At Data Lake, we’re on a mission to revolutionize the way decentralized science (DeSci), healthcare, and AI intersect through our blockchain-based ecosystem.
On April 15th 2024 Data Lake announced its ambitious plans to launch the Data Lake Chain, a rollup, L3 network, built on top of Arbitrum, that could redefine the intersection of blockchain, healthcare, science, and AI. Since then, we’ve launched our testnet which saw a tremendous adoption and usage, with more than 3.200.000 transactions processed and more than 100 smart contracts deployed.
Now, we are pleased to announce an official launch of the Data Lake Chain Mainnet on Monday, September 30th, 2024.
Launch Details
The Data Lake Chain Mainnet is scheduled to launch on Monday, 30 September. With the launch, the existing Mokotow Testnet will be retired, and the chain will halt at midnight the previous day. Users should expect minimal changes in how they interact with the chain—except that the real $LAKE token will now be the fuel for transactions. Additionally, bridging tokens to the mainnet will be available, ensuring a smooth transition for existing users.
REMEMBER: There will be no migration of the token. Our ERC20 token on the Ethereum Mainnet won’t be changing, liquidity will stay on Uniswap and trading will continue as usual. There is no action needed from your side.
The Data Lake Ecosystem is designed to address the critical need for scalability, security, and compliance in healthcare and scientific research. Here’s how it works:
- Blockchain-Powered Consent Management: Institutions and researchers can collect, store, and manage patient consents using blockchain technology, ensuring transparency and auditability at every step. The Data Lake Application is built on top of our Chain for fast, low-cost transactions, making it ideal for managing millions of patient consents daily.
- DeSci at Its Core: Data Lake is pioneering the DeSci movement by creating a blockchain suited for healthcare and research. Institutions can run their own nodes on the Data Lake Chain, giving them complete control over their data while ensuring compliance with regulations.
- Powered by $LAKE Token: The $LAKE token is the fuel of the ecosystem. It powers every transaction on the chain and incentivizes institutions and researchers to participate in the network. Whether it’s deploying a smart contract, managing consents, or creating a patient registry with us through Data Lake Registries, $LAKE ensures that the entire system runs smoothly and efficiently.
- Built on Arbitrum: Thanks to a grant from the Arbitrum Foundation, Data Lake is integrated into the Arbitrum ecosystem. The grant allows us to scale further, with support distributed as we hit key milestones—like launching the Data Lake Chain and enabling full functionality for research projects.
Powered by Arbitrum
In recognition of its vision, Data Lake was awarded a grant from the Arbitrum Foundation, cementing the Foundation’s confidence in Data Lake’s ability to build a go-to rollup solution for healthcare and DeSci. The grant will be disbursed as Data Lake achieves key milestones, such as the launch of the Data Lake Chain Mainnet and the deployment of its infrastructure.
This partnership underscores Data Lake’s commitment to building a blockchain tailored to the needs of healthcare and decentralized science on the Arbitrum ecosystem. As demand for scalable data solutions grows, Data Lake Chain aims to provide an industry-leading platform to manage data securely and efficiently.
