Origin to create first VC-backed launchpad on HBAR
Origin is a new web3 platform where investors can help fund promising upcoming decentralized financial companies, projects, and dApps.

Hosted projects are vetted by Origin before appearing on the platform. Through the selective process, users will be able to invest alongside the world’s leading funds where deals are vetted by an expert team.
According to Origin, all deals are led and secured by tier-one institutional investors:
Deal evaluations consider narrative, team track record, product-market fit, early user traction, social media presence, and general retail interest.
Beyond qualitative measures, projects are analyzed based on deal terms, tokenomics, return potential, competitive landscape, and time frames.
For Origin, selecting high-quality projects that are solving real issues in the world and in web3 will be of the highest priority.

Curated deals will come from Ondo Finance, Seedify, Portal, nillion, MAVIA, and more, proving Origin’s long list of partners.
According to Origin, Hedera was chosen for its institutional-grade network that is currently partnered with some of the world’s largest organizations. With HBAR, Origin hopes to create the first “VC-backed” launchpad on Hedera Hashgraph.
