Decentralized science (DeSci) platform Pump Science and Solana prediction market platform Hedgehog Markets jointly launched a special project RODeo on 1/8, allowing interested people to bet on the sports performance of laboratory rats on Hedgehog. The purpose is to study life-extending drugs and test the physical performance of experimental mice after receiving "life-extending drugs".
On-chain mouse endurance roller test gambling board opens, new breakthrough in life extension research
The RODeo project lasted for eight weeks and injected experimental mice with "life-extending drugs" and asked them to stand on a gradually accelerating roller tester to see how long they could last. The roller tester (Rotarod) is considered in the industry to be the standard for measuring animal exercise performance.
The experiment will also provide real-time images of the mice being tested, experimental data, and analysis of past results to help bettors predict while enhancing transparency and participation. Anyone interested can place bets from Solana’s prediction platform, Hedgehog Markets. What’s special is that all mice participating in the experiment will have their own names.

Pump.science has successfully conducted life-extending experiments on bugs and flying insects before, and this time it extended its research to experimental mice. Through the RODeo project, researchers hope to collect more data on the effects of life-extending compounds on athletic performance and health, and to support scientific research by involving more people.
RODeo Project: Life extension research combined with forecasting platform, new market model
Pump Science, a DeSci platform that focuses on drug tokenization and focuses on life extension research, aims to allow more people to participate in drug research, invest in potential compounds and benefit from them. The core model of Pump Science is to convert the intellectual property rights (IP) of drugs into tokens on the blockchain, allowing investors to trade for a specific drug without being forced to buy shares of the entire biotechnology company. .
This experiment is supported by the Solana Foundation, and the prediction market refers to the model of the well-known platform Polymarket. Polymarket had previously experienced a surge in trading volume during the U.S. presidential election, with cumulative trading volume exceeding $9 billion last year, and its single-month trading volume even soared to $2 billion in November.
The market potential of the prediction platform cannot be ignored, with transaction volume reaching US$2 billion in November last year.
As the co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik once praised Polymarket for really motivating people to predict the information that will appear in the future and try to reveal it as quickly as possible. In summary, combining on-chain scientific research with a prediction market platform is expected to become a market model with potential in the future.
