Key metrics of $OGN

OGN token release schedule

The following chart represents the number and breakdown of all OGN tokens that are to be released into circulation on a monthly basis. The Foundation Reserves tokens will continue to be released after July 2024.

The Origin Platform is built on Ethereum and stores all critical data such as pricing and availability on chain. Other metadata such as descriptions, images, reputation, and reviews are stored on the Interplanetary File System (IPFS) and cryptographically linked to the contract.

Origin user accounts are wallets that have optional identity contracts associated with them adhering to the ERC-725 standard. Listings are created using a front-end DApp to publish a JSON data object to a publicly writable IPFS gateway. This JSON data object conforms to a set of standards and validation rules to be considered valid on the network. The IPFS node publishes the listing to the IPFS network making the listing available via distributed computers around the world to anyone who knows the content hash. The content hash of the listing is then sent to a smart contract which formally publishes the listing and also references pricing and availability information along with any specified booking rules and policies.

Listings can be searched, browsed, and booked via the frontend Origin or third-party DApp which connects to an open-source contract indexing server, making it possible to search and filter all public listings. Once a listing has been selected, a user can make a booking by sending payment to the booking smart contract along with the IPFS hash of the chosen listing and the desired interval to book. The smart contract will verify that the booking is valid and handle the transfer of funds between the buyer and the seller, including the escrow of funds when applicable. Once a transaction is complete, users are encouraged to leave a rating and review. Once again, the content is stored on IPFS and only the content hash is stored on Ethereum. Users are able to establish their reputations over time with verified transactions, building a unified reputation across multiple listing verticals.

The Origin Protocol seeks to create a shared economy marketplace that offer buyers and sellers control over their data, drastically reduced transaction fees, and identity verification and reputation scores. These reputation scores are meant to be portable across various shared economy verticals so sellers can readily provide services in many different forms knowing they'll be trusted to accomplish the task.

The Origin DApp is an open-source HTML and JavaScript application that enables buyers and sellers to meet, communicate and transact with each other. It also allows sellers a means to create, manage, validate and publish listings. There will likely be many front-end applications that will build on top of the Origin protocol.

The Origin token is used for governance of the platform to influence the direction of software development and business policies. It is also used to "boost" listings to give them higher placement and visibility in search results. Marketplace operators can earn tokens from boosted listings providing an an inventive to feature and promote them.
