The method may further include providing the first and second UIAM tokens and receiving a Ricardian contract with terms governing ownership rights for offspring. The Ricardian contract may be digitally executed and published on at least one blockchain. The method may further include minting a third UIAM token corresponding to a first offspring of the first and second genomic assets to the at least one blockchain. The third UIAM token may reflect the terms of the Ricardian contract and may evidence lineage of both the first and the second UIAM tokens.
