Bitcoin Forum

Hello from Origin Protocol! Our entire team is gathered in our office in San Francisco and we thought it would be a good time to introduce ourselves to the Bitcointalk community.

We are building a sharing economy without intermediaries. A 0% commission booking engine that enables you to power your business or build a marketplace of your own.

From our website:


Our goal is to disrupt the billion dollar sharing economy, where the likes of AirBnb, Uber and GetAround are the 800 lb. gorillas. We want to reduce transaction fees (usually 20-30%), reduce censorship and regulation, and reward early platform users. Our platform is built on top of Ethereum and IPFS.

We are super excited about what we are doing and we hope you are too. The founders and first employees are serial entrepreneurs that have built and sold successful companies. Matt was very early at YouTube and has been part of three startup acquisitions. Josh built 3 venture-backed startups and sold Torbit to Walmart Labs. On the funding front we are backed by Pantera Capital. You can read some early press about us on Coindesk (https://www.coindesk.com/pantera-invests-3-million-sharing-economy-token-origin/).

nice idea and great team inside
but, where can i read the whitepaper from this project ?
regards

Whitepaper can be found here: http://www.originprotocol.com/whitepaper

Let us know your thoughts!

We are building a protocol and time will tell what that is used for. I think it is best for sharing economy type marketplaces. We are taking a 0% commission fee so we see a ton of potential for any industry where you see a high commission (we are seeing 12-40% as commonplace). We hope a lot of different communities build their own marketplaces on Origin Protocol.

Hey guy, I'm one of the founders. Happy to answer any questions you might have.

Yes, we support those types of marketplaces as well!

I see your team has a lot of entrepreneurial experience, and it's important to the project.

In fact, all 5 full-time employees on the team have built companies before & have been a part of 6 acquisitions to companies like Google and Walmart.

Matt and Josh (the two founders) are super talented guys and entrepreneurs. They've been founders or key employees at companies that have been acquired by giants like Google and Walmart Labs. Origin definitely has the pedigree/team box checked.

I also know that this is kind of a passion project for them. Matt built a real time analytics tool for comparing ride sharing prices. With his app you could see if Uber, Lyft, Sidecar, or a Taxi was cheaper in real time from A to B. Uber shut him down with a cease and desist. Josh was a big Airbnb host as well and experienced tons of issues with over-regulation, large fees, and a centralized body making arbitrary rules.

I know Josh has told me the story about getting in an Uber with the 30th Uber driver ever. It's unfair that that driver was integral to building the Uber network and contributing to its massive financial success but was not rewarded for doing so and is making less money than when he started.

It'd be really fitting for them to bring sharing economy and p2p marketplaces back to the people. These guys are really in it for the long term.

As an Airbnb host myself and someone who is a heavy participant in the sharing economy, I am really excited about what Origin is developing!

This is Matt, other cofounder on the project. Happy to answer any questions folks have.

Let us know if you have any questions or comments on our whitepaper: https://www.originprotocol.com/whitepaper

We have a public demo that we will post about tomorrow.

Hi is there an airdrop?

Hi all,

Long time lurker here. Been following BTC since ~2012. I'm helping Origin w/ some engineering & devops, so I figured it was time to make an account. Happy to answer any questions, but I also wanted to contribute by sharing a little anecdote about my personal mental journey with Origin.

When Origin was first described to me several months ago, I thought to myself "why do I need a blockchain to buy a bike off Craigslist or rent out my apartment on VRBO?" What made it click it for me was when I finally realized what happens when Origin becomes the underlying database for sharing applications. They are taking what has become the moat of most semi-monopolies (their data) and turning that on it's head. Imagine how much more innovative & competitive AirBnB or MLS or Craigslist would need to be if anyone could come along and build better applications on top of "their" dataset. That's what Origin is doing. It can seem a little pie-in-the-sky right now, and there's a long way to go, but hey iPhones barely existed 10 years ago, right? :-) I really love the vision behind this idea. Since finally wrapping my brain around Ethereum ~1 year ago, this is one of first applications I've come across that is not only well-suited for a blockchain, but wouldn't be able to exist without it.

Anyway, that's my spiel. Thanks for reading!

I'm really excited to see the marketplaces develop on-top of the protocol.

Good project. Are you considering an ICO?

