Data tokenization is the process of converting data of any sort into tokens that can be securely transferred without revealing the original data. Datatokens are a new Web3-native asset class, finding no equivalent in the traditional world where the technical access conditions of intellectual property (IP) are embedded into its asset form. These data stores may be collectivized with many user inputs, as in data cooperatives. IP-NFTs are an increasingly popular token model implemented in the decentralized science community, having already proven their usefulness as investment instruments in the biotechnology and longevity sectors. With the development of new biodiversity monitoring technologies such as eDNA sequencing, real "banks of genetic codes" are possible.
