2. [Ocean Market](https://market.oceanprotocol.com) - Decentralised data [marketplace](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/market)
3. [Autobot](https://autobotocean.com/) - Tokengated [data farming](https://df.oceandao.org/) intelligence app
4. [Tokengate](https://tokengate.oceanprotocol.com/) - Tokengated content [marketplace](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/token-gating-template)
5. [Acentrik Market](https://market.acentrik.io/) - Enterprise decentralized data marketplace
* ### Buy or Sell Data
Within the Ocean ecosystem, users have the possibility to publish and sell data or explore and purchase data. Data is published in the form of interoperable [ERC721](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-721.md) data NFTs and [ERC20](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/7f4f0377730f5fc266824084188cc17cf246932e/EIPS/eip-20.md) datatokens. The platform acts as a decentralized exchange (DEX) specifically designed for data transactions. Every action, including publishing, purchasing, and consuming data, is securely recorded on the blockchain, creating a tamper-proof audit trail.
For data scientists and AI practitioners, Ocean presents opportunities such as increased access to a broader range of data, including private data, crypto-secured provenance for data and AI training, and potential income streams from selling and curating data.
To showcase these capabilities, Ocean developed a demonstrator marketplace known as the [Ocean Market](https://market.oceanprotocol.com/).
The following guides will help you get started with buying and selling data:
* [Publish an NFT](../how-tos/marketplace-publish-data-asset.md)
* [Download an NFT](../how-tos/marketplace-download-data-asset.md)
* [Host Assets](../how-tos/asset-hosting/)
* ### Build Your Data Marketplace
With Ocean Protocol, you have the flexibility to create and launch your own data marketplace tailored to your specific requirements. Utilize the protocol's infrastructure and tools to establish a platform where data providers and consumers can connect and transact. 
You can choose from two options:
1.  **Fork the** [**Ocean Marketplace**](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/market) **and customize**: You have the ability to fork the existing [Ocean Marketplace](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/market) codebase and customize it according to your needs. This allows you to leverage the foundational infrastructure and functionality already built by Ocean Protocol while tailoring the user interface, features, and branding to align with your marketplace vision. Follow this [tutorial](../tutorials/build-a-marketplace/) to learn how to do it.
2. Build your marketplace with Ocean components: Alternatively, you can build your data marketplace from scratch using Ocean Protocol's modular components. Ocean provides a comprehensive set of building blocks, such as the [**Aquarius**](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/aquarius), [**Provider**](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/provider), Ocean [contracts](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/contracts), and Ocean libraries([**ocean.js**](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/ocean.js) & [**ocean.py**](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/ocean.py)), which you can integrate into your own marketplace development. This empowers you to create a unique and customized data marketplace experience while leveraging the underlying capabilities and standards provided by Ocean Protocol.

### Build Your Own Data Market
![Ocean Market Homepage](../.gitbook/assets/market/ocean-market-homepage.png)
If you're interested in starting your own marketplace checkout the following guides:
* [Forking Ocean Market](../tutorials/build-a-marketplace/forking-ocean-market.md)
* [Customising your market](../tutorials/build-a-marketplace/customising-your-market.md)
* [Deploying your market](../tutorials/build-a-marketplace/deploying-market.md)
### Manage datatokens and data NFTs for use in DeFi
Ocean makes it easy to publish data services (deploy ERC721 data NFTs and ERC20 datatokens), and to consume data services (spend datatokens). Crypto wallets, exchanges, and DAOs become data wallets, exchanges, and DAOs.
Use Ocean [JavaScript](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/ocean.js) or [Python](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/ocean.py) drivers to manage data NFTs and datatokens:
Ocean-based apps make data asset on-ramps and off-ramps easy for end users. Ocean smart contracts and libraries make this easy for developers. The data itself does not need to be on-chain, just the access control.
![New Data on-ramp and off-ramp](../.gitbook/assets/architecture/new-ramp-on-crypto-ramp-off.webp)
Data NFTs are ERC721 tokens representing the unique asset and datatokens are ERC20 tokens to access data services. Each data service gets its own data NFT and one or more type of datatokens.
To access the dataset, you send 1.0 datatokens to the data provider (running Ocean Provider). To give access to someone else, send them 1.0 datatokens. That's it.
Since datatokens are ERC20, and live on Ethereum mainnet, there's a whole ecosystem to leverage.
* _Publish and access data services:_ downloadable files or compute-to-data. Use Ocean to deploy a new [ERC721](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-721.md) and [ERC20](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/7f4f0377730f5fc266824084188cc17cf246932e/EIPS/eip-20.md) datatoken contract for each data service, then mint datatokens.
* _Transfer datatokens_ to another owner (or approve & transferFrom).
* _And more._ Use ERC20 support in [web3.js](https://web3js.readthedocs.io/), [web3.py](https://web3py.readthedocs.io/en/stable/examples.html#working-with-an-erc20-token-contract) and Solidity to connect datatokens with crypto wallets and other DeFi services.
### Compute-to-Data
Ocean's "Compute-to-Data" feature enables private data to be bought & sold. You can sell compute access to privately-held data, which never leaves the data owner’s premises. Ocean-based marketplaces enable the monetization of private data while preserving privacy.
Compute-to-data resolves the tradeoff between the benefits of using private data, and the risks of exposing it. It lets the data stay on-premise, yet allows 3rd parties to run specific compute jobs on it to get useful compute results like averaging or building an AI model.
The most valuable data is private data — using it can improve research and business outcomes. But concerns over privacy and control make it hard to access. With Compute-to-Data, private data isn’t directly shared but rather specific access to it is granted.
![Compute-to-data](../.gitbook/assets/architecture/feature-compute@2x.webp)
It can be used for data sharing in science or technology contexts, or in marketplaces for selling private data while preserving privacy, as an opportunity for companies to monetize their data assets.
Private data can help research, leading to life-altering innovations in science and technology. For example, more data improves the predictive accuracy of modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) models. Private data is often considered the most valuable data because it’s so hard to get at, and using it can lead to potentially big payoffs.
Checkout these guides if you are aiming to get a deeper understanding on how compute-to-data works:
* [Architecture](../developers/core-concepts/compute-to-data-architecture.md)
* [Datasets & Algorithms](../developers/core-concepts/compute-to-data-datasets-algorithms.md)
* [Minikube Environment](../infrastructure/compute-to-data-minikube.md)
* [Writing Algorithms](../developers/core-concepts/compute-to-data-algorithms.md)
* [Private docker registry](../infrastructure/compute-to-data-docker-registry.md)
## How does it work?
In Ocean Protocol, each asset gets its own ERC721 **data NFT** and one(or more) ERC20 **datatokens**. This enables data wallets, data exchanges, and data co-ops by directly leveraging crypto wallets, exchanges, and more.
Ocean Protocol provides tools for developers to _build data markets_, and to _manage data NFTs and datatokens_ for use in DeFi.
