Crypto Factor Modeling Data Challenge Offers $20,000 Prize Pool
馃攳 Crypto modeling secrets revealed?

A Crypto Factor Modeling Data Challenge has been announced, offering participants the opportunity to develop multi-factor risk models for cryptocurrency price variance. The challenge, which runs until August 27, invites data scientists to create custom datasets and explore factors influencing crypto prices. Participants can utilize data from various sources including Tardis, Kaiko, CCXT, and Uniswap. The challenge encourages the use of macroeconomic trends, fundamental data, and statistical techniques in model development. A prize pool of $20,000 is available for successful entries. The challenge is hosted on the 0xdesights platform in partnership with Numerai.

Ocean Protocol Launches VS Code Extension for AI Development

Ocean Protocol has released a VS Code extension that transforms your IDE into a blockchain-enabled AI development environment. Key features: - Direct integration with Ocean's compute-to-data capabilities - Dataset tokenization and management - Real-time compute job monitoring - Metadata editing functionality The extension allows developers to build privacy-preserving AI workflows without leaving their editor. All operations from publishing datasets to executing compute jobs happen directly in VS Code. [Learn more about the extension](https://docs.oceanprotocol.com/developers/vscode)
ASI Predictoor Continues Weekly Crypto Prediction Rewards Program
ASI Predictoor maintains its AI-powered crypto prediction incentive program, offering rewards for accurate price direction forecasts. Key features: - AI bots predict crypto price movements (UP/DOWN) in 5m/1h intervals - Weekly rewards distributed based on prediction accuracy - Program accessible via [predictoor.ai](https://predictoor.ai) The initiative, supported by Ocean Protocol and Oasis Protocol, provides a platform for AI/ML practitioners to monetize their prediction models. Latest round details: [Blog Post](https://blog.oceanprotocol.com/df145-completes-and-df146-launches-f7afd3368239)
Ocean Protocol Enables Verifiable Data Provenance for AI Compliance
As AI regulation tightens globally, Ocean Protocol introduces essential tools for data provenance and compliance: - **Data NFTs** for unique dataset identification and tokenization - **Datatokens** for controlled on-chain access - **Immutable logging** of all compute jobs and data interactions - **Version tracking** for both datasets and models The system creates transparent, auditable AI pipelines that help teams meet regulatory requirements like the EU AI Act. Ocean's stack transforms black-box AI into traceable, compliant systems. Learn more at [Ocean Protocol Developer Docs](https://docs.oceanprotocol.com/developers)
The Evolution of Computing: From CPUs to Distributed Systems
Traditional computing infrastructure faces new challenges in the AI era. While CPUs excel at sequential tasks and GPUs handle parallel operations, modern AI workloads demand capabilities beyond their limits. - CPUs: Optimized for logic and operating systems - GPUs: Better for rendering and ML inference - Limitations: Cost, energy demands, hardware constraints Distributed computing offers a solution by leveraging underutilized resources from gaming GPUs to enterprise systems. This approach provides: - Improved scalability - Cost effectiveness - Energy efficiency - Decentralized architecture
Ocean Protocol Launches CLI Tool for Data Asset Management
Ocean Protocol introduces a command-line interface (CLI) tool for managing data assets on their network. The tool enables: - One-step publishing of data services with NFTs and datatokens - Post-publication metadata and pricing updates - Streamlined data consumption with single commands - Compute-to-Data functionality using approved algorithms Setup requires cloning the repository and configuring environment variables. The CLI complements Ocean.js, their existing library for AI and data monetization. Get started: [Ocean CLI Repository](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/ocean-cli)
