Right now, pharma: ❌ Prioritizes managing diseases over curing them ❌ Spends 25x more on promoting drugs than discovery ❌ Engage in ever-greening to extend patent protection Innovation and progress struggle to thrive when all efforts focus on maintaining control.

As for researchers? Securing funding is a constant struggle. They spend up to 40% of their time chasing grants. That’s not innovation, that’s bureaucracy. We need a better way. One that realigns incentives to support researchers and fund innovative science👇

With IP-NFTs and IP tokens (IPTs), researchers have a new way to turn intellectual property into an incentive for collaboration and funding. Molecule turns IP into a tradable, shareable asset governed by the people who benefit most from the research.

How do IP-NFTs work? Think of it this way: IPNFTs own the core IP 🔹 IP can be held by a DAO, project, or researcher 🔹 Tokenized & tradable in liquid markets in the form of IPTs

How do IPTs work? 🧠 They are the fungible IP tokens of a project. 🔹 Governance tokens for an IP-NFT 🔹 They govern IP pools: shared sets of IP and R&D data 🔹 Multiple stakeholders can vote and control IP

Why is this important? 🔬 🔹 Enables open-source collaboration without losing commercial opportunity 🔹 Creates an arbitrage in biotech: more equity to patients & researchers = higher quality research at lower cost 🔹 Prioritizes effective cures over corporate profits
