*What would be a great coin name used for paying DNA analysis and synthethesis - Looking forward to your suggestions* I am thinking about a DApp for Ethereum https://ethereum.org There are certain aspects my CytoComp project where I see solutions in Bitcoin 2.0 / BlockChain technology. DNA sequencing and synthesis plays a central role in synthetic biology. One problem is the secure sharing and analysis of DNA data. It is possible to track the identity of a person from shared DNA sequences without an identifier sciencemag.org/content/339/6117/321.abstract. As genomics play an increasingly important role in modern medicine, this is a major problem. DNA data are highly sensitive and sequencing information has a huge potential for misuse. I think it is possible to use BlockChain technology to securely share these kind of data P2P. Moreover, DNA data are huge files and will in the future need increasing computing power to be rapidly analyzed. The design of DNA sequences might also sometimes need larger computing power. I see the option to chop up these large DNA data files and analyze these parts by utilizing secure multiparty computing. I think platforms like Ethereum are well suited to build a secure DNA analysis app. A token, specific coin would be great to use in this system in order to pay for expenses. Thus as a starting point, please share your thoughts and suggest a name. BTW if anybody is interested to join such a project - let me know.
