About Predict-ETH Competition

Calling all Oceaners and data scientists! How accurately can you predict ETH?

Ocean’s Predict-ETH data challenge is an exciting opportunity for data scientists to showcase their skills and potentially win big. In this competition, you must build a model that can accurately predict the price of Ether (ETH).

It uses Ocean Protocol’s open-source ocean.py library.

Participants retain full control over any model they build for the competition, enabling them to monetize their work through the competition, trade using their model, or sell access to the model as a data feed on the Ocean Market!

Some contestants in previous Predict-ETH rounds had excellent predictions. Can you one-up them?

Prizes

Prize Pool: $5,000 USD worth of OCEAN

  • 1st place: $2,500
  • 2nd place: $1,500
  • 3rd place: $1,000

We will identify winners by the blockchain account they use in the competition (on Mumbai), and send the OCEAN to that account on Ethereum mainnet. We will not be sending notifications by email or DMing (we aren’t tracking that!)

Setup

See the challenge requirements, and submit your predictions all on the Predict-ETH Round 6 README.

You can use any data you wish — static data or streams, free or priced, raw data or feature vectors, published in Ocean or not. The top-level README links to data feeds and AI modeling approaches that you may find helpful in the challenge’s.

The submission deadline is Wed Jun 7, 2023 at 23.59 UTC.

You must submit predictions (5+1) minutes, 10 minutes, minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, …, 55 minutes, 60 minutes in the future.

Evaluation Criteria

The winner = whoever has lowest prediction error (normalized mean-squared error, or NMSE). That’s all. There is no subjectivity.

To be eligible, competitors must produce the outcomes that the Round 5 README guides.

✅ Created an Ocean data NFT

✅ Filled it with (encrypted) predictions

✅ Transferred it to the Ocean judges before the deadline

✅ And a bit more; the README has full info

Note: Predict-ETH does not require a presentation, registration on Desights, or anything else. Everything is anon and on-chain.
