Ocean DAO Taps Governor for Crowdsourced Market Data

Governor DAO has been awarded a grant via Ocean DAO to help bring our crowdsourced data to the Ocean Marketplace

As part of the second round of Ocean DAO’s monthly grants program, Governor DAO was awarded 10,000 OCEAN (valued at roughly $7,000) for our ongoing data aggregation initiative.

Our proposal, which can be viewed here, outlines our intentions to collect market data through incentivization of our existing Governor DAO community members. This data will be packaged into a dataset and ultimately published on the Ocean Marketplace for sale to the general public.

For the Ocean ecosystem, our efforts benefit the marketplace with a more efficient, equitable, and trustworthy strategy for data collection and sale. For Governor DAO, this OCEAN grant enables us to stake into our upcoming datasets, which enables higher earnings on the datasets we publish. Revenue from our endeavors is delivered to the DAO, where it is owned by GDAO holders.

Our litepaper further explains our roadmap for data, as do several topics in our forums — start here.

Our data crowdsourcing is ongoing, and any individual can participate by filling out a survey (plus other microtasks) through our Gleam campaign. Participation in the gleam campaign grants entries into a GDAO giveaway with a grand prize of 1,000 GDAO and 50 winners total.
