Exchanges that are currently in partnership with Ocean Protocol includes AI Singapore, Aviva, Johnson & Johnson, Roche, and Unilever of which their aim is to use standards set by the exchange to demonstrate how to share data safely and securely without compromising privacy or ownership.

Co-founder of Ocean Protocol, Bruce Pon said that:

“Today’s beta release is a big milestone for our project and society as a whole. It marks the beginning of a new and open global Data Economy. With the beta network going live, data scientists and developers can start building and experimenting with new services and applications using Ocean Protocol.” 

Optimal Data Control

In order to ensure safe and secure data sharing, guarantee control and auditability while protecting privacy, Ocean Protocol uses blockchain technology, tokens, and smart contracts.

Also, technology allows individuals and businesses to set price and data without losing control of their data. Smart contracts enable data owners to create the terms of access, which are then executed accordingly. This gives data owners and buyers security, transparency, guarantees of payment and use, and security.
