DNA Testing Boom

DNA Testing Boom

September 25, 2025

The advent of consumer DNA testing in the early 2000s, led by companies like AncestryDNA, 23andMe, and MyHeritage, has transformed genealogy. Over 40 million people have taken these tests by 2025, using autosomal DNA to uncover ethnic origins, migration patterns, and distant relatives. Tests cost between $59 and $199, and results can reveal surprises, like unexpected ethnicities or unknown cousins. This technology has democratized genealogy, allowing anyone with a saliva sample to explore their roots, though privacy concerns about data sharing persist.
