what's PsyDAO?
PsyDAO is a decentralized autonomous organization focused on integrating blockchain technology with scientific research, particularly in psychedelics, longevity, and speculative biology. It operates as a community-driven platform where participants can engage in governance, funding experiments, and tokenizing scientific outcomes through meme coins and prediction markets. The project emphasizes open-source collaboration, allowing token holders to vote on initiatives like drug development trials and behavioral studies. At its core, PsyDAO leverages Ethereum-compatible chains such as Base for token launches and liquidity provision. It creates symbolic tokens representing experimental results, such as lifespan extension or movement metrics in longevity tests, enabling granular exposure without traditional financial instruments. Governance occurs via Discord and on-chain voting, shaping the DAO's direction toward innovative, boundary-pushing science. The ecosystem includes sub-projects like drug token experiments (e.g., LSD vs. Psilocin head-to-head studies), fostering a speculative yet educational environment. By tokenizing abstract scientific concepts, PsyDAO aims to democratize access to frontier research, blending crypto's decentralized ethos with empirical inquiry.
