Problem Statement
Problem: Scientific discoveries take too long to reach practical use for the average users, especially for those seeking personalized health solutions. Most insights are limited to scientists or biohackers, often inaccessible or irrelevant to everyday users. Public participation in scientific studies is low due to a lack of incentives, understanding, and engaging social features, leading to a shortage of diverse, high-quality data for innovation.Solution: Cat In A Box enables average users to:Participate in scientific studies with minimal cost and earn rewards in cryptoEngage in community-driven experiments (e.g., pharmacogenomics, nutrition, personalized healthcare).Own and control their health data while contributing to collective knowledge. And it allows BioDAOs/ DeSci communities to:Easily set up citizen science projects and recruit usersFoster transparent experimentation and data collectionPrivately store and analyze dataProduct Features:100% User-Owned Data: Health data encrypted and stored on-chain using Filecoins decentralized storage, under a single user wallet.User-Controlled Data Sharing:Users share specific data as needed (e.g., a single SNP for an experiment) and earn crypto rewards.Data processing occurs in TEE to ensure privacyIntuitive UX/UI built for Desci projects:Social login via Dynamic as individual user or community.DeSci organizations can seamlessly create experimentsAI agent assists users in understanding their participation and results.Social Engagement:Share results with friends, compare personal data to community dataLeaderboardScientist-lead Experimentation :Scientists can participate and guide experiment designs while maintaining anonymity.
Solution
Technical implementation:Filecoin and Lighthouse for encrypted and decentralized data storagePhala for TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) computation, used for partial data sharing and data aggregationDynamic wallet used for easy user onboardingDeployed on the Zircuit testnets (Main contract: https://explorer.testnet.zircuit.com/address/0x0074690aC91AbF6a5E2c1E410160582D92E6a2bE?activeTab=3 Token: https://explorer.testnet.zircuit.com/address/0x0AEB92fB117206D3ae314dFC442db6Bcd98b4309?activeTab=3)Deployed on Scroll testnet and verified on Blockscout (Main contract: https://scroll-sepolia.blockscout.com/address/0xb636c074c42F383EE418a3fFF57e07b67274730A Token: https://scroll-sepolia.blockscout.com/address/0xD6e4FC9f0Ab4407024d86D0349Acb3b9567BD0Bf)
