PARTNERSHIP | We're teaming up with @UTU_trust
to launch their trust infrastructure for a safer internet on #OceanMarket, and to build mechanisms to share data between the two platforms.

#TheYearOfScaling

👉 https://t.co/WhVyDv7ppZ?amp=1

Together, we'll be creating trust profiles of data providers & consumers, data sets & other entities on #OceanMarket. Users will be able to rate & review these, generating trust scores for them. #Blockchain tech rewards trustworthy actors & prevents manipulation of ratings.

🔐 @UTU_trust's vision is to make the internet a safer, more trusted place to gather, share, work, and trade. Fees for software dev & UTU API usage will be funded by the Ocean Protocol Foundation, and the bulk of the work will be completed by Q4 2021.

"This partnership will allow good actors on #OceanMarket to display the trust they’ve earnt, which in turn will incentivize others to trust those actors again and again," said @manan77patel, Growth Accelerator at Ocean
