Ocean Protocol is a blockchain project in the fast-growing data industry. Its goal is to help developers build applications and for people to earn by staking and data farming. Its technology unlocks data through non-fungible tokens (NFT), data tokens, and compute-to-data.
Ocean Protocol price has rallied for several reasons. First, OCEAN price surged because of the broader performance of cryptocurrencies. Most coins, including large ones like Bitcoin, Solana, Polkadot, and Tron have all jumped this year.
As a result, the fear and greed index has risen to the green zone of 74. Most cryptocurrencies tend to rally when there is greed in the market.
Second, OCEAN price has surged because of the overall demand for artificial intelligence (AI) tokens. While Ocean Protocol is not directly in the AI industry, most investors believe that its data aspect is useful in the sector.
