Cryptocurrency

[Michigan Swamp Buck]

There is a website on the internet where you can create an NFT token from your DNA - for a price. I've never seen the value of it, though. If I want to prove ownership of my own DNA, they can just run a test on me - I'm the only person on this planet, or who has EVER been on this planet, that carries this DNA in my body. If that's not proof enough of ownership, I dunno what would be!

.

That's the only method of copyrighting my DNA I ever heard of. I thought my DNA was claimed by whoever wanted it, like communist China. Still, no money unless you sell it or sue people using without paying for it.

Unfortunately, the Chinese do not exhibit a great deal of respect for copyrights - just as Microsoft, or nearly any movie distributors. I also somehow doubt my copyright claims would prevail in a Chinese court, so no luck there, either.

Which brings me back to the question of why create an MFT of my DNA, where it would be on a blockchain and therefore subject to summary and random seizure by any government or corporation that wanted it for whatever purpose...

.

Well, if they want to copy it, they will have to add to the block chain and pay me royalties. Plus, my DNA code will be divided up into individual tokens that would have to be purchased and reassembled in the proper order. So, first come, first served, if they want the complete sequence. 

Then, once purchased, it can be sold to the next guy on the open market who can play with it for a while before selling again. In a way, you could become super wealthy and immortal if your DNA tokens take off on the open market. If they remain low value and you get seller's remorse, you could buy your DNA tokens back off the market.

ETA: I such a damn pervert. Now I'm wondering if I can make tokens from my sperm cells. No cap on how many tokens I issue as long as I can continue to physically produce them. Keep them on ice and then token holders can redeem them. WTF?
