Why does it exist?

OTTP enables ownership, recognition, and open collaboration for all.

The status quo:

• Contributions are locked into platforms like LinkedIn and GitHub.

• Builders choose between accelerators, vying for social media visibility, cold DMing investors, bootstrapping, buying into founder communities, and often left without credit for their contributions when the project doesn’t work out.

• Contributors choose between job applications, trying to network their way deeper into community, free work without guaranteed credit, or buying into projects to get involved.

People are stuck in web2 ways and business models. We’re calling for a paradigm shift.

How OTTP changes the game:

Accessible infrastructure opens opportunities for people to easily participate, co-create with others, be recognized, and share in the upside.

• Users own their graph and can build a reputation that can be freely transferred across applications.

• Developers can freely build on the protocol, and innovate with the shared dataset.

Open collaboration democratizes innovation by fostering access, creativity, and healthy competition in a connected ecosystem.