I would also like to know about the ICO

We do have an upcoming presale. Info in our telegram channel: https://t.me/originprotocol

Hey Robert. We would love to have you involved. Check out the telegram for presale info: https://t.me/originprotocol

We just published a Demo DApp of the product if you want to check out our code / product / Ethereum Rinkeby test network.

https://medium.com/originprotocol/origin-demo-dapp-is-now-live-on-testnet-835ae201c58

What is exact time line for launch of ICO it seems it could take long time or I'm missing something about this project. Nothing into the OP please provide full details about the distribution system of this token.

A good project on the face of it if it can follow the white paper combine with the road map.

Hey there! Jump on the Telegram for any presale info (check the pinned message).

sure ill watch...... why not?

Looks interesting. Will read into the details and check it out!

Would love to have you involved!

Announced a partnership with Jolyy!
https://twitter.com/JolyyProject/status/951518620022173696

Good and concept and vision, the team and the advisors are strong enough to support the project, when the token sale starts?

Where i can find bounty program?  ???

What is the address of your office in San Francisco?

Hi, we have added Origin Protocol to our Swiss ICO review site http://www.kryptovergleich.org/ico/origin-protocol-ico/

I'm thinking of the uber app. Take advantage of your spare time. The origin protocol will revolutionize the use of resources in business. The symbiotic economy, all the participants benefit from what the origin protocol was created. That was amazing.

I really support the project.
There is a need to reduce the impact of sharing economies platforms; every platform is monopolizing its field of interest whereas it is avoiding any regulamentation, damaging both consumers and workers.

I found a project that was listed on coinmarketcap.com as the Odyssey (OCN). The content of the Odyssey (OCN) is "THE FUTURE OF DECENTRALIZED SHARING ECONOMY
THE FOUNDATION OF GLOBAL PEER TO PEER ECOSYSTEM. "I would like to know if the Origin Protocol (The Sharing Economy Without Intermediaries) overlaps the idea and is a competitor to the OCN.

Interesting coin. And also a very interesting idea and a team. Confusing is that the site does not work, and that the project has a connection with the project "TRON" - (TRX).  :-\

I'm not a pro on token economics, but its certainly possible that a project building on Origin could be a "bigger" success than Origin. I.e. gmail is bigger than SMTP, some ecomerce sites built on Wordpress are "more successful" than wordpress. But that's all speculation...who knows what amazing projects could be built on Origin? I'd love it if the next amazon/trillion-dolllar-company was built on us

But does it really matter? If Origin will create something usefull and its token will be used by many people around  the world we all will benefit from this.

I found Origin protocol very interesting idea and will study project more. Team looks solid.

I was check your roademap and It says that token distribution is at Q3 2018 on ur website, does that mean we need to wait until Q3 for it to get listed on the exchange?

Hello!
extremely interesting project!
will there be a bounty campaign?

I have Origin Protocol on my watch list to try to catch its presale whenever that will be announced. It is not final yet this is mentioned on website but no problem everyone can wait for awesome project to come up with full preparation. It is going to be remarkable project of the year in my opinion.

Hi Dev, I trying to understand the token.  Why do you need the Origin token if other dapps will have their own token? The question can also be why do dapps need their own token if the Origin token already exist?  Please help me understand. Thanks so much.

The website says presale is coming soon but when will the token metrics be confirmed?

And besides $3M from Pantera, has Origin Protocol received other VC investments?

Applied for the pre-sale, now fingers crossed that I get in, prolly not tho, too small of a fish.

So the team is based in San Francisco? Although looks like a great project as I read the summary but  how can you deal with the SEC on ICO crackdown? Please refer on this link: https://mobile.nytimes.com/2018/02/28/technology/initial-coin-offerings-sec.html?referer=https://t.co/UUKrTCTth6?amp=1

hello, i am interested in this project, the decentralized economy protocol sounds very cool and i see this project is building a strong commercial network, is there any bounty for this project?

I also didn't see that the reward is at least waiting for the pre-sale to be implemented, and more people need to pay attention to it.

Since there is element of fomo behind this project and seeing that isn't hard to guess that many people will not be able to invest in spite of their best tries in pre-sale. Anyways there will be countless chances to catch good entry points in case someone misses to be part of crowdfunding rounds. But most of the people should be able to enter in these rounds.

Do have a set date for the pre-sale? What will be the total tokens to be sold? Is there any kind of discount or bounty campaign?

This pre-sale is gonna be a nightmare to enter. Just like all hyped ICO's. You might have to set your GAS to like 3 million on your MEW wallet for a higher chance to get in.  :-\

the content of the website is very nice
maybe this reflects a good project too
may I know where this coin will be listed later ?

