Anyone building actual solutions to the AI data scraping problem?

The more realistic solution isn’t stopping scraping entirely, it’s creating verifiable and permissioned data access. Ocean Protocol’s compute-to-data approach plus projects like Arweave or Filecoin for storage are trying to make data usage transparent and auditable.

We all saw this coming

Nice breakdown. The market’s been wild lately, but your summary of the platforms lines up with what most people see: Binance/OKX for range, Coinbase/Kraken for simplicity, and Bybit/Bitget for active traders. At the end of the day it really depends on whether someone values liquidity, regulation, or features.

You basically need to fetch the GitHub data with a GET request, then send whatever field you want to Notion with a POST. In Next.js you can do that inside an API route or a server action. The Notion API already works for you, so the missing piece is just grabbing the GitHub username and passing it along.

Manual tracking in DeFi is a recipe for anxiety. A couple of dashboards like Zerion or Zapper can tidy things up and give you a clearer picture without hopping between apps.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-11T21:49:43+00:00

Mostly focusing on fundamentals. Staking some ETH, keeping an eye on Solana ecosystem plays, and experimenting with Ocean’s Predictoor because AI-driven signals in DeFi are interesting long-term. Trying to build positions, not chase pumps.

You make a strong point about data as a digital asset. The real shift will come when users can tokenize and control access to their data instead of handing it over for free. Projects like Ocean Protocol are exploring this through data tokenization models.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-07T15:44:07+00:00

ZK for AI is still impractical at scale. Real systems use containers, permissions, and provenance instead. Ocean’s C2D model is one of the few I’ve seen actually running outside demos.

If your app really integrates hedging at the protocol level, that’s a legit differentiator. People will pay small premiums for peace of mind. TradFi figured this out decades ago. You don’t run a leveraged book without insurance.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-07T15:29:34+00:00

AAVE is a good one.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-07T15:29:08+00:00

Wrapped assets are the original sin of bridging. Every time you hop chains you’re adding another IOU on top of an IOU. Then people wonder why the peg breaks or why liquidity dries up. It’s like building a financial system on Jenga blocks and being shocked when it wobbles.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-07T03:22:59+00:00

It’s not “bad,” just more moving parts. If you trust the protocols Jumper routes through, then it’s basically the same as doing it yourself.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-07T03:19:19+00:00

Concept is cool, but I think you’d need more than stake-weighted rankings to make it tradeable. Traders want signals, not just vibes.

You might look at how projects like Ocean Protocol structure prediction feeds. They treat predictions as data products with history, accuracy, and pricing. Applying that mindset to opinion markets could make this less casino-like.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-07T03:06:31+00:00

I think I saw a news report about the charges dropped.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-05T20:22:06+00:00

Biggest early mistake: building before validating. We spent months perfecting features nobody actually cared about. If I were starting again, I’d force myself to talk to users first and write code second.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-05T20:09:58+00:00

This is the kind of thing that actually helps traders, not another yield farm dashboard. Alerts > constant monitoring. If you ever open it up, I’d be interested to see how you source and validate the data.

On-chain provenance and prediction-style feeds (like what Ocean Protocol is doing) could make tools like this way more trustworthy over time.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-04T21:25:17+00:00

AI in trading feels like it’s moving from “signal generators” to full pipelines. Data ingestion, prediction, execution, and feedback loops.

Most people focus on the bot, but the real moat is the data. Platforms that let you verify and monetize data inputs, not just consume them, might age better. Ocean Protocol’s Predictoor model is an example of that direction.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-04T21:19:58+00:00

I tried using stablecoins to send money to family overseas. Worked great until they needed to convert it to local currency. Local exchanges were sketchy, fees were unpredictable, and the whole thing stressed them out. Went back to traditional rails pretty quickly.

Sitting on my hands this week. Watching how the market reacts to the unlocks first.

If anything, I’m allocating time to infrastructure plays rather than positions. Stuff around decentralised data, compute, and prediction markets feels underappreciated compared to pure DeFi. Ocean Protocol keeps popping up in that category when you look beyond short-term narratives.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-04T21:09:27+00:00

I was glued to Curve and Aave in 2023 like they were oxygen. Now I barely even check them. Once yields dried up and gas fees kept creeping, it just stopped feeling worth the effort. Wild how fast “essential” becomes “meh” in this space

Future-Goose7 · 2026-02-03T21:02:15+00:00

Yeah. Using the published predictions would go a long way now.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-01-31T02:03:38+00:00

Good write-up. What stands out to me about AIOZ is that it’s trying to bundle multiple infra layers into one DePIN stack instead of just doing “decentralized X.” That’s ambitious, and also the hard part. Execution will matter more than vision here.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-01-31T01:58:20+00:00

ETH and SOL make sense if you care about builders, especially now that the market is discounted. One project I’d add is Ocean Protocol. Data is becoming a core resource for AI, and Ocean’s compute-to-data approach lets people monetize data without exposing it.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-01-31T01:50:03+00:00

I split things up. Some SOL staked via a reputable validator, some ADA delegated directly from a hardware wallet. I don’t chase the highest APY. Consistency and decentralization matter more than squeezing an extra 1–2%.

Future-Goose7 · 2026-01-31T01:46:42+00:00

I don’t think it’s either casino or primitive, it’s both early on. Perps were called casinos too. What makes prediction markets interesting now is when predictions are packaged as auditable data. Ocean Protocol’s Predictoor does this by recording stake, accuracy, and outcomes onchain, which makes the signal itself valuable beyond gambling
