Consider this: "opening data" from the centralized silos into which its value is currently concentrated into the transparent, permissionless coalitions from which data economies can materialize.

5. About
Ocean

6. Ocean makes it easy to build
data commons + data marketplaces
Data market DM
Analytics &
data science tools
DM DM DM
Analysts & Data scientists
With problems to solve
Enterprises, govts, NGOs
With data & compute
Substrate for data economy
Data commons

7. Ocean is like Øx, but for data not tokens
The heart is data access control

8. On Ocean Tech
• Public EVM network, running Parity POA
• But with access control on data itself
• (Roadmap to Permissionless)
• TokenBridge to Ethereum mainnet
• “Squid” = SDKs in Python, JS, Java. REST API (alpha)

9. All Ocean Code is Open
github.com/oceanprotocol

10. Ocean Commons: Open Data on an Open Substrate
commons.oceanprotocol.com

11. Ocean MantaRay: Data Science on Hosted Jupyter Notebooks
datascience.oceanprotocol.com

12. Ocean Will Transform Data Custody
• “Not your keys, not your data”
• Data custody is now in the hands of the data owner
• Each govt entity, each company, each individual has a “data
wallet”.
• We can use existing token wallet infrastructure.
• Therefore inherit the benefits of token wallets
• Data custody = like token custody (sw wallets, hw wallets, etc)
• Transfer data access = like transferring tokens
• Data security = like token security (bank-grade by default)

28. What type of data marketplace could you build?
Marketplace for
supply chain data
Marketplace for
energy data
Fork Ocean
Commons, add a
killer feature
Bundle datasets into
dataset portfolios
(Set Protocol * Ocean)
Marketplace
for synthetic
data
Market with built-in
data exploration
Fork an existing token
exchange, twist it for data
exchange
Price data
with
channel
auctions
Marketplace
with DAO-
driven data
labeling
Price data with
bonding curves
Marketplace for low-
liquidity datasets
Via e.g. n-token automated
market maker
(think Balancer)

29. Getting started on marketplaces

34. What sort of Wild Card could you build?
Data as collateral
E.g. demonstrate
datasets could fit in
multi-collateral DAI
An Ocean block explorer
with integrated dataset
visualization e.g.
with MetabaseContinuously Fungible Data Assets
E.g. take an NFT-ized dataset, and
wrap it with a bonding curve (“make
re-fungible”).
A Data Wallet
E.g. take an Ocean dataset and
wrap with NFT; then integrate
with an NFT wallet
On-chain evolution of EVM bytecode
An ArtDAO, e.g.
extend
Simondlr’s
Artonomous
https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/data-economy-challenge-wild-card-e3593e15a971
Limited-Edition Fungible Data Assets
E.g. take an NFT-ized dataset, and
wrap it with a simple ERC20 contract.
