Consents – a cornerstone of medical research
At Data Lake we talk a lot about consents. It’s because we stand for more transparent and fair use of medical data for research. To achieve this, we focused on the first step in the process, that is building tools for recruiting patients and giving them control over their consents.
A patient consenting for a medical experiment or a retrospective study is one of the most basic processes in almost every human subject research. Yet, this process is surprisingly messy and lacks good tools for a large-scale adoption.
For this reason many healthcare institutions do not gather and analyze large quantities of medical data, for a simple lack of a good, scalable consent collection and management tool.
We think that unlocking consents is the key to unlocking medical research.
We want to grow this infrastructure as a sustainable, revenue-generating model for healthcare providers, to reach more patients, to be able to deliver more valuable research at the end of the pipeline.
Our playbook going forward
-
Launch the Mainnet
The Data Lake Chain Mainnet is set to launch on Monday, 30 September, marking the transition from our Mokotow Testnet to a fully functional mainnet. This is the first step in expanding our ecosystem to accommodate large-scale consent management and data operations. With this launch, the $LAKE token will become the fuel of the ecosystem, and bridging tokens to the mainnet will also be available.
-
Build our unique value proposition
Our strength as Data Lake lies with our deep connections with the healthcare industry, understanding its needs and limitations. In the subsequent months after the Chain launch, Data Lake will focus on growing the enterprise adoption of our infrastructure.
More healthcare clients using our chain leads to more nodes, more security, more usage of the network, more demand for the LAKE token.
The adoption in healthcare should also be a powerful argument for any DeSci builder to use the Data Lake Chain instead of other solutions.

Become a go-to ecosystem for health and science
Once the Data Lake Chain is established within the healthcare space, we will switch our focus from healthcare adoption to growing our presence in the web3 space, for example by conferences, hackathons, builder grants and more, in line with the Web3 Sustainability Loop.
Keep an Eye Out
With the support of our partners, including Arbitrum, and a growing ecosystem of institutions, researchers, and innovators, we are set to transform the way consent management is applied to save lives and advance science.
Stay tuned for the official launch of Data Lake Chain and join us as we build the future of decentralized science.
