DeSci News and Research

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, the decentralized research platform Bio Protocol has launched the V1 version upgrade, based on Base and Solana chains. The core features include the BioDAO Launchpad, AI-driven BioAgents, and a new DAO milestone mechanism.The new system has shifted from the original screening accelerator to a fully on-chain project declaration and financing process, expanding the practical utility of the BIO token in governance, financing, and services, promoting the democratization of research in the DeSci field.

ChainCatcher news, BIO Protocol announced on social media that six new IP tokens are now live for trading, covering projects including: Alzheimer's (CLAW), industrial hemp fiber (HEMPY), ovarian aging (OVARIA), and low-temperature preservation (CRYORAT), among others.This launch is part of a series of significant advancements for BIO Protocol in recent times.
