What You Need To Know About Ocean Protocol
Ocean is an open-source protocol for exchanging and monetizing data and data-based services between enterprises and individuals. The Ocean protocol, which is built on top of the Ethereum blockchain, uses ‘datatokens’ to control access to data sets. Users that require access to the information can then redeem the tokens. Ocean wants to make the data available on its platform available to entrepreneurs and researchers without leaving the data in the hands of the people who keep it. Ocean’s software is designed to promote data interchange by connecting users who require data but lack the resources to keep it with those who have. Providers are rewarded with OCEAN, Ocean’s native cryptocurrency, in exchange for their efforts.
