LAKE.fun x MedMetrix: 6000+ Visitors, 601 Participants, 26 Research Contributors – Project Completed!

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

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
