DeSci Project StarChain Unifying 500 Terabytes of Astronomical Data Results in Major Milestone
“We are thrilled to announce that we have achieved our first major milestone by unifying 500 TB of astronomical data on our platform. This will allow astronomers to more easily analyze massive datasets and uncover meaningful insights.” said Dr. Meijer, Chief Scientific Officer of StarChain. “Our platform is revolutionizing scientific research by taking data that was previously scattered and bringing it together into one searchable, user-friendly location. Eliminating the need for tedious manual gathering and merging of data.”
Astronomers may now display data, perform sophisticated searches across several datasets, and apply analytics at a vast scope and scale using the unified DataStore. This will lead to strong, fresh insights into the birth of stars and galaxies, the expansion of the universe, the hunt for Earth-like exoplanets, and more.
“The response we’ve gotten from the science community has been astounding,” Dr. Meijer continued. “Researchers from all across the world have expressed their interest in joining our platform.” Only a select few independent researchers and members of Leiden University have received access to DataStore, but the company aims to roll out its initial public beta by Q1 2025.
Beginning in 2021, StarChain aims to break down data silos in science and accelerate research utilizing the new opportunities presented by blockchain and artificial intelligence. The corporation intends to expand its consolidated datastore to finally contain more than 10 petabytes (10 million GB) of data in several spheres of research. Additionally in development by StarChain is their unique neural-network-based data analysis tool, StarChain AI.
The team has initiated a presale of its native ecosystem token, STRC, to help finance the growth and implementation of StarChain. “Our project depends on a strong community; thus, we think it’s only fair that the community maintains ownership of the project, not random venture capitalists,” remarked Michael Lobrecht, CEO of StarChain. For StarChain, this seems to be working since they just revealed that they exceeded their objective by 400% by raising $100k within the first 24 hours of the presale.
The presale starts at $0.50 and works through 14 distinct pricing levels, ending at $0.63 per token. For Q4 of this year, STRC is scheduled to be listed on MEXC and Gate.io for $1.00.