Pre-sale is actually coming but we need to wait first the updates, because without the updates we cannot move forward to the next procedure that we need to take. With the VC investments case, basically the dev is on process

Hey there! We have not announced anything. Telegram is your best bet to stay updated.  https://t.me/originprotocol

That would be amazing and we would love to see that happen!

We have not made any announcements.

Do we have an official roadmap for 2018?

Don't think I saw an answer to this question. Would be nice to get one :)

Hi Manager, Give us more information about the team, I do not see it, just wanted to see the roadmap and development plan for the near future

You can visit official site for any kind of information. There is whole team plus contributors,advisors and even investors. Pantera Capital is the announced investors and surely there will be others as well. As of roadmap sometimes in Q3 tokens distribution will be and in 2019 fully decentralized Dapp platform will be ready.

good idea! I'll see what's next

Still no answer to the question. Will give this one a miss.

Building on Origin — Announcing even more projects building on our platform (https://medium.com/originprotocol/building-on-origin-announcing-even-more-projects-building-on-our-platform-a6ec9e70930f)

The list of projects based on the Origin Protocol is very impressive!

Hi, I have a question. the presale is for US accredited investors only. What about countries outside the US? Do they need to meet the accredited status also?

What I understood from the disclaimer of pre-Sale, it mentions that this is subject to US regulations and securities commissions and that's all. If still anyone wants to contribute will be treated under this clause. You can change country from the list if you are from from somewhere else. By the way the list of projects being built on this protocol is amazing.

I hope individual investors will be able to participate in ICO, even if with small personal cap.
Because it's huge huge project which is already working.

Origin Protocol - The Future will be Shared https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PANSayUduE
Matthew Liu co-founder of Origin Protocol and I discuss the sharing economy, what are the problems with the existing players, how decentralized systems our going to shake up business, Origin's exciting partners and much more.

I was expecting the announcement for presale at the beginning of this month but my estimates wronged me. They have secured quite impressive partnerships already even more will be seen as project will move forward. I don't get why they are undecided on hard date for starting raising funds though development and preparation is important but it should have been done by now.

The project is in great demand, it's very cool. I like when projects quickly develop

Announcing Origin Protocol’s successful strategic round https://medium.com/originprotocol/announcing-origin-protocols-successful-strategic-round-36c9779a356e

Origin Protocol gets $28.5 million in funding from FBG, BlockAsset, and others


https://medium.com/originprotocol/announcing-origin-protocols-successful-strategic-round-36c9779a356e

Hello!
I read it on the site - "The exact date and details of the Origin presale have not yet been announced."
Who knows when to start selling tokens?

Is this the official ann thread?
Looks like the team is not so active here  :-\

what about the project? any news? I see that in this forum thread no activity. Can I find out about the news ,what is happening to the project at this stage?

Hi!

We just listed on our site and assigned rating "A3" to your ICO Origin Protocol (Origin).

"A3" – High public scores and ratings, but not as good as A1 or A2. Generally low risks. Such ICOs should be definitely paid closest attention to.

Hey guy, Big news. Do you know Yu Pan? Yeah, He is founding engineer at Paypal and then he is one of the first employee at YouTube. And now He joined Origin as a leading research and development engineer. Read this acrtical to know more :
https://medium.com/originprotocol/welcoming-yu-pan-to-the-origin-team-fcce3e3a2166

I have read this project and I can say with full confidence that they will succeed to get the maximum amount of money. I also will invest some small amount of money to become part of their profit sharing scheme through this investment.

Glad i saw that the whitelist was opened again on friday. I hope i got in. Great project!

Hi, everybody. I'm interested in the following question - does Origin Protocol have a working product? I do not understand what are the advantages of using the Origin Protocol. I see there's a lot of hype surrounding the project. But I don't understand why. Who the can to answer me these questions? I apologize for the trouble and thank you!

I see the potential in the Origin project, because in my opinion if the platform is developed by an experienced team,the project should be successful,and as I see this team is really high-level, who already have successfully completed startups.

EDCON Recap from Origin Protocol
The Origin team recently returned from Toronto and the Community Ethereum Development Conference (EDCON). The theme of the conference was “Never Forget Why You Started” and it was a refreshing callback to the motivation for why Ethereum was created. So often, conferences can be solely about making deals or marketing. We had high expectations for for EDCON, and they were surpassed in almost every way. We are more excited than ever to be apart of the Ethereum developer community and Dapp ecosystem. There were many fun moments as well and the Origin team had a blast.

