It's time to replace rent-seeking middlemen

Harnessing the power of the Ethereum blockchain, listings are managed via a secure and transparent system that acts as a neutral third party. Buyers and sellers share the 20-30% transaction fees that currently go to companies like Uber, Airbnb, Fiverr, and Getaround.

If Airbnb were being started today, it would've been a peer-to-peer cooperative model based on a blockchain - Joey Krug, Augur

Origin Protocol nabs $28 million for peer-to-peer blockchain platform. Token sale fuels funding round; about 45 companies have committed as customers

Origin aims to create a set of protocols that allow developers and businesses to build a decentralized sharing economy marketplace on a blockchain.

Origin Protocol, which uses the ethereum blockchain, enables buyers and sellers to interact with each other in an effective manner.

A decentralized digital ledger that allows for transactions between users without an intermediary (and without its fees), is poised to reinvent the user experience in the sharing economy.

It sounds utopic and downright revolutionary: a world of benevolent social enterprises and non-profit organizations seeking to empower consumers and give them back their privacy rights, and maybe save them some money too.

Origin Protocol uses the Ethereum Blockchain to help buyers and sellers transact in a decentralized environment without traditional intermediaries.

Imagine an Airbnb with zero commissions and completely democratic. The platform is not controlled by a Silicon Valley giant but offered free to anyone with access to the internet.

The Origin Protocol is a set of open-source blockchain protocols for buyers and sellers of services like car-sharing or home-sharing to transact on a decentralized, open web platform.

Origin Protocol offers an entire blockchain-based platform to allow anyone to create their own property-sharing business.

We want to create a future where buyers and sellers can transact in the wild by using neutral tools that don't favor either party.

The sharing economy ends up sharing a ton of labor’s earnings with middlemen like Uber and Airbnb.
