Core ConceptsPrivacy as a Framework for Trade
The Data Marketplace builds upon the Zero Knowledge Proof Blockchain L1 Substrate infrastructure with the following key elements:
Tokenized Datasets
Transform data into tradeable digital assets, using Substrate's native token standards for divisible datasets and unique asset pallets for non-fungible datasets. This enables data creators to monetize their contributions while maintaining ownership through Substrate's account system.
Granular Access Control
A multi-tiered permission system, authenticated through Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), governs access based on coin ownership.
Implemented through custom Substrate pallets, access tiers range from:
Tier 0: Free metadata previews
Tier 5: Full dataset access
ZKPs enable eligibility verification without exposing sensitive user information.
Quality and Governance Components
Quality Assurance Framework
The Quality Assurance Framework establishes a multi-layered system to ensure data quality, consistency, and reliability across the marketplace. It integrates several verification and control mechanisms that operate together to maintain trust and transparency in data exchanges.
Reputation and Validation
At the heart of quality assurance are reputation systems, validation networks, and automated audits. Reputation systems are managed through native Substrate pallets to reward trustworthy contributors, validation networks independently verify the accuracy of data, and automated audits continuously monitor datasets to detect inconsistencies or errors.
Decentralized Governance
Data DAOs govern shared datasets through ZKP-secured voting mechanisms, ensuring that governance remains transparent and privacy-preserving. Implemented via Substrate’s democracy pallet, this structure promotes community-driven decision-making and democratic oversight of marketplace policies.