Hi. What's the tokens lock-up period for presale? thnx

I have Origin Protocol on my watch list to try to catch its presale whenever that will be announced. It is not final yet this is mentioned on website but no problem everyone can wait for awesome project to come up with full preparation. It is going to be remarkable project of the year in my opinion.

I have been following your project for a long time now and as someone who travels a lot I believe it has enormous potential. I can see myself using services build on your protocol. Congrats on an amazing project.

I am glad that the team actively participates in conferences. But I wonder what's the result of this participation? The team was able to find new partners?
And one more question-the team plans to participate in Consensus?

I like the idea of the project and believe it has a good chance to succeed because of the strong team that leads it. With over 30 projects already lining up to use Origin Protocol, the tokens is expected to have strong usage once those dApps are launched.

The timeline of releasing the tokens has not been publicly announced, and it could be a while before tokens are distributed and tradable. This makes the project not suitable for a quick turnaround.

We give developers and businesses the opportunity to create decentralized markets on the blockbuster.

Hellow,

Do you have any?
A video
I will like to create a explain in the project in the video

Thank you!

Hi,

Idea looks good. But in practicality, how do you plan to go against aggregators like Airbnb, Uber, etc. A great marketing team and sales team is definitely required IMO.

Good idea guys, I like what you're talking about, lowering commissions is a very hot topic right now, and if you really reduce it by 20-30%%, that's great

We are very excited to announce (https://medium.com/originprotocol/former-head-of-dropbox-nyc-engineering-joins-origin-e8b4f38d1303) that Cuong Do is joining the Origin team. Cuong was the head of Dropbox Engineering in NYC and was part of the founding engineering team of YouTube. He also spent time early on at Inktomi and PayPal.

Cuong is truly a startup legend and has deep expertise in distributed systems and scaling. He had a large responsibility in keeping YouTube's site alive during the early days when it scaled at an incredible pace. In addition to that, he was most recently an engineering manager at Cockroach Labs, an open source distributed database company.

We are thrilled to have him onboard and he joins his former colleague and legend, Yu Pan, who was a founder of PayPal and YouTube's first hire. Origin is incredibly lucky to have such an all star team of engineering talent!

Welcoming Micah Alcorn — The Road from Oklahoma to Blockchain
https://medium.com/originprotocol/welcoming-micah-alcorn-the-road-from-oklahoma-to-blockchain-7e36713446df

How did a commercial real estate broker in Norman, Oklahoma become an integral part of a cutting-edge blockchain team? In short, it’s about passion, skill, and community. Today we are happy to announce that Micah Alcorn is the newest member of Origin Protocol.

As an open source project, Origin Protocol has always taken a unique approach of hiring from within our community. Instead of the traditional approach of candidates submitted a resume, taking a coding test, and then an hour of answering questions in a conference room, we get to interact on real issues in real time. Origin being an open source software project means people “apply” to work on Origin by joining our Discord, checking out or Github, and working on open issues and submitting pull requests. This allows for a diverse group of people all over the world (many of whom may not have the typical software engineering resume) to start working with Origin. This diversity of viewpoints and contribution is incredibly important to us and we are engineering our protocols and platform to be open and permission-less just like our engineering community is.

Micah was one of our very first open source contributors, making his first pull request in January, fixing a particularly nasty CSS issue. From there his contributions just got better and more technical. Soon he moved on to web animations, React, and Javascript. He also learned new libraries with astonishing speed, including Flask, PyBabel Localization, and Web3.

We on the engineering team we were asking, “Who is this Micah guy that is contributing such great code, and such a joy to work with?”

The story begins years ago with Micah looking to improve his real estate firm’s marketing efforts. He built a small website. He amazed his customers with a Google-Earth fly-in. He inadvertently learned Javascript as he added customizations. He started attending a Ruby on Rails Meetup. And before you knew it, he was doing more coding than real estate!

An entrepreneur at heart, it wasn’t long before he teamed up with a cofounder and built WellAttended, a box-office management platform for independent theaters and arts organizations. This led him in 2014 to attend Boulder Startup Week where he met Andrew Hyde. Since then, Micah has attended Startup Week every year.

So when Andrew joined Origin Protocol in December, Micah took notice and began to follow our progress on Github. Soon he was making his first pull requests, and the journey began.

Micah has become an indispensable part of the Origin team and we are happy to make this official. Those of you who have attended our weekly open engineering calls will recognize Micah as the guy who keeps us all in order and has his finger on the pulse of our many repos, pull requests, and issues. He’s also an integral part of the product team, working out UI/UX issues with our cofounder Matt Liu and our designer Aure Gimon.

