- Ocean Protocol is a decentralised data exchange protocol that enables the secure sharing and monetisation of data and services for artificial intelligence (AI). Launched by the Ocean Protocol Foundation, it aims to democratise access to AI technology by creating a data economy where data providers and consumers can transact with transparency and security. Ocean Protocol utilises blockchain technology to enforce data access control, integrating tools like service agreements and tokens to incentivise data sharing. It also supports privacy-preserving computations, ensuring data privacy while harnessing its value.
