RE: Shivom – an essential step of medicine in the future

in #news6 years ago

I dont think this is a good project. I saw someone else promoting it as well and think this is doomed to start with.

Firstly, anonymous dna samples can be collectes easily anywhere human being inhabit. When i get a hair cut, i leave sample of my dna at the salon, when i eat at a restaurant, i leave my dna there and so does everyone else. So no one in the world should have any problem collecting dna samples globally.

Second, someone mentioned that data will be stored securely on a decentralized blockchain. When i dont care about leaving my dna everywhere, why will i care about its security?

Third, why will someone give me a dna report for free when they are the ones who have done some work to make that report. According to you, not only will they pay me for my dna sample, but also analyse it and provide free analysis of the day. How does the medical research company make money.

Fourth, most medical research is funded by companiea because they can then sell the drug for money. This requires investment. Dna is a very small part of that. Running the lab for a number of years, test equipment, salaries. I dont see any information on the business model of shivom or the medical companies using shivom to assess the success rate of this project.
