How the new LAKE distribution looks like after our Burn of 66% of the total supply!

How the new LAKE distribution looks like after our Burn of 66% of the total supply graphics Data Lake

The Data Lake team made a significant announcement on August 23rd, 2023, revealing the successful execution of a substantial burn, which accounted for 66.67% of the total supply, with most of the initial allocations subject to either a partial or a total burn.

The token burn served three main purposes:

  1. Eliminating surplus: Our token burn effectively removed what we considered to be an unnecessary surplus of $LAKE tokens, achieving a permanent reduction in the token’s supply.

  2. Enhancing intrinsic value: Our long-term strategy revolves around increasing the token’s value through its utility, rather than distributing it for free. Consequently, we eliminated the allocations intended for airdrops and affiliation programs, concentrating on fundamental, utility-driven value creation.

  3. Adjusting token distribution: The burn aligned with our broader strategic vision to make the market the only place to purchase $LAKE tokens from.

A fresh distribution

This substantial token burn inevitably established a fresh distribution for $LAKE. Without further ado, here’s how the new $LAKE distribution looks like after the burn:

While we discussed the reasoning behind the burn of each allocation in the article dedicated to the burn linked above, let’s now focus on what are the consequences of than maneuver.

After holding regular consultations with hospitals, data donors, holders, data controllers, private firms and researchers, our team obtained a new maturity of the medical data market and of the role we play in it. The new distribution is a reflection of these changes.

The current token holders are probably the party that is affected the most by the changes, as their allocation over the total supplied has tripled overnight. Moreover, as we understand the need for a higher liquidity for LAKE, the allocations dedicated to the Liquidity Pool and to Liquidity Providers Incentives jointly increased from 13% to 35% over the total supply. Such move goes hand in hand with the new program rewarding those who provide liquidity for the $LAKE token on the DEX- click here to learn more!.

These changes reflect our commitment to adaptability and our dedication to providing value to our community and partners. As we move forward, the revamped distribution will pave the way for a more robust and dynamic Data Lake ecosystem. We’re excited about the opportunities that lie ahead and look forward to continued growth and innovation in this ever-evolving space.

From Protocol to People: Data Lake’s Community Chapter 🌊

Since day one, Data Lake has been about more than technology. It has been about trust, transparency, and empowering people to take an active role in shaping the future of science. We built the Data Lake Application on Arbitrum so that every patient consent is stored on-chain with a complete audit trail – a level of accountability rarely seen in healthcare. We launched LAKE.fun, the world’s first fully decentralized patient recruitment platform, where people around the globe can contribute to research projects and get rewarded transparently in $LAKE. We ran Snapshot votes to ensure that key decisions, like research reward pools, were made by the community. And we even launched a marketing bounty program, proving that our growth belongs to everyone, not just the core team. This foundation has always been about decentralization. About people. About you. 🔓 Open-Sourcing Our Smart Contracts We believe that true trust requires open infrastructure. That’s why we are open-sourcing our consents smart contracts under the Digital Public Good (DPG) framework. The DPG framework, developed by the UN and international partners, is a global standard that recognizes technologies which: ✅ Are open source ✅ Protect privacy ✅ Advance the UN Sustainable Development Goals ✅ Can

Data Lake Study Published in Diagnostics: Proving the Power of Data Donation

Big milestone for the Data Lake: our study has just been published in the peer-reviewed journal Diagnostics 🎉 The study — “Analyzing the Gaps in Breast Cancer Diagnostics in Poland—A Retrospective Observational Study in the Data Donation Model” — is one of the first peer-reviewed proofs of how patient-driven data donation can be used to uncover real-world healthcare challenges. 587 breast cancer cases analyzed  Patient data voluntarily donated to power the research  Key finding: while first oncology consultations were timely, delays of 3+ months emerged before surgery and treatment, revealing systemic gaps  In short: patients shared their data → researchers with the help of Data Lake mapped delays → policymakers now have evidence to fix bottlenecks.   Why It Matters for Data Lake 🌊 This is more than an academic milestone. It’s validation of the data donation model we’ve been building since day one, where we proven: Patients are willing to share their data for science, provided adequate safety and trust measures are in place. It’s possible to get access to large patient populations (20k+ data donors) working with decentralized science tools, outside of traditional academia and public research financing. Time for citizen scientists to shine! Real-world data studies can
