"Data - when openly, transparently exploited, can be extremely powerful and valuable."

Ocean founder @BrucePon discussed how the confluence of #blockchain, #AI, and #data can kickstart the New Data Economy at the #GitexGlobal conference at @Dubai today 🌊
Highlights below!

Today, the world’s leading companies are data-centric, and currently, up to 90% of a company’s value relies on its data and IP. The key to unlocking this is blockchain technology which allows for secure provenance of data. However, there are barriers to its monetization.

Right now, there is a disconnect between data consumers and providers of data. With the lack of incentive to share, a valuable resource for our knowledge economy is under-utilized. Ocean’s works to allow for the sharing and monetization of data in a privacy-preserving fashion.

PARTNERSHIP| Ocean has entered into a strategic partnership with @fractalprtcl, an open-source zero-margin protocol for data exchange. The partnership will focus on kickstarting identity verification in the #OceanMarket.

By combining Fractal's Protocol-based Data Provisioning Incentivization with Ocean’s privacy-preserving Compute-to-Data feature and Ocean Market for data, users can take ownership of their data and monetize it themselves.

Details below!

Problems to solve: In a nutshell, the @MGH_DAO will leverage its community to curate the creation of different datasets revolving around metaverse NFTs that are then published on the #OceanMarket.

Grant Deliverables: Among others, it aims to create a datapool with data from the Sandbox virtual real estate market which will be updated weekly.

Oceaners! 🌊 Do you want to take a deep dive into data-sharing architectures and the technical tools governing their functioning? The Gaia-X updated architecture is out with some nice surprises👇

https://t.co/Fb1UhJqJNT

While describing the Gaia-X model, the document also features concepts crucial to the #Web3 economy like #decentralization, dlt, DAOs, token usage in #data infrastructures, and tools like trust frameworks that enable secure service offerings.

Ocean’s vision for a #newdataeconomy is closely aligned with Gaia-X and both organizations share a long-standing collaboration to advance the future of data sovereignty. How about you see what we’re building together for yourself?👇#theyearofscaling

@OceanDAO_ Updates:

(1) OceanDAO Stewards are being introduced
(2) Quadratic Voting will not be deployed for Round 11

Join the OceanDAO Governance Evolution Call today @ 4PM GMT and share your ideas on how to further grow the program: https://t.co/OewXheNYLP https://t.co/yFc0sBNcH9

(1) Nurturing the growing community of our monthly grants program is a core pillar. Thus, as of Round 11 we are introducing OceanDAO Stewards, who will meet with grantees before the proposal deadline, to provide guidance towards ROI > 1. Stewards will also be in charge with vetting teams to be eligible for higher-level rewards. A >50% vote by all stewards in multisig is needed to access the higher funds.

(2) Quadratic Voting remains a key deliverable for @OceanDAO_, however we will continue working and improving it, to avoid the following:

- Sybil attack
- An orchestrated attack
- Become a central authority in grant-voting outcomes
- Fracture voter & grantee participation
