What is Origin Protocol?
Origin Protocol (OGN) is a blockchain platform for building and running decentralised marketplaces and NFT applications. It was founded in 2017 by Josh Fraser and Matthew Liu, who set out to cut intermediaries from e-commerce by connecting buyers and sellers directly through smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain.
The OGN token handles governance, staking, and rewards inside the ecosystem. Origin Protocol powers a range of applications, including Origin Story, an NFT launchpad for creators, along with other peer-to-peer marketplace tools. Users can earn OGN by verifying their profile, referring others, sharing content, and taking part in marketplace activity.
Because it is built on Ethereum, Origin Protocol slots into the wider Ethereum ecosystem and its established tooling. OGN holders can also vote on decisions that shape how the platform develops from here.
