Blockchain for biodiversity
It started in 2018 as a community currency that wanted to give scientists more liquidity to the barter that happens in every university. “The currency is the business”. But the friction to get a wallet and make a transaction with a token was to high. We were too early and we decided to pivot. Then it became a blockchain to leverage the Brazilian biodiversity law of 2015, one of the newest and best biodiversity access regulations under Nagoya in the world.
Genecoin featured in the Draper Academy of 2019 and in Starup Connect of 2020, with companies like Natura and BASF.
But we were too early and while the market sees the need for more transparency in the supply chain, it was not read for crowdfunding of innovation of the absolute transparency provided by a blockchain.
The team demobilized and went in different directions, but with the bitcoin and the blockchain in their hearts. Read our white-papers here, here and here
