ORIGYN operates a unique governance design, shared between vertical industry partners, serving as Nodes, and token holders. Nodes mint certificates, govern the platform and function as a gateway to the global community.
Nodes are a powerful part of the ORIGYN Ecosystem. They can be voted in by the industry, inherited through a succession procedure or, in early days for a vertical, can be made via a proposition by ORIGYN Foundation.
Token holders have the right to participate in governance (e.g., propose new features, vote on their merits, etc.).

ORIGYN digital twins contain item identification, authentication and ownership data minted in the form of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Our technology surpasses other certification solutions in the market due to our advanced feature mapping and data capture capabilities.
ORIGYN Foundation leverages the Internet Computer (IC)—the first internet-scale and web-speed public blockchain—to mint, maintain and transfer ownership of digital twins. The Internet Computer is the first blockchain in the world that can host large amounts of data inside smart contracts. Given this capacity, everything may stay on the blockchain during this process, making it a truly decentralized option for NFTs.
ORIGYN is deployed upon a comprehensive decentralized tech stack that supports open industry ecosystems, their tokenization and governance by industry participants. We maintain a comprehensive science-led R&D program dedicated to continually expanding the art of what’s possible.
The infrastructure that supports ORIGYN creates a revolutionary ecosystem designed to build open, tamperproof, decentralized, inspectable, transparent and trustworthy solutions.
ORIGYN creates powerful biometric digital certificates that prove authenticity, identity and ownership of valuable objects and store their data forever on the blockchain.

NFTs are about more than a single representation of digital art or even the capture of a moment in time. They can bring like-minded individuals together to create commerce and connect about shared passions. They can also reward creativity, enabling the creator of the asset to remain the copyright holder of the IP and to receive compensation as the NFT is bought and sold down the line. They also clear the pathway for novel ownership opportunities and “velvet-rope” digital experiences that allow consumers and creators to connect and engage. In some cases, they can also include biometric features and item-specific data that can be used to certify the authenticity of objects.
Well, in a direct sense, you don’t. ORIGYN powers creators and industries through marketplaces with the tools and technologies they need to tokenize certificates of ownership for both natively digital and physical goods, backed by an ORIGYN guarantee. Given this approach, ORIGYN also enables ecosystem participants to define new experiences that elevate the entire NFT industry.