If you are also passionate about what we are building at Origin and want to work alongside amazing coworkers like Micah Alcorn, Andrew Hyde, Coleman Maher, Jon Hearty, Josh Fraser, Stan James, and Yu Pan, please reach out. We’re look forward to your first pull request!

Hi Guy. I just read that CanYa will use ShareRing's ShareLedger Blockchain. How will that affect the Origin protocol and Origin's partnership with CanYa?

Very cool project!!!

There were two new members included in team whom presence definitely will be suitable and development of the project. Origin Protocol as brand it has got good attention and became well recognized already. They need to finalize the next steps to make sure of involvement of individuals as they also do great marketing in their regional areas. I have been waiting for this for months.

Got my eye on this project. Any news since March? I see the newbie poster hasn't been around for a while...

Hey guys ! So this sale only for accredited investors right  ? no chance to take part for people who doesn't have papers where sad that he earning  200k$+ per year ?

I've heard many other ICO projects have worked with Origin Protocol.
I think this project is very promising. However, this ANN topic is very quiet, very unfortunate.

 I wonder if there's any Bounty for articles . If so I would like to join it.

Origin Protocol has announced next funding round on Coinlist. Round hard cap: $6.6M. Each participant must confirm $200k annual income for the last 2 years or net worth over $1M.

https://medium.com/originprotocol/origins-next-funding-round-now-live-on-coinlist-147096f6a906

origin is a very promising project with high security and good deal life use case.it will help to distrupt the sharing economy by removing intermediaries. Their blockchain platform will  empower developers and businesses to build decentralized marketplaces. I think its a good one to watchout for.

It is understandable why they went for accredited investors restriction in changed scenario which pushed the small investors away. Let these big investors provide the funds for project and our chances to buy at best prices may appear once it hits exchanges. When token is available in free markets it is independent from influence inn long run. I have eyes on the development anyways.

Is that really what they do? I think for the low hardcap they use to limit it with strategic and or with private presale they already have a good amount of funds. If we take on the project it is really highly potential and now after the chains its time for the protocols to get into the market. Only those who are capable of bringing a good work will soon left in the market. They have established an influence to its community and good support i don't able to participate in crowdsale maybe i will just wait it on exchange.

Only a few hours left to register for the CoinList Round: https://coinlist.co/origin

Personally I'm not a fan of this model, as well as the minimum contribution amount being 1,000 USD, so 2+ ETH. Compared to other ICO's where it is usually 0.5-1 ETH, or a minimum or 200-300 USD. It's a shame they have taken this approach of pushing away the smaller investors, like myself, who would otherwise participate in the token sale. Projects find price stability a lot sooner when the token distrubtion is wider and more refined, instead this will likely be a another project dominated by whales, such as ICO's that sell 90% at pre-sale and only allow a minority of smaller investors to play "gas wars" over the reamining supply.

That said, I like the project and believe it has real potential, but given we are in a bear market I won't be investing once it reaches exchanges, given the current token metrics. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this project for the future though. Best of luck to everyone who gets into this one! No doubt it'll sell out fast.

Our minimum was $1k and max was $25k. Over 50% gone within 2 hours. Still a bit of allocation there but closing out very soon. Nice to be able to have a bit of a cap for people (not 1ETH) and time to fund (not a 5 min sellout gas war).

Teach me the ways! We spend too much time on Telegram and Medium.

Great platform origin protocol is worth following as a project,hope the team will ensure the roadmap is followed diligently and also ensure a prompt feedback to the community in order to increase the community trust

How do you expect to have the value of your tokens increased? I believe this is a great project to invest for the product, but being able to earn money besides trading is indeed very good

Thanks! So far so good. Our GitHub is really what I pay attention to: https://github.com/originprotocol

Very true, it is all necessary if you want to have a great community. It's as busy as ever to reply to questions from the community to increase the confidence that's getting better.

Not only that paper bro, we must be accredited investors or investment funds according to all SEC rules to have an opportunity to invest. Strange decision for ICO but i think they know what they doing.

It is a pity, i wanted to participate, but who knows, maybe there will be another public sale round if they not collect their hard cap, the status bar on icodrops shows 80% and the token sale runs from 18 June...

Update on originprotocol CoinList Round: over 50% funded in the first 2 hours! $6.6M cap:  https://coinlist.co/origin

Welcoming Kay Yoo to the Origin Team!
https://medium.com/originprotocol/welcoming-kay-yoo-to-the-origin-team-ff04e36c0ca4

The project fits very well into the general concept of blockage, both technologically and from the point of view of business processes.

