|
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.

### 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
|
|
|
|
 
|
|
|
|
<mark style="background:yellow;color:black">Medium risk</mark>
|
|
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.
