June 2025 Token Holder Update

Summary

June marked a major milestone for Origin Protocol with the official launch of OGN buybacks on June 30th. For the first time, 100% of protocol revenue is driving sustained buy pressure for OGN directly on the open market.

In parallel, Origin continued to expand its product footprint across Base, Plume, Sonic, and Ethereum, adding new integrations that strengthen TVL and protocol revenue. With buybacks live and the flywheel spinning, OGN stakers are now positioned to directly benefit as protocol growth accelerates.

Origin Token (OGN) Buybacks Now Live

The OGN buyback program is now fully operational. As of June 30th, protocol-funded buybacks have begun — introducing new, sustained buy pressure for OGN on the open market.

All protocol revenue across OETH, Super OETH, OUSD, OS, and the ARM is now being used to market buy OGN on a recurring basis. In parallel, DAO assets are being deployed over time to further accelerate buybacks. These purchases are fully transparent and trackable onchain, with real-time updates available via our new account: @OGN_alerts.

OGN buybacks have large implications for both OGN holders and OGN stakers (xOGN):

  • An estimated 10% of OGN supply will be bought from the market.
  • OGN staking rewards are anticipated to increase in the coming weeks.
  • Over $4M in new buy pressure is coming to OGN.
  • $190M+ in TVL is now earning for xOGN.

This marks the start of a new phase for OGN: real revenue, no new emissions, and consistent buybacks directly tied to protocol growth. As TVL expands and protocol earnings scale across multiple networks, OGN stakers stand to benefit directly from the ongoing flywheel now in motion.

This means strong APYs for xOGN, and no new OGN entering circulation from staking rewards. Holders can stake OGN to position themselves to earn a share of Origin’s growing protocol revenue.

Ecosystem Updates

Origin expanded its reach across Ethereum, Base, Plume, and Sonic in June. Some of our favorite integrations from June are listed below:

  • Compound Finance added support for Super OETH on Base, allowing users to loop Super OETH for leveraged ETH yield up to 30% APY.
  • OpenOcean added support for the ARM S Vault, enabling the vault to capture trading volume across Sonic AMMs.
  • Mystic added support for Super OETH on Plume. Users can now borrow ETH against their superOETHp to gain liquidity or leverage their position.
  • Silo launched a new money market in collaboration with Origin and Pendle. Users can borrow against their Pendle PT-wOS, enabling looping fixed yield positions.

Product Metrics

Every month, we give updates on how Origin’s products perform. Here’s the latest on yield and TVL for our multi-chain product suite:

  • Origin Ether (OETH) earned a 30-day trailing APY of 2.7% at $103M in TVL.
  • Super OETH on Base earned a 30-day trailing APY of 4.75% at $61.7M in TVL.
  • Super OETH on Plume earned a 30-day trailing APY of 5.8% at $1.8M in TVL.
  • Origin Sonic (OS) earned a 30-day trailing APY of 4.8% at $11.9M in TVL.
  • The ARM ETH Vault earned a 30-day trailing APY of 1.8% at $965K in TVL.
  • Origin Dollar (OUSD) earned a 30-day trailing APY of 5.4% at $10M in TVL.

Next up, Super OETH on Plume will deploy its Rooster AMO, deepening liquidity and improving yield for holders. Most superOETHp reserves are currently held in Wrapped OETH, and additional WETH reserves will be deployed to Rooster’s liquidity pool with the deployment of the AMO.

Additionally, the ARM ETH Vault will soon integrate lending markets, routing idle ETH to earn lending yield when not being used to arbitrage stETH prices. Following this upgrade, we anticipate ARM ETH Vault yields will increase substantially.