Thanks so much!

In the telegram group this project has more than 37,000 members 8) (https://t.me/originprotocol). There is a very active communication - discussion of news, forecasts, rumors.

I like this project but i don't like there sale with all this stuff about accredited investors. I think that blockchain should avoid all this stuff.

Did you know we have the cofounder of PayPal on our team? It's been such a great experience working alongside Yu Pan

https://medium.com/originprotocol/welcoming-yu-pan-to-the-origin-team-fcce3e3a2166

We have a very active admin team which welcomes people and answers their questions directly... which cuts down on the rumors etc. Would love to have more active discussion!

Andrew

You and me!

We have to respect the laws of the place we are in and we are based in the US.

Once the token is live you will be able to use it to book a house, car, service or experience! The protocols are truly interesting.

We had almost half of our engineering call in the same room this week.

We would love for you to join in on our weekly call. You can find more information about it here
https://www.originprotocol.com/en/developers

Origin Protocol empowers developers and businesses to build distributed markets on the blockchain. Origin Protocol allows you to easily create and manage lists for use of asset and service segments. Open and shared data encourage the innovation of developers and businesses.

Very interesting project. Usual marketplace but you look on the field with a great potential. this section is developing very fast and its hard to find dependable producer for some difficult and substandard tasks. Good luck

What I Learned From Our Origin Protocol Offsite

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/1*aHEcmjqum0RFnkTpLWR-TA.jpeg

The entire Origin Protocol core team got together in San Francisco last week! It was an amazing chance to bond and really develop some of our product offerings. We had a blast and I think it is a good time to reflect on what we are working on and why it is working so well.

PayPal, YouTube, Google, Dropbox, and now Origin — Welcome Franck Chastagnol

When building technology startups, one of the best predictors for long-term success is the strength of the core team. Even as product development and market conditions can change unexpectedly over time, a highly-functioning, mission-driven team can adapt, ship product, and pivot its way to eventual success.
Today I’m ecstatic to announce that another world-class engineer, Franck Chastagnol, has joined Origin Protocol. Franck started programming at the age of 8 with an Amstrad CPC 664. He and I have known each other since he was the engineering lead on my very first successful product launch at YouTube. Together we built Claim Your Content, YouTube’s earliest content detection, licensing, and monetization product. This was an integral launch when YouTube was still a young 35-person startup figuring out how to effectively partner with companies like Universal Music Group and the BBC. Our work was pivotal in establishing a sustainable business model when it wasn’t yet obvious that YouTube would be a profitable business that could work effectively with content partners all across the world.

Sharing economy is the trend. If you look into the statistics, the sharing economy is growing fast and is expected to grow from about $14 billion in 2014 to $335 billion by the year 2025. Origin Protocol looks like a great project, glad i found it. I'll be watching closely to see all the developments. Another project on my radar fpr sharing economy is Uchain, feel free to check out some nice overview on it:

Thanks and best wishes to the team!

super excited about what we are doing and we hope you are too on us thanks for giving supporting such execlant platform

intermarry economies without any interference by make own worth in marketplace is that mean?

I really hope that the information regarding any bounty campaign will be available for this project.

I am also interested in the question of bounty. This thread started on January 9, 2018, but I did not find any information about generosity anywhere. Write, please, information, there is a company of bounty and links where you can participate! Thank you!

A sharing economy marketplace on blockchain is what origin aims to offer which is built on an open, distributed, and shared data layer to increase transparency which I think is a pretty great concept and would be able to attract many investors and a large userbase. The team behind it is reputable and well-experienced .If i had to invest in it then I definitely would have.

The Origin Demo DApp Goes Global

The Origin Protocol team and open source developers have been hard at work building a platform to enable truly decentralized marketplaces. Today we are happy to announce a new version of our demo DApp and the release of version 0.7 of Origin-js.
https://medium.com/originprotocol/the-origin-demo-dapp-goes-global-530e9b51c022

I checked Spin.pm which is built on the original protocol. The transaction happense in the Fiat currency. How is that possible? Can I build one using INR?

This is very good update with demo release but my question is about the status of the project. I have lost temporarily interest when I saw it wasn't for everyone to invest. Is the funding round is already over ? If yes, when listing on exchanges to provide small investors chance to get involve after buying from there easily.

