ocean-lib 0.5.3

🐳 Ocean protocol library.

ocean-lib

ocean-lib is a Python library to privately & securely publish, exchange, and consume data. With it, you can:

• Publish data services: downloadable files or compute-to-data. Ocean creates a new ERC20 datatoken for each data set.
• Mint datatokens to allow buying/consuming the data service
• Consume datatokens, to access the service
• Transfer datatokens to another owner, and all other ERC20 actions using web3.py etc.
• Price datatokens in terms of OCEAN tokens by creating a Balancer pool of datatoken <> OCEAN
• Stake OCEAN tokens on specific datatokens (by adding OCEAN liquidity into a datatoken Balancer pool)
• Buy datatokens from available Balancer pools or from fixed price exchange if available
• And much more ...

ocean-lib is part of the Ocean Protocol toolset.
