An overview of Ocean Protocol's governance and incentives mechanisms

veOCEAN & Data Farming

veOCEAN is a fork of veCRV, and enables you to become a governance participant, eligible to receive rewards and engage with different protocol mechanisms.

The following docs should provide you with sufficient intuition to access, utilize, and build upon the protocol's core incentive and reward system: Data Farming.

veOCEAN

Learning about veOCEAN will help you answer the question "What can I do with my veOCEAN?" and give you insights on how veOCEAN works. It will teach you everything you need to know about why it exists and how it works.

You will learn that by just holding veOCEAN passively, you are able to earn rewards.

Data Farming

Data Farming 101 will teach you about the different reward systems, how they work, and how to access them. By the end of it, you should be more familiar with how Data Farming works and able to take next steps to curate assets.

Data Farming Background will provide you with more intuitions about Data Farming, briefly explain the Reward Function, and how the program evolved over time.