If you look closely, we can conclude that This company is one of the most serious and promising today

I think that you exaggerate)) :) This project not can be the most promising. There's a lot more interesting projects - such as EOS or AION.

Join Origin Protocol for a meetup and fireside chat in London on 9/05. Join @jonhearty (Head of Business Development) and @unicorn (Head of Community) for a discussion followed by drinks.

Introducing Origin Messaging: Decentralized, Secure, and Auditable
https://medium.com/originprotocol/introducing-origin-messaging-decentralized-secure-and-auditable-13c16fe0f13e

I like the idea of the project and believe it has a good chance to succeed because of the strong team that leads it. With over 30 projects already lining up to use Origin Protocol, the tokens is expected to have strong usage once those dApps are launched.

Is this any different from TRAC origin protocol? Is it the same project?

And I find this project really promising.After all, the platform connects the blockchain with real life and real needs,so I believe that this is the direction that the Origin team chose,today is developing and very profitable.So that success on my view here is obvious

Origin Protocol London Meetup: Protocols of Blockchain, Fireside Chat

Origin is building a platform that enables the creation of many decentralized marketplaces, allowing buyers and sellers to connect and transact directly on the blockchain. The company is building a set of protocols, developer libraries, and a decentralized application using the Ethereum blockchain and IPFS, with an initial focus on disrupting sharing economy marketplaces. Origin's mission is to reduce or remove transaction fees, promote open and transparent commerce, redistribute value more fairly to buyers and sellers, and empower the 2 billion currently unbanked individuals around the world to participate in digital marketplaces. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/origin-protocol-london-meetup-protocols-of-blockchain-fireside-chat-tickets-49176836241

The expected future launch of Filecoin will add an important incentive system to ensure the durability of data over the IPFS network.

I find this a very good idea and it has a good chance to be a successful application with a strong team to lead it. I hope to see its growth in the near future.

Hi, I have a question. the presale is for US accredited investors only. What about countries outside the US?

It is still showing presale investment opportunity with minimum of 25000 dollars which is the same when I last time visited your site. Hasn't the status of invest changes already ? Do you have any plan to involve non accredited investors in future for main round of investment or they will be able to pick up tokens from open market ?

Origin Protocol Expands to Greater China
https://medium.com/originprotocol/origin-protocol-expands-to-greater-china-f6d5440b7948

At Origin, we are committed to enabling decentralized marketplaces all over the world. We are a global company from day one and have developer partners and investors from all over the world. One of our highest priorities as a company is establishing and growing our presence in China.

The Origin Protocol team recently returned from our third time visiting China in the past 6 months and we wanted to give a special greeting to our Chinese speaking community. We highly value our Chinese speaking community, and Greater China is just as an important market to us as the United States is. Matthew Liu, co-founder of Origin, is a proud Chinese/Taiwanese-American, and we are also very honored to have Yu Pan, the only Chinese-born Paypal founder and member of the “Paypal Mafia” on our team. During this trip, we hosted packed Origin meetups in Hangzhou and Hong Kong, and we also spoke at several events in Shanghai.

Nice project 😋😋😋

Quite a strong protocol and decentralized marketplaces are valuable and have a strong future. The team members have experience in launching tech companies.

Absolutely big deal to see the beta launch on Main Net already which was announced on social media few hours ago. It has been long time since I have Origin Protocol on my future's plans list. Of course, I will be putting my hands on the beta app to test it and see how it goes in real time. Developers did amazing work in such short time to make this release possible.

Origin Protocol aims to revolutionize and replace many existing sharing economy marketplaces such as Airbnb, Fiverr, and Uber.

We hope this is the first of a long series:

A house in Italy was rented from @tripscommunity on the Origin Marketplace DApp yesterday. This is just the first of many rentals to happen on Origin as we push closer and closer to bringing mainstream adoption to a decentralized sharing economy.

Matthew Liu is the Co-Founder of Origin Protocol, a protocol for creating sharing economy marketplaces using the Ethereum blockchain and IPFS. Matt was the 3rd Project Manager at YouTube (acquired by Google) and VP of Project Management at Qwiki (acquired by Yahoo) and Bonobos (acquired by Walmart). Matt will discuss how Origin is creating a sharing economy without intermediaries.

Several other projects and organizations have already shown interest to use Origin Protocol. What has to be mentioned is that Origin has already signed partnerships with other DAPPs that is awesome.

