Every vessel,permanently on record

Ocechain writes global AIS vessel positions to Bitcoin — an immutable, publicly verifiable evidence layer for insurers, logistics, compliance teams, and operators who need to know where a ship was, and prove it.

Connecting to live fleet…——tx: —

Ocechain is maritime intelligence on Bitcoin: live AIS vessel positions recorded as permanent, publicly verifiable ledger entries — for marine insurance, logistics, compliance, and operators who need evidence, not screenshots.

Signal to permanence

How it works

From the bridge of a ship to a permanent Bitcoin record — built for evidence, not guesswork.

Step 01

AIS ingestion

Global AIS streams feed a live vessel snapshot — MMSI, coordinates, speed, heading, and voyage metadata updated continuously as ships move.

Step 02

Compact recording

Each position is encoded into a compact payload and written into a Bitcoin transaction. Small records keep permanence affordable at fleet scale.

Step 03

Permanent on Bitcoin

Once mined, the record is immutable and publicly verifiable. Anyone can inspect the trail — without trusting a single proprietary database.

Who it serves

Built for decisions at sea

Ocechain is an evidence layer — permanent vessel positions on Bitcoin for teams who underwrite risk, move cargo, or settle disputes.

Marine insurance & claims

Reconstruct voyages with timestamped, tamper-evident positions. Verify incident locations, accelerate claims, and reduce fraud disputes.

Operators & P&I

Independent proof of where a vessel was when timelines are contested — useful for owners, managers, and mutual clubs.

Compliance & disputes

Cite a publicly auditable movement trail for high-stakes reviews without relying solely on a closed database.

Ports & logistics

Add confidence around vessel presence and ETA context for terminals, cargo teams, and supply-chain operations.

Public verification

Records are independently verifiable on a public Bitcoin explorer. Ocechain is not a navigational aid.

No trust required

Publicly verifiable

Ocechain does not ask you to trust a private database. Vessel positions are written to Bitcoin so counterparties — insurers, counsel, operators, journalists — can inspect the same permanent trail.
