Data Farming (DF) is Ocean's incentive program. It rewards OCEAN to participants who make predictions (and more streams to come).

The DF webapp is where users perform most DF actions.

DF currently has one stream:

• Predictoor DF. Run prediction bots to earn continuously. Weekly Predictoor rewards are 500 USDC through 2026.

All streams repeat weekly that start on Thursdays 00:00 at UTC and end on Wed at 23:59 UTC.

Predictoor rewards become available to claim on the Monday following the end of the round.

DF Streams evolve over time. The next two sections cover past & future DF streams.

In Passive DF, users locked OCEAN for veOCEAN. In Active DF, users allocated veOCEAN to curate data assets.

• veOCEAN, Passive DF, and Active DF were retired on May 3, 2024, alongside an an airdrop to veOCEAN holders.
• veOCEAN holders can claim airdrop & past rewards at df.oceandao.org/rewards.
• The locked OCEAN will unlock according to its schedule (up to 4 years)
• This article has details.

In Challenge DF, users did weekly one-off predictions. It was retired on Nov 30, 2023.

For further details, the "Data Farming Series" article chronicles week-by-week rewards and DF evolution.

Potential DF evolution includes:
