment for scientific trials by using blockchain technology to make the process more efficient, transparent, and trusted.

The platform allows researchers to set up inclusion and exclusion criteria, manage patient consent, and incentivize doctors and patients to participate in research.

Data Lake is currently working with two major pharmaceutical companies and has launched its platform publicly for researchers to use.

🌶️ But, here’s the bits that made the chat stand out.

Evolution not Revolution. DeSci should not aim to create a parallel healthcare system. Instead the objective should be to enhance existing infrastructure, medical and scientific resources and talent in order to optimise and accelerate innovation.

Medicine is going through a crisis of trust. People sometimes trust TikTok influencers and others over medical and scientific professionals. Blockchain technology and DeSci has a part to play in solving this complex situation.

Money doesn’t solve everything. Wojciech points out that for many patients, solving their medical problem was the only thing that really mattered.

Thanks for coming on Wojciech! 🙏

You guessed it, it’s the last one who dropped in on Bankless to talk about Blast, their new L2 project.

We watched it.

Can confirm it’s worth paying attention to 👀 

Why build a new L2?

Blast is designed to maximize value for both developers and users by integrating native yield directly into its ecosystem.

This innovative approach not only enhances user earnings by default but also unlocks new business models and applications previously unfeasible in the Web3 domain.

What problem does Blast solve?

  • Native Yield Integration: Blast introduces native yield for assets, removing the opportunity cost typically associated with staking or engaging in DeFi activities.

  • Business Model Innovation: Enables new business models by allowing dApps to monetize through native yield rather than traditional methods like transaction fees.

  • Enhanced User Earnings: By default, users earn yield on their assets, increasing the intrinsic value and utility of holding assets on Blast.

  • Developer Incentives: Offers a unique proposition for developers by redistributing net gas revenue, encouraging innovative dApp development.

  • Efficiency and Compatibility: Maintains EVM compatibility while innovating on the technical front to support native yield, ensuring ease of adoption for existing Ethereum-based projects.

The Wrap Up

Blast not only challenges existing economic models within the blockchain space by embedding yield directly into the protocol but also opens up a realm of possibilities for dApp developers and users.

This approach could significantly lower the barrier to entry for users to earn from their assets and inspire a new wave of innovative applications, making it a pivotal moment for the evolution of decentralized finance and blockchain utility.
