Ocean Protocol
title: Summary
collapse: open
The OCEAN Protocol is a marketplace for data, with a free-floating price for data packs depending on actual demand for this. Data can range for big data packs for marketing or computing purposes to more qualitatively curated datasets.
Data/Big data is entering the Blockchain world through that particular project.
style: number
Investment thesis
OCEAN Protocol aims at liberalising, facilitating and monetising the access to large datasets of any kind with a variety of user cases: training AI, feed corporate decision-making, scholar testing of hypotheses; in a era where data consumption is at its highest. The use case of the marketplace is therefore very appealing. The token is the utility token of the marketplace and will fluctuate with adoption/traffic. Holding the token may not be the best strategy in this and therefore upside price action potential may not be the most rewarding strategy.
Risk profile
Medium risk The token itself has little utility beyond powering the marketplace and therefore price action may be driven by investor sentiments and fluctuate widely.
Tokenomics
The OCEAN token powers the marketplace and will benefit from generated transactions and adoption. However, the token appears to be a simple currency mean and therefore may not hold an intrinsic value. Instead, token holders are encouraged to participate in liquidity pools between dataset-specific tokens and OCEAN to guarantee the liquidity of dataset-linked currencies and increase wealth through staking.
As described above, staking, which provides a utility to the marketplace, is encouraged.
