The project completed several financing rounds, including two public offerings in August and November 2024 that raised $6.22 million and $4.74 million, respectively. In January 2025, the BIO token was listed on multiple major exchanges and is issued exclusively on the Ethereum mainnet. In April 2025, the project launched Bio V1—a protocol upgrade featuring a new Launchpad—to further enhance platform functionality. Recently, the team also proposed a plan for linear unlocking of team and advisor tokens, underscoring its commitment to long-term development.As biotechnology and blockchain technology become increasingly integrated, the development of BIO Protocol is expected to create new opportunities within the DeSci sector and promote more efficient allocation of research funding as well as accelerated technological innovation.
