Ocean Protocol Foundation withdraws from the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance

https://x.com/oceanprotocol/status/1976136922289308064?s=09

To the entire Ocean and ASI community.

We are eager to share more information about Ocean’s departure from the ASI Alliance, to answer many of the valid questions by the community and respond forcefully to allegations raised.

We are, however, constrained from sharing the truth and facts at the moment. Please standby while the process works its way through and as soon as we can share more, we will.

Ocean 🌊 is working and active. We are refraining from engaging in unfounded claims and harmful rumours that make the situation worse for the entire ASI and Ocean communities. Ocean had earlier suggested waiving confidentiality over the adjudicator's recent findings as a means of allowing the communities to see the truth for themselves. However, Mr Humayun Sheikh refused this. We are therefore preparing responses to the various unfounded claims and allegations while respecting the ambits of the law. In the meantime, please be assured the Ocean treasury is safe, intact, and will continue to be deployed for the benefit of the Ocean community.

We acknowledge that binance has the sole discretion to list and accept deposits of $OCEAN. We look forward to continued productive and collaborative cooperation with Binance in the future.

The ASI Alliance from Ocean’s Perspective

By
@brucepon


People are rightly angry and frustrated. No one is a winner in this current state of unease, lack of information and transparency, and mudslinging. Ocean doesn’t see the benefit of throwing around unfounded and false allegations or the attempts to sully the reputations of the projects and people – it just damages both the ASI and Ocean communities unnecessarily.

Ocean has chosen to remain silent until now, out of respect for the ongoing legal processes. But given so many flagrant violations of decency, Ocean would like to take an opportunity to rebut many publicly voiced false allegations, libels, and baseless claims being irresponsibly directed towards the Ocean Protocol project. The false and misleading statements serve only to further inflame our community, while inciting anger and causing even more harm to the ASI and Ocean communities than is necessary.

Rather than throw unsubstantiated jabs, I would like to provide a full context with supporting evidence and links, to address many of the questions around the ASI Alliance, Ocean’s participation, and the many incorrect allegations thrown out to muddy the waters and sow confusion among our community.

This blogpost will be followed up with a claim-by-claim rebuttal of all the allegations that have been directed towards Ocean since October 9, 2025 but for now, this blog gives the context and Ocean’s perspective.

I encourage you to read it all, as it reflects months of conversations that reveal the context and progression of events, so that you can best understand why Ocean took steps to chart a separate course from the ASI Alliance. We hope the ASI Alliance can continue its work and we wish them well. Meanwhile, Ocean will go its own way, as we have every right to do.

These are the core principles of decentralization – non-coercion, non-compulsion, individual agency, sovereign property ownership and the power of you, the individual, to own and control your life.

The best part about Compute to Data isn’t just the tech

Owners keep control. Builders get results. Compliance sees a clean trail

It’s a blueprint for the AI economy

We just wrapped the CivicLens annotation challenge in partnership with @lunor_ai

206 contributors labeled European Parliament speeches for stance, claims, tone, topic, and ideology cues

The result offers valuable insights into political discourse analysis and high-quality data curation

We’ve noticed that image generation often breaks when users scale too fast. That’s one of the reasons we added the Free Compute feature to the Ocean VS Code extension

Users can start with a small, fixed-seed baseline, lock their settings, and save both the configuration and the outputs, ensuring their runs remain consistent and repeatable. It keeps things stable while they experiment and scale at their own pace

Try it now and use your 7,200 seconds of free compute time to get started

Fine-tuning models sounds easy until you actually do it

You write the training noscript, set up a server, move large datasets, manage credentials, pay for idle compute, and still worry about data leaks

With the Ocean VS Code extension workflow, the loop is much simpler

You attach your training noscript, add a dataset ID or URL, and hit Run. The computation occurs on Ocean Nodes within a secure zone, where the data already resides. The updated model is returned to your local folder
