Ocean Protocol outlines the forthcoming rollout following the 'yes' or 'no' votes of other Superintelligence Alliance partners. The outcome will significantly impact three areas: Passive DF, Volume DF, and veOCEAN. If the response is negative ('no'), all three aspects will continue unaffected, with payouts proceeding as scheduled. However, upon the completion of the DF82 settlement on March 28, 2024, rewards for Passive DF and Volume DF will cease.

Conversely, if the outcome is affirmative ('yes'), all three aspects will be removed from the ecosystem to ensure a seamless transition to ASI, aligning with SingularityNET and Fetch's outlined programs. In this scenario, veOCEAN holders will receive rewards based on a specific formula, and the airdrop is slated to occur within weeks. Notably, Predictor DF will remain unaffected regardless of the outcome.

This update follows the announcement of a merger between Fetch, Ocean, and SingularityNET, leading to the creation of the new token $ASI. Upon governance approval, FET, AGIX, and OCEAN will migrate to ASI, followed by a token swap. The merger aims to establish an AI platform for various sectors, overseen by the Superintelligence Alliance. Changes in token values have been observed following the merger announcement.

In light of these developments, Ocean Protocol has paused its Data Farming incentive program to assess governance outcomes. Depending on the results, decisions will be made accordingly, with the team prepared to respond appropriately.
