SOON|πŸš€πŸ‘€

Get ready, Oceaners! πŸ› οΈ

πŸ‘€veOCEAN goes live next Monday (Sep 26). Data Farming will resume three days later (Thursday)!🌊

Let's dive into the details!πŸ‘‡

⁉️What is veOCEAN?
It is the main mechanism for locking $OCEAN and for curating datasets on Ocean - it’s lower risk than datatoken pools, and delivers more benefits.

What can I do with veOCEAN?πŸ‘‡
βœ… Lock $OCEAN to receive veOCEAN, and earn passive rewards.

βœ… Use veOCEAN to curate data with high Data Consume Volume (DCV) and get even more rewards.

βœ… Vote on @OceanDAO_ proposals

Here is an overview of the timeline⏰

πŸ“…Sep 26: veOCEAN goes live. Lock your OCEAN for veOCEAN at http://df.oceandao.org

πŸ“…Sep 29: Counting for Data Farming /DF5 resumes

πŸ“…Oct 6: DF5 payouts resume. Counting starts for DF6

πŸ“…Oct 13: DF6 payout; DF7 counting starts

Please note ⚠️

DF will follow phases as before. When it resumes, it will be with a new β€œVE/DF Alpha” phase for 4 weeks. β€œDF Beta” and β€œDF Main” phases will follow, as previously targeted.
