Data organization is more difficult today simply because there is so much more of it.
When you have a data overload, it bogs down processing times which can reduce the ability of people to access this information.
3) If we can't find a way to access and share these huge amounts of data in a safe, secure and organized way most business are going to have a really tough time moving forward.
Especially because data overload isn't going to get any better. It'll keep growing.
4) ENTER ORIGINTRAIL
The OriginTrail blockchain was created to enable trusted data sharing along supply chains.
It allows companies, organizations, and even other blockchains to safely and securely share information in its fully decentralized knowledge graph network.
5) The data in the network is secured through monitoring activities of oracles and artificial intelligence agents.
The OriginTrail protocol allows for expiration of data, and sensitive data can be protected through the use of zero-knowledge methods.
6) At its most basic level OriginTrail is a collection of decentralized network nodes holding and sharing data.
The network’s TRAC token is what brings everything together on the network, and it can be used to keep data immutable and nodes honest.
7) The protocol is designed to address three challenges that all enterprises face when attempting to connect their legacy systems to blockchains.
• Supply Chain Data Fragmentation
• Supply Chain Data Centralization
•Sensitive Data Protection
8) OriginTrail addresses these three challenges above through its four core technological features:
• Interoperability and Data Integrity
• Data Immutability
• Stability & Cost Efficiency
• Network Incentivization via Token Staking
Let's go more in depth below 👇
9) Interoperability and Data Integrity
In order to promote interoperability the OriginTrail network was built in accordance with the GS1 and W3C standards.
Using these global standards allows data to be aligned efficiently, even when taken from multiple sources.
10) Data Immutability
Data is made immutable by creating a tamper-proof cryptographic hash of the data.
This is similar in nature to a fingerprint, and after being created the hash is placed on the blockchain.
Later it can be used to verify that the data has not been modified.
11) Stability & Cost Efficiency
Most of the heavy lifting that involves data integrity and interoperability occurs offchain.
That allows the ODN to operate more efficiently and cheaply.
Because it is an open source system it is easy to deploy and integrate with legacy systems.
12) Network Incentivization via Token Staking
The TRAC token serves several functions:
• Compensate data creators, holders, and consumers.
• The staking system that keeps all the parties involved in the network honest.
13) These four core technological features work together to overcome one of the serious limitations in a centralized blockchain solution.
keeping trust between all the parties in the network.
14) TRAC TOKENOMICS
The token (TRAC) is an ERC-20 utility token used to power the entire OriginTrail ecosystem.
It was pre-mined with a total supply of 500 million tokens, and is non-inflationary.
Most of the supply is already unlocked today (Circ supply 70%+).
15) TRAC UTILITY
There are six ways in which the TRAC token provides utility.
The network is incapable of functioning without the token.
The project has been around since the release of an Alpha version of their platform in 2013.
OriginTrail itself was formed in 2011. This makes them one of the older blockchain projects around.
17) The CEO and a founding member of OriginTrail is Tomaz Levak.
He is also a member of the Ethereum Enterprise Alliance Supply Chain working group and has experience managing tech projects in Europe and the Middle East.
18) OriginTrail’s second founding member and COO is Ziga Drev.
He has previously managed complex supply chain setups in Europe and Asia, giving him deep experience in space that has helped in building OriginTrail.
19) The third founding member of OriginTrail and its CTO is Branimir Rakić. He has been working to introduce blockchain to supply chains since 2016.
20) OriginTrail has been tested by many global brands.
It also attracted a huge amount of partners with an impressive growing list.
21) OriginTrail goes way beyond the basics and features I've listed.
Any thread wouldn't be able to hold the length of a full explanation.
As such I recommend to take a look at this fabulous community created website for a deeper look.
OriginTrail is tackling real-world problems in the supply chain and easing the pain point experienced in the transition to blockchain based solutions.
OriginTrail creates a platform that allows for trust, easy integration and improved tracking and data storage.
23) OriginTrail is not one of the over-hyped crypto projects that are so common.
It’s a project that’s been years in the making.
If they can continue this growth trajectory they should become a strong force within the supply chain industry.

1) The past year you've heared the market talk about:
• The fed
• Interest rates
• Quantative tightening
These things have LARGELY been responsible for the entire crypto bear cycle.
It's also responsible to help PREDICT the next bull cycle.
🧵👇
2) To understand the market situation in simple terms and to go forward from here we need to start at the beginning of the historic bull run we had in 2020.
On March 12, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the Coronavirus a pandemic.
3) Governments around the world placed entire countries on lockdown.
COVID sent panicked investors to rush for the safety of cash, sending all liquid markets down sharply.
It was then that the US Federal Reserve stepped in.
2) There's a well known blockchain maximalist argument that says:
"Network X is destined to carry the whole blockchain space on its shoulders".
It's not uncommon to hear every blockchain being evaluated depending on its potential to be an Ethereum or Bitcoin “killer.”
3) Some people (and mostly the smart ones imo) believe that interoperability should be the foundation of Web3.
A believe that the future is multi-chain and we will live in a world where not all blockchains compete with each other but co-exist AND complement each other.
2) Although cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology has become increasingly popular the last few years, truth is the industry is still in its infancy.
For REAL adoption to occur (we haven't) this technology needs to be universally useful.
3) There are 4 big problems that still plague this industry today.
• Blockchains can't work together.
• Inconsistent data.
• Limited scalability.
• Real world isolation.
If we can't solve these problems the industry won't see global scale adoption.
