Verifiable Compute Services within Ocean Protocol Network

Our main Network Launch is still a few months away, but that doesn’t mean you have to wait to check out what we’re building! If you plan to use Ocean for selling, sharing, buying or getting data (or data services), or even if you might write software to interact with Ocean, then you can already take a peek at our testnet and try it out today.

ICO end or still it not started? https://oceanprotocol.com/ this project website but no information including about ICO. I think team working to ready everything, i found https://oceanprotocol.com/#papers whitepaper published.

Ocean Protocol aims to make data scientists really happy, by giving them new superpowers: way more data than before, building AI models off private data, secure provenance of datasets, and more. https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/ocean-protocol-advisor-adam-drake-2c5b963ff99e

Ico is over like in march or so.

I hope at the time of the launch of the network in March 2019, the market will be bullish. Is it too early to predict the price of a coin for public sale? I think the price will be 0.35 euros.

Meet the Fleet Part IX- Dr. Irene Lopez de Vallejo
We’ve been hard at work since the public Pre-Launch. We’ve staffed up new team members from all over the world. We’ve set detailed plans for the tech, community and partnerships. Now we’d like to introduce some of our team members to you, in a celebration of the diversity and transparency of Team Ocean. https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/meet-the-fleet-part-ix-dr-irene-lopez-de-vallejo-bfba10674256

Feeding a Data-Hungry World
Ocean Protocol for Data Science, Part I

As Data Scientists, there are new technologies fast coming online which will change the way we build and train models, be it for personal projects, or as we work at our startups or large companies. In this series, I will explain some of these new technologies in the context of Ocean Protocol, insofar as it will impact your data science workflow.

At Ocean, we are building an ecosystem for data. This is to me the most powerful aspect of the project, as ecosystems are systems which evolve, diversify, and express emergent and anti-fragile behavior. The goal of the Ocean Protocol Foundation is to seed and nurture this nascent system.

Today, at the genesis of Ocean, let’s explore how the project can change your data-science workflow and your quest for more data. We’ll concentrate on the data Marketplace and it’s two sides: Data Scientist (Consumer) and Data Provider. https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/feeding-a-data-hungry-world-8d43ca22c62

Community Report, June 2018| —Mapping the Course
Surfs up! Ocean Protocol caught some sweet waves this month and members of the team were stoked to be part of inspiring meetups, insightful panel discussions, intense hackathons and even collect a prestigious prize at a flashy awards ceremony. There was a lot going on in town in June, and it felt like we were there on the ground, everywhere at once this past month. https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/community-report-june-2018-mapping-the-course-making-connections-c3302d319f1

TypeForm Data Breach FAQs
On June 29, 2018 at 1900 CST, we were informed by TypeForm of a data breach which affected Seed and private Pre-Launch contributors to Ocean Protocol.

The TypeForm report stated that the hackers accessed the data that Seed and private Pre-Launch contributors submitted to fulfil KYC and AML requirements. Information that the hackers likely downloaded includes email, birthdate, place of birth, ID number, nationality, wallet address, scans of identity documents, proof of residence, proof of accreditation and for our US participants, SSN.

We are trying to confirm with TypeForm whether your data was stored in an encrypted or unencrypted manner. If it was stored unencrypted, then the hackers have your information. https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/typeform-data-breach-faqs-11008736aaa9

ICO Analysis: Ocean Protocol
Published on June 20, 2018
By Daniel Won

Team
The Ocean Protocol team brings a lot of experience to the table.
CEO Bruce Pon spent years at top companies like Accenture and Daimler AG as a consultant and project manager before founding his own consulting, data, and blockchain-based companies.
Overall, the team has deep experience in big data, blockchain, AI, and data exchange and has done things like calculate gravity assisted trajectories between Earth and Mars, built a dozen global banks, managed operating budgets over $30 million, and more.
Companies, institutions, and organizations that the team is or has worked with include MIT, Cisco, Oracle, Microsoft, IBM, Google, Ernst & Young, and more.
Pon and other core members founded BigchainDB in 2014. BigchainDB will develop Ocean Protocol and has already created things like ascribe.io, a way for creators to track intellectual property on the blockchain, WhereOnThe.Net, which tracks the spread of creative works, IDPB, the Interplanetary Database or a shared global database, ImageMatch, machine learning-based image recognition, and more. Clearly, it isn’t their first rodeo when it comes to things like blockchain, data, and AI.
DEX Pte. Ltd. is also working on developing Ocean Protocol and was a lead partner for Data City : Data Nation, a partnership amongst Singaporean and British corporations and governments to work on data exchange by providing common regulatory and governance frameworks.
Singapore, which has shown its hostility towards crypto at times, is the lead government partner for Ocean Protocol. Singapore wants to become the hub for data sharing and is working with Ocean Protocol to achieve that goal.
Verdict
Though Ocean Protocol has a promising premise and team with lots of relevant experience, lack of a working product and significant partnerships makes investing less desirable.
Risks
    No working product (-2)
    Many other competitors like Enigma, Datum, Dentcoin, Streamr, and more, some of which have working products. (-1)
    No other significant advisors or partnerships besides Singaporean government that could boost the spread of Ocean Protocol. (-1)
    No hard cap announced for Network Launch Distribution round. (-1)
Growth Potential
    Data sharing and AI are huge growth industries. (+3)
    Team has lots of experience, especially in relevant fields, such as blockchain, data exchange, and AI. (+3)
    While competitors may be focusing on specific use cases, such as “data marketplace for advertising data”, Ocean Protocol is more of a platform, and platforms, e.g. Ethereum and NEO, have done well in the past. (+2)
    Pre-Launch round had an equitable token distribution with a max contribution of 1250 euros – helps prevent dumping by whales. (+2)
    Long vesting periods to prevent dumping. (+1)
Disposition
It might be better to pick up some OCN post-ICO or if and when the project is more proven in terms of a working product and partnerships. Moreover, Network Launch Distribution details have yet to be released, which could have an influence on investment potential as well.
Ocean Protocol receives a 5/10.

