The Sei Foundation is in the process of placing its boldest DeSci bet yet.
Sei Foundation is officially exploring the acquisition of @23andMe to defend the genetic privacy of 15 million Americans and ensure their data is protected for generations to come.
We believe user data sovereignty is a matter of national security. When an American biotech pioneer faces bankruptcy, personal genomic data of millions becomes vulnerable to parties that may not share the same values of transparency and open access.
Our vision:
• Deploy 23andMe on Sei, the most performant blockchain built for web-scale applications.
• Return data ownership to users through encrypted, confidential transfers.
• Allow users to choose how their data is monetized and share in the revenue.
This isn't just about saving a company, it's about building a future where your most personal data remains yours to control.
We'll be sharing updates in the near future. Stay tuned for more updates.
Disclaimer: This is not financial advice, a solicitation, or an offer to invest in anything. This announcement represents an exploration of possibilities rather than a confirmed transaction. We believe in transparency throughout our process as we evaluate opportunities that align with our mission of advancing data sovereignty. Always conduct your own research (DYOR) when making decisions in this space. We look forward to sharing more updates as this potential initiative develops.
