UPDATE:
I did an X Space with the IPAM Pump Science dev (note his microphone was very low quality, he should get it fixed for next time): https://x.com/indoleprop/status/1968810953480208677
After this the fly studies for IPAM were funded! So we have more lifespan data to look forward to.
Unsure mate. I’d say it would be at least 5%. There is no official standard amount this is all very new. I say just give it a go and get before/after photos!
Question for Rapamycin News community: We want the fly study to go as well as possible. We cannot do a dose response study. What ideas for the optimal dose do you have?
I’ve also contacted Burkhard for insight but I want more perspectives.
Congrats! How does it work: people just buy the token to fund the study? A % of the AUM goes to the funding? Do people get something in return or is it just a meme coin / gun way of donating?
People buy the token either to support the molecule, or to profit, or both. They might support the dev behind the token, which is a big part of what is driving Rapamycin Longevity Lab’s tokens.
A % of the trading fees goes towards funding the studies. It’s probably the best use case for a crypto I’ve seen outside of directly using it as a currency.
Very nice. How much of the trading fees goes to the project? How much was needed to fund the fly study?
Thanks.
Once the market cap his 303 SOL, 3 SOL is used to fund the experiment: where do these 3 SOL come from? For other experiments it’s just the trading fees that fund it? So it’s purely a meme coin?
Your screenshot gives $6.5k for a fly experiment and $50k for mice. Meanwhile this page (“Read Docs” link: welcome to pump.science | pump.science docs ) gives $1.5k for flies and $7k for mice. Which one is correct @Krister_Kauppi?
Good eyes, @adssx! I think this is not valid data anymore because pump.science has switched labs who conduct the experiments. If I remember it correctly the experiments costs are as follows 500$ worms, 1500$ flies and 7000$ for mice but then there are additional costs when it comes to mice depending on what experiments that the dev team wants to do.
@AustraliaLongevity can you point out to pump.science that the page you refered to has not correct data around cost of the experiments?
Good point. I thought it didn’t look right. This is why I’ve always not been sure if experiments have been funded despite people saying they have been.
