Heavy metal reduction within 2 years using trained fungi
Undiscovered mushrooms with potential therapeutic applications
Estimated potential annual value from undiscovered fungal compounds awaiting discovery
MycoDAO accelerates mycology by funding and developing decentralized technologies that unleash fungi’s potential across biotech, environmental restoration, and sustainable materials.
Fungi, encompassing mycelium and mushrooms, represent Earth's largest and one of its oldest biological kingdoms. They are vital to ecosystems: recycling nutrients, decomposing matter, and forming symbiotic plant relationships. Fungi sustain soil heal...
Transforming fungi into living biofactories to produce useful materials like bioactive compounds, enzymes, and biodegradable components. This includes modifying oyster mushrooms for pollutant breakdown, medical compound synthesis, and creating sustainable biomaterials.
Establishing modular, self-contained labs for fungal research, equipped with DNA sequencers, microscopes, and culture tools. These labs empower local communities, researchers, and citizen scientists to study, preserve, and utilize fungi for innovation and ecological restoration.
Supporting budding mycologists with $2,000 annual scholarships across 80+ societies under NAMA. This initiative promotes education, fieldwork, and research, fostering the next generation of fungal scientists to advance biodiversity preservation and sustainable practices.
MycoDAO captures value through a robust MYCO token ecosystem, enabling governance, staking, and incentivized participation. It tokenizes IP, such as DNA sequences and fungal strains, enabling fractional ownership and revenue from licensing agreements...
