Binance Labs invests in BIO Protocol to revolutionize decentralized science

Source Cryptopolitan

Binance Labs, the crypto exchange’s venture capital arm, has invested in decentralized science (DeSci) by backing the BIO Protocol. This accelerator is designed to help early-stage scientific research startups access decentralized funding opportunities.

BIO Protocol expands its BioDAO network

BIO Protocol promotes a network of Biotech Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (BioDAOs), which form communities to fund, develop, and co-own innovative pharmaceuticals and therapies. According to Binance Labs, BioDAOs solve gaps in traditional funding for rare diseases, longevity research, and emergent health concerns.

The details of the investment’s exact amount were not disclosed, but it will enable BIO Protocol to grow its network by providing seed funding for new projects and strengthening community and tokenomics support. Binance Labs’ Investment Director Andy Chang commented:

“BIO Protocol represents a significant step forward in DeSci by merging biotechnology and DeFi. At Binance Labs, we are dedicated to unlocking groundbreaking advancements that drive long-term, real-world impact by supporting projects building meaningful technology.”

Binance Labs has more than 200 projects in its portfolio, most of which contribute to the development of decentralized finance. However, some involve gaming, artificial intelligence, and other sectors. For instance, Binance Labs supports Pluto Studio, which established the popular tap-to-earn Telegram mini-app Catizen.

Binance Labs and BIO Protocol to support IP-driven DAOs

BIO Protocol’s network of eight BioDAOs had a market capitalization of $200 million in November 2023. As co-founder of the Molecule platform, BIO Protocol’s Paul Kohlhaas introduced intellectual property non-fungible tokens (IP-NFTs). The protocol supports the sale of IP-NFTs.

One of BIO Protocol’s cornerstone projects, longevity-focused VitaDAO, was founded in 2021. In February 2023, it obtained $4.1 million in funding from pharmaceutical manufacturer Pfizer and supported the launch of Matrix Biosciences in October.

According to Binance Labs, the protocol’s next batch will feature projects to find a cure for Long COVID and rare diseases and build quantum microscopes to examine quantum biological processes.

Tesla jumps 5% as Barclays puts a $450 target on the SpaceX merger — the chart was already pointing to 431Tesla closed at $391.62 on October 26, up 5.21%, after Barclays upgraded the stock to Overweight and lifted its target to $450 from $370, citing a sharp inflection in Robotaxi miles and a potential SpaceX merger. The move also completed a double bottom at $345.88 and $349.33, with a neckline at $388.56 and a measured target of $431.24. Here is what the upgrade actually says, why the chart and the analyst now point the same way, and what would break the target.

Anthropic files for a $2 trillion IPO — the $80.7 billion loss is the decoy, the $450 billion compute bill is the riskAnthropic publicly filed its S-1 on October 26, revealing $16.29 billion of first-half revenue (+1,304% year over year) and a $80.7 billion net loss — of which $72.4 billion is a non-cash convertible-note charge. The real number is the $450 billion of signed, mostly non-cancelable compute commitments. Here is what the filing says, why NVDA, ARM and MU are the tradeable read-through, and the conditions that decide whether the AI trade passes its first public valuation test.

Brent's $115 front month sits $4.6 above January — the $14 spread to WTI is the supply-risk premiumDecember Brent trades at $115.29 while January is $110.71, a $4.58 backwardation. The December Brent-WTI spread is $14.2, versus a $3-5 normal. That gap, not the headline, is where the Middle East supply risk is priced. Here is what the curve says, why the December contract's expiry on October 30 will mechanically cut the headline by $4.6, and the 108.81 neckline that decides the next move.
