The Data Ownership Protocol (DOP) is a blockchain-based initiative designed to empower users with control over their financial data through selective transparency. By enabling the encryption of ERC-20 tokens, DOP ensures that transaction details and token balances remain confidential, visible only to authorized parties. This approach addresses privacy concerns inherent in traditional blockchain systems, offering users enhanced confidentiality. DOP has also introduced a multimillion-dollar grants program to encourage developers to create innovative applications that integrate with its ecosystem, promoting the adoption of selective transparency across decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and other sectors.
