Have you considered getting your DNA sequenced and storing that in a very robust medium?
Yes. I'm a member of 23andMe, although they don't do a full sequencing.
Sorry, I should be more clear. You think your DNA is going to be really helpful to a superintelligence bringing you back, then it would make sense to try and increase the chances it stays around. 23andMe is a step in this direction, but as full genome sequencing gets cheaper at some point you should probably do that too. It's alreadfy much cheaper than cryonics and in a few years should be cheaper by an even larger margin.