Advancing attested IoT data trading marketplaces through Weeve & BigchainDB/Ocean Protocol Partnership



22.05.2018. Berlin, Germany — Weeve, a Berlin-based blockchain startup is, announcing its partnership with BigchainDB/Ocean Protocol to explore IoT data-trading marketplaces with the help of Artificial Intelligence. This partnership is the result of meeting at Consensus 2018 hosted by Coindesk, during NYC Blockchain week.

Weeve is building the ecosystem for the machine-to-machine economy, where IoT devices monetize their most valuable asset, data. The Weeve Network enables truthful data trading through the Blockchain and creation of private and public marketplaces, curated to sell the aforementioned data.

Sorry, could i please ask where i can see the balance of the tokens i purchased at the ico. It has been a while i know. I cannot log in on the web. Many thanks

Trent McConaghy, Co-Founder - Curated Proof Markets & Token-Curated Identities in Ocean Protocol

Trent details Ocean’s token mechanics via step-by-step examples of how users earn tokens by curating data and making it available, in a Proofed Curation Market (PCM) setting. He also describes Ocean's approach to identity, which leverages Token-Curated Registries (TCR) on actors.

As I thought, they have not reached hardcap easily and they have removed 1.8 cap Lol

I've looked at it. It seems legit but not really something I could be confident enough to say this will be this years biggest ICO, far from it to be honest I think their are allot of good ICO's out this year for it to compete with

It is not a small contribution cap? If you are sure that the soft/hard cap will not be reached why are you saying that the max contribution amount per user is not too low?

This does not make sense imho.

The pre sale for whitelisted users started yesterday. Unfortunately the max contribution amount per user was only 1.8 ETH.

Looks like the whitelist is closed

I, too, the maximum amount for investing gives 1.825 aired. For the time being, I do not want to invest. I'll watch, but I do not see the hype yet.

It is not low, bearish market + more than 1 year locked, many will leave and I am sure that the cap will not be reached

The maximum contribution amount is only 1.825 ETH? Really? Is this a joke?  Why is it that low?

No, not yet. But might in future.

I've signed up to the whitelist - looks very promising.

True

I read something about that tokens will be locked for two years? Are these only rumors or is it true?

Can you explain me how to calculate if a hard cap has a good valuation?

Ah i checked this project a few weeks ago! nice to be reminded!
Thanks for the information! i will try not to miss the whitelist. Seems like a nice and promising ico. I already put an alarm to my phone for this 

Interesting! I will add myself to the whitelist. Does anyone know if there is a bounty campaign planned or already running?

This is one project in demand, the whitelist will likely end very fast because of the huge demand and rush to subscribe to it, I will subscribe then look at the token metrics, if the hard cap is good valuation then this will be a steal

Thanks for information. I have not heard it before. I have done a little research and it looks quite interesting. I also came up with the following information about ICO.

Token Public Pre-Launch:

- Starts the first week of March
- Whitelisting starts February 15th on oceanprotocol.com
- 9M€ allocated (hard cap) for the Public Pre-Launch. Minimum contribution is 250€
- Network Launch Fundraising Q1 2019 (target)
- Tokens allocated during the Pre-Launch will be released from the Network Launch date over a 6 months period (1/6th of tokens released per month)

new heard about this project, the team look professional https://oceanprotocol.com/#team
and will learn more about this
anyway this project did not have an annoucements thread in this forum ?

I remember checking out the Ocean Protocol site and being intrigued. I'm glad that their whitelist has an opening date now.

Their team is huge. It's 29 people strong and the ICO hasn't even begun yet.

I can give you a real life example there are companies in Pharma/Healthcare world (will not take name) that provides data to all pharmas so they can use it to make call on doctors. They make their agreement in such a way that all the data is inter exchangeable and lot of it is sold at a premium price. How the pharmas benefit as it is a regulated space they do not have to worry about maintaining the integrity of it and getting permissions. Hope this puts the project in some context this is one example there could be many use cases as such. Depends on how good is the ICO's team

Data is the new gold, many crupto's basics are about data sharing/selling

Thanks for info!

Very good as a team and an idea. I'm going to sign up for Whitelist, but I think how much I will invest.

Why should any AI or data company sell their data?
Their data is the most valuable business secret they have.
Do you really think there is a market for trading data?

I am watching this project since month. Will definitely buy into this one. Do you know if there is any signature bounty campaign availble for Ocean Protocol project?

And I couldn't find any official Bitcointalk thread.

The sign in for the whitelist is starting 2/15

In my opinion one of the important icos of 2018. Don't miss it, but Dyor.
