Origin, the premier launchpad on Hedera offering curated investment opportunities, emerged from stealth to introduce a democratized investment vehicle that will revolutionize today’s venture capital landscape.
In 2024, venture capitalists invested $11.5 billion in crypto startups while crypto deal valuations increased faster than the general industry in Q2 and Q3. As markets across the world further embrace the crypto industry, establishing new regulations and creating guidelines that foster innovation, 2025 is set to bring even more VC interest into crypto.
In most cases, VCs receive exclusive access to early-stage investment opportunities in projects with high-growth potential and often rely on expensive resources to conduct market research, giving them an advantage over retail investors. Every day users often miss out on the opportunity to invest in early-stage projects at the same level as large VC firms.
Origin is on a mission to level the playing field between VCs and retail investors by providing access to high-quality crypto projects to everyday users, offering opportunities to easily invest alongside the top VCs in the industry. Origin is poised to foster a more inclusive and equitable investment ecosystem by leveraging decentralized technology to modernize the investment process. From conducting extensive research to performing due diligence, Origin does all the heavy lifting for investors to diversify their crypto portfolios.
“The future of crypto isn’t just about speculation - it’s about transformation. Origin is leading this charge on Hedera, unlocking early access to enterprise-grade projects that will redefine how businesses and users interact with decentralized technology. This is more than another web3 platform; it’s a shift toward a more open, efficient, and accessible digital economy for the everyday person,” says Eric Faust, Chief of Business Development at Origin.
Projects listed on Origin will go through a strict vetting process spearheaded by Origin’s team of experts. The Origin team plans to open up investment opportunities at a rate of 1-2 projects per month. As for those interested in investing through Origin, users can sign up and connect their wallet to receive early access when the platform launches. In the coming months, Origin plans to roll out educational questing modules and staking capabilities designed for users to earn points.
“Origin is redefining industry standards and empowering investors from all backgrounds,” added Alexander Russman, Vice President at The HBAR Foundation and Head of the Consumer Engagement Fund at Hedera Network. “We at Hedera are thrilled to support Origin in its vision to democratize investments while boosting transparency and inclusivity for investors in our ecosystem. With Origin, we can build a more secure and trusted decentralized future together.”
Origin is built on Hedera, a proof-of-stake blockchain primed for the tokenization of digital and real-world assets. As a legacy brand in the web3 space, Hedera has already processed over 70 billion mainnet transactions and attracted several leading names such as Google, Dell, IBM, LG, and more to be part of its governing council.
