DBDAO.xyz was founded by Michael Fischer, who discussed using decentralized databases to advance scientific research and tokenize scientific articles in a podcast published in early 2023. The protocol's architecture centers on database governance through a Gnosis multisig, rows represented as ERC-721 NFTs, incentives paid in USDC, data resolution on IPFS, encrypted columns via Lit Protocol, and compatibility with Prisma. Zero-knowledge proofs are described as the intended mechanism for verifying database queries, and contributors are rewarded in USDC when a database monetizes.
DBDAO.xyz was selected for the Fall 2022 CoinList Seed cohort, and has presented at DeSci NYC meetups focused on decentralized science and scientific discovery. The project has received backing from Polychain Capital, Blizzard Fund, and dao5.
