The signature of Star Trek producer Gene Roddenberry has gone boldly where no nonfungible token (NFT) has gone before — into the code for life itself.
Back in 1965, Roddenberry signed a contract with Lucille Ball’s Desilu Productions to finance Star Trek. On Tuesday, that signature was turned into an NFT and implanted into the DNA code of a living bacteria cell — 30 years after the sci-fi legend’s death.
