Black market pays about $1,000 for full human genomes. For size: your credit card info is worth between $10 and $50.

How do I contact this market? I have one full human genome for sale, $1000 will do just fine.

Google "i want to sell my genome."

You have to pay the broker, then the company also pays the broker. Great scam.

More likely, they'll get an average genome from many genomes and use that average genome to point to outlier genes correlated with genetic diseases, disease resistance, and traits. It's about cataloguing genetic code.
