π°π· Ocean Protocol & Oasis Host DePIN DeFAI Seoul Meetup

**Ocean Protocol** and **Oasis Protocol** are hosting a DePIN & DeFAI meetup in Seoul on September 24th at Hotel Cappuccino from 3:00-8:00 PM (GMT+9). **Event highlights include:** - Keynote on decentralized AI and user self-sovereignty - Product insights from Ocean's team - Live demo of Ocean Nodes - Fireside chat: "WTF is AI taking DeFAI?" The rooftop event features speakers from both protocols discussing the intersection of decentralized physical infrastructure and decentralized AI. **Limited seats available** - [Register here](https://luma.com/depin-defai-rooftop?tk=WobWwA)
Ocean Protocol Launches VS Code Extension for Decentralized AI Development
**Ocean Protocol has officially released its VS Code Extension** on the Visual Studio Code marketplace, making decentralized compute accessible directly from developers' coding environment. **Key features include:** - Run compute jobs and train AI models without leaving your IDE - Direct access to Ocean Nodes for decentralized computing - Built-in real-time monitoring for distributed AI workflows - Privacy-preserving Compute-to-Data job deployment The extension eliminates the need for separate dashboards, integrating **compute and data access directly into developers' workflows**. This streamlines the process of building federated learning systems and distributed AI applications. Developers can now tap into Ocean's decentralized infrastructure without switching between multiple tools or interfaces. The extension supports safe deployment of privacy-preserving AI models while maintaining the familiar VS Code development experience.

Ocean Protocol Launches Data NFTs for Scientific IP Management
Ocean Protocol introduces Data NFTs, enabling researchers to tokenize and manage scientific intellectual property on-chain. Key features: - Mint sequences, models & datasets as verifiable assets - License genes for research with datatokens - Offer API access to models - Split royalties via smart contracts - Track versions & access logs The system provides automated IP management through smart contracts, replacing traditional legal processes. All assets are timestamped, auditable, and wallet-linked for seamless compliance and publication tracking.

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)
