In episode 88, we’re excited to welcome Dr. Wojtek Sierocki, Founder & CEO of Data Lake, an EU-funded movement dedicated to creating a global Medical Data Donation system based on blockchain technology, and the world’s first consent-to-earn platform. We discuss why blockchain is such a powerful tool for improving medical data collection, their unique consent-to-earn incentive model, some of the most compelling decentralized science use cases, and much more.

--Three Key Takeaways--

Web3 is not indispensable and there are ways that medical data collection could be improved without Web3. However, blockchain enables for the creation of more open, efficient, trustworthy, and scalable innovations that allow for the incentivization of the community.
Where Web3 truly shines, is by turning innovations into community-driven movements, where community members, in this case patients and doctors, are equal participants who all benefit from the movement.
To achieve widescale adoption of any Web3 innovation, it’s important to make it as user friendly as possible. In the case of Data Lake, this includes making the consent process simple, and allowing users to claim their tokens without having to set up an on-chain wallet.
