Ocean Protocol partners with Token Engineering Academy for Ocean Market Balancer Simulations

Ocean Protocol will partner with Token Engineering Academy and Balancer to spin off #OpenScience for the Ocean ecosystem.

As a challenge partner for Balancer Simulations, Ocean will collaborate with researchers to study agent-based models of the Web3 data economy. Additionally, Balancer Simulations researchers will be well-positioned for additional ongoing funding from OceanDAO for further Token Engineering research.

Ocean Protocol unlocks the value of data as a new asset class. Data owners and consumers publish, discover, and consume data assets in a secure, privacy-preserving fashion on Ocean Market. In parallel, OCEAN token holders stake on data and become liquidity providers in new data token pools. These datatokens bridge the multibillion data industry into DeFi assets under management, and help valuable data get used to optimize DeFi yields and capital efficiency.

It’s our pleasure to collaborate with TokE Academy and Balancer Simulations researchers to model Web3 data economies. We’re excited to learn from high-fidelity EVM simulations of AMMs with agent-based data suppliers, data consumers, and more. – Trent McConaghy, Founder of Ocean Protocol

Over three months, Balancer simulations will gather DeFi researchers to create simulations of a Web3 data economy. The researchers will use TokenSPICE agent-based simulation with EVM-in-the-loop. Using EVM enables perfect-fidelity models of Balancer V1 and V2 contracts. These models interact with Python-based agents for data suppliers, data consumers, data stakers and speculators. Researchers will compare one-sided with two-sided data staking, model the effect of liquidity mining and other incentives on data supply or demand, and compare Dutch Auctions versus Liquidity Bootstrapping Pools for Initial Data Offerings (IDOs). The results will be accessible and re-usable for the Balancer, Ocean, and Token Engineering communities.

What is Ocean Protocol?

Ocean Protocol’s mission is to kickstart a Web3 Data Economy that reaches the world, giving power back to data owners and enabling people to capture value from data to better our world.

Data is a new asset class; Ocean Protocol unlocks its value. Data owners and consumers use the Ocean Market app to publish, discover, and consume data assets in a secure, privacy-preserving fashion.

Ocean datatokens turn data into data assets. This enables data wallets, data exchanges, and data co-ops by leveraging crypto wallets, exchanges, and other DeFi tools. Projects use Ocean libraries and OCEAN in their own apps to help drive the Web3 Data Economy.

What is Token Engineering Academy?

Token Engineering Academy, a spin-off of the Token Engineering Community, offers education and collaborative research programs for a new generation of engineers. This new field combines economics and game theory, ethics, systems engineering, AI, optimization and control theory, computer science, and social sciences to develop better economic systems. With more than 400 students and collaborations with partners like Gitcoin, BlockScience, and Boson Protocol, it is a highly influential accelerator for this new discipline’s development.

What is Balancer?

The Balancer Protocol is a core building block of DeFi infrastructure—a unique financial primitive and permissionless development platform. Balancer is the most flexible and versatile Automated Market Maker, giving developers unprecedented customizability.
