Ocean Protocol is an ecosystem for sharing data and associated services. It provides a tokenized service layer that exposes data, storage, compute and algorithms for consumption with a set of deterministic proofs on availability and integrity that serve as verifiable service agreements. There is staking on services to signal quality, reputation and ward against Sybil Attacks. Ocean helps to unlock data, particularly for AI. It is designed for scale and uses blockchain technology that allows data to be shared and sold in a safe, secure and transparent manner. The Ocean Protocol is an ecosystem composed of data assets and services, where assets are represented by data and algorithms, and services are represented by integration, processing and persistence mechanisms. Ocean Protocol facilitates discovery by storing and promoting metadata, linking assets and services, and provides a licensing framework that has toolsets for pricing. A multitude of data marketplaces can hook into Ocean Protocol to provide “last mile” services to connect data providers and consumers. Ocean Protocol is designed so that data owners cannot be locked-in to any single marketplace. The data owner controls each dataset.
As an ecosystem consisting of a series of decentralized applications, the core of ugChain is a decentralized account system (DAS) based on blockchain technology. The system has built-in exclusive token UG Token (UGC), which simultaneously has the equity attribute and monetary attribute. DAS (Decentralized Account System) is based on Ethereum (The UG Token Contract), and consortium blockchain (Consortium Blockchain Smart Contract) and saves all information in the blockchain network, the globally equivalent blockchain node protect the security of the system.
