What a ride! 🥶
CryoDAO has successfully closed a monumental ~$2.8M fundraise (1,108 ETH) on Juicebox!
CryoDAO's goal is to solve death by funding, incubating and advancing cryopreservation research 👉
🥶 CryoDAO is proud to lead the charge in moving cryopreservation forward.
#DeSci
💜 From organ cryopreservation all the way to whole-body cryopreservation, we can save countless lives.
🪄 Magic spotted in the CryoDAO Discord:
- Scientist joins the community and proposes a new project
- Immediate feedback from contributors who want this science advanced for themselves
- Open, democratic process to start to move the research forward
#DeSci
is the future. 🔮
