Ocean Founder @trentmc0 recently contributed to @jacquesludik's new book "Democratizing AI to Benefit Everyone."

"As distributed ledger technologies have a key role to play in the decentralized AI-driven user-controlled super platform stack, I believe technology such as Ocean Protocol should be more widely adopted." – @jacquesludik (@CortexGroupAI)

OCEAN ROADMAP | We’re excited to share our updated 2021 roadmap, based on Q1 progress and learnings. Our guiding principle remains around driving traction & usage of Ocean.

In Q1 we successfully shipped:

• Fixed gas costs via Polygon deployment
• Faster Ocean Market w/ fewer bugs
• Better dev onboarding [new]
• Streamlined OceanDAO flow
• Toggle Pricing [Q2→Q1]

Compute-to-Data in Ocean Market was for Q1 & is about to launch. Stay tuned!


Q2 focus is on permissioning & flexibility:

• Permissioning in 3rd Party Markets [Q3→Q2]
• Contracts flexibility incl. NFTs (v4) [new]
• Frontend flexibility incl. OCEAN-backed stablecoin in Ocean Market [partly new]
• Improved multi-chain support
• Refine Compute-to-Data


In Q3 we’re planning the following:

• Better Staking / IDOs [Q4→Q3]
• More Data Services: e.g. WebSockets
• Data Farming: 1st deployment [Q2→Q3]
• Refinement of Compute-to-Data & more


In Q4 we’ll end the year with:

• Ramping up Data Farming
• Trustless & convenient URLs in Ocean Market
• More Data Services
• Refinement

That's the updates to the roadmap! We have added several deliverables, and are hard at work on our Q2 targets. Our guiding principle for 2021 remains traction/usage of Ocean.