Origin DApp Gets Editable Listings and Support for Multiple Items

Origin Protocol was founded on the audacious goal of replacing the myriad of centralized online marketplaces into one open source protocol. Instead of hundreds of proprietary data silos, marketplaces can now store listings on the decentralized blockchain. These marketplaces range from simple transactions like someone selling a used bicycle as on Craigslist to complex transactions like connecting a rider with nearby drivers in real time like Uber. https://medium.com/originprotocol/origin-dapp-gets-editable-listings-and-support-for-multiple-items-34aa3aaed36d

Origin Partners With Bonded Finance (https://medium.com/originprotocol/origin-partners-with-bonded-finance-9c69ce1881d9)
About Bonded Finance
The Bonded platform was created to incubate and deploy experimental, high-yield, smart-contract driven, financial instruments that push the bounds of open finance. Bonding is an algorithmic model that aims to unlock, aggregate and de-risk ~50 billion in dormant value distributed amongst untapped digital assets by allowing supporters of qualifying altcoin projects the opportunity to borrow against these assets or pool them and start earning.

and maybe this news bring new demands and push the price up

when staking?

When is OUSD going live on exchanges?

OGN is now listed on CreamdotFinance.

You can now lend or borrow OGN at app.cream.finance without relying on centralized intermediaries.

We are proud to announce that our first OGN buyback was completed today. This is just the first of many,  and we will be automating our buyback process ASAP.

Visit our OUSD analytics dashboard where the transaction hashses are shared publicly.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Et6-cr3XYAERZim?format=jpg&name=large

it seems that the OGN moment has wanted to start and we have noticed that it has slowly stolen my attention so I really want to be interested in buying and storing OGN tokens, and this is only the beginning I believe in the future it will definitely increase much more

Well done Originators on winning the  http://www.gamestop.finance/ vote to list $OGN as a staking asset from Feb 15th until Feb 22nd.

$OGN single asset staking and $OGN - $GME yield farming has now commenced.

Their current APYs are 156.23% and 6359.57% respectively.

https://t.me/originprotocol/495694

Like in the near future the OGN price will increase according to the information I heard, namely the buyback program, but everything is slowly and I see that the price is also more stable at $ 0.38- $ 0.41. I will definitely climb slowly.

OGN has increased x4 since late 2020

that's very good, and you are right the increase from 2020 is very rapid, but I am assuming the OGN price can go up more than that because the buyback program is enough to push it up even though slowly, let's wait it won't take long

That's a fantastic price increase, friends, but it will increase even more due to the buyback, and I've seen this is only an early stage, which means that it will definitely be continued in the future according to the information they provide.

Our first move into the #NFT space was a record-setting auction with @3LAU. Since then we've been inundated with interest from iconic artists, brands, and businesses.

Here's how it all happened, and what our plans are moving forward.

exited news for origin profotocl
Binance has announced the launch of OGN perpetual futures contracts that enable margin trading on futures contracts with up to 25x leverage. These contracts are USDT-denominated and are cross margin, meaning traders can use their entire account for leverage. Previously, OGN margin trading was restricted to isolated margin, meaning traders had to manually set up funding for leveraged OGN positions, and the maximum leverage was limited to 5x.

now everyone can trade OUSD and OGN on Kucoin
To receive yield from OUSD on KuCoin, users must stake their OUSD on Pool-X, the staking exchange powered by KuCoin. Yield will be distributed daily at 18:00 PM UTC and will be equivalent to the amount of yield (and roughly the APY) from on-chain OUSD. If no rebasing occurs in the previous 24 hours before the daily distribution time, no yield will be distributed. This is a rare event and OUSD usually rebases several times a day. If no rebasing occurs in 24 hours for some reason, the next rebase should yield higher than normal.

This project caught my attention not only because it best suits my need, but mainly do to its pursuit of digital representation of real assets, as expressed in the Litepaper: "tokenized representations of physical goods".  I am an enthusiast of real currencies, as well as the vehicles that deliver them.  I find vehicles that are free of dominion to best suit free markets.

Having said that, following is my inquiry; I would like to know how I can obtain a digital representation for my real product in your digital token of origin protocol.  In particular I have excess milk after milking my cow lately.  It is only a temporary surplus while my friends are out of town so I wouldn't want anyone holding my token to come knocking when the surplus is no longer.  I saw the exchanges where the token is traded, but have not come across any way to link it to the milk.

Also, is there a marketplace where others will have access to the milk?  The digital shape of those alone is fascinating.

I greatly appreciate what you all and the team is doing in the direction of this thought.  After all, it is bad money that begets bad results and good money that accommodates good.
