In March 2019, we launched [an international version](https://medium.com/ocean-protocol-international)
of our blog for our non-english speaking communities. You can find blog posts in various languages such as Chinese, Russian, Korean, Spanish, Japanese and many more.
Below we have listed the most important blog posts that you should not miss.
### Diving into Ocean
The blog posts are easily-digestible introductions into Ocean Protocol. We address the “data problem” and explore real world uses cases involving our partners and collaborators.

Follow [our YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/oceanprotocol) not to miss any of our video content that includes meetup recordings, tech tutorials, use-case presentations and much more. Here is a selection of our most important playlists:
- [Ocean Partners and Collaborators](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_dn0wVs9kWohtVtZZlj9AR5gcMj0s15h) - This series introduces our partners and collaborators and explores the possible way how Ocean Protocol can help their use-cases.
We have translated this series into several languages. Just add the subtitles of your choice while watching.
- [Manta Ray Tutorials](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_dn0wVs9kWqSO2iCXvrWuxKFSgVr0Jrw) - Introducing Manta Ray-Ocean Protocol for Data Scientists, Data Engineers, and Python developers!
Manta Ray is designed to leverage the underlying Ocean API (oceanically named squid-py) which provides surface level methods for searching, publishing, and consuming assets in the deeper Ocean Protocol network.
- [Meet the Fleet](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_dn0wVs9kWrgEGk0cd52qO6w3FiuY65G) - Ocean Protocol is being built by a diverse ecosystem of contributors who share a common vision of unlocking data for AI. Our core team has converged from many different countries, industries, and backgrounds to collaborate on kickstarting a New Data Economy. Check this mini series to find out who helps developing Ocean Protocol.
Our team members travel the world to present about Ocean Protocol and meet with local communities. Please, check [our website](https://oceanprotocol.com/#events) for events in your area.
- [Data Economy](https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/pro/data-economy) - Estimates show that a \$2-5 Trillion Data Economy could be created if organizations and people would have the tools to guarantee control, privacy, security, compliance and pricing of data. Our target is bringing together curious minds with a background in Data Science, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Business Innovation and Blockchain. We started this initiative to build a community of enthusiasts around Data Economy including the following core topic areas: (1) Data Exchanges & Marketplaces, (2) Data Security, Privacy, Ethics, (3) Decentralised Systems & Blockchain, (4) Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, (5) Data Curation & Interoperability, and (6) New Business Models and Tangible Use Cases.
- [Token Engineering](https://www.meetup.com/pro/tokenengineering/) - Our mission is to see token ecosystem design become a new engineering discipline. This implies a body of theory, practice, tools and a sense of responsibility. We aim to do this collectively as a community in a decentralized, permissionless, open-source fashion that all can contribute to and all can use.
