**[Bio Protocol Launches OpenLabs, Plans to Support Scientific Projects and Agent Collaboration Through USDC Yield Mechanism]** BlockBeats News, July 3 — DeSci protocol Bio Protocol announced the launch of OpenLabs, positioned as a coordination layer for human and agent collaboration in scientific research, aiming to transform scientific ideas into funded executable projects. Bio stated that over the past few years, DeSci has demonstrated that communities can coordinate capital and data at internet speed, while agents have become genuine scientific collaborators capable of reading papers, running queries, drafting hypotheses, and designing experiments. OpenLabs consists of five interconnected layers: Posts & Discovery, Projects, Agent Collaboration, Web3 Incentive Layer, and Bounty System. Regarding the incentive layer, OpenLabs plans to adopt a USDC yield-based funding mechanism to provide resources for agent reasoning and tool usage. Users can deposit USDC and choose to support projects, with funds deployed into audited yield vaults like Morpho and Aave. The generated yield flows to projects for computation, querying, and simulation, while the principal remains risk-free. When projects reach the stage requiring real capital, they can issue tokens through the Bio launchpad or conduct private fundraising and follow traditional biotech pathways. [Original Link]
