KnownOrigin.io

We would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who has been a part of the KnownOrigin community over the past 6 years and helped to create history together. Any future updates will only be posted via this x account.

All KnownOrigin community members are advised to access their profiles before the 9th of December to download their historic data and activity. If you have used our Creator Contracts previously, you can also collect and save the contract addresses for future safekeeping.

Following our previous wind-down announcement, we can confirm that the KnownOrigin marketplace will be replaced with a new standalone page. This page will contain all the information you need to access and preserve your assets, as well as covering general queries and our history.

🎉 We're excited to announce that NFTdotStorage, in partnership with @prrfbeauty's #PreserveInitiative, is working to secure the long-term preservation of KnownOrigin's NFTs using @IPFS & @Filecoin! 🧵 Read on for how we’re protecting these cultural assets. 👇

Further updates will only be through our X profile or via the KnownOrigin platform. If you have any questions or need support please contact us through hitting the ‘Help’ button on our website.

Regarding IPFS we will continue to cover pinning costs for the next 2 years. Again, any extension or change to this will be communicated. We have seen lots of conversations around the permanence of NFTS and we advise creators & collectors to research and understand what this means for their collections.

Firstly, thanks for all the kind words over the last week about KnownOrigin after our announcement to wind down on-chain activity. We appreciate there is some uncertainty around the platform and wish to clarify our position.

We have always been in awe of the creativity of the CryptoArt community and we know the space will continue to innovate and go from strength to strength.

KnownOrigin are contactable for support and further documentation via the ‘help’ button on the site. Note: Further updates regarding the platform will be made only through our X account.

After careful consideration and evaluation we can confirm KnownOrigin will continue to wind down it’s on-chain marketplaces & minter (and signpost to secondary marketplaces) over the upcoming weeks.

3. As always, the team at KnownOrigin want to say a massive thank you to all of you who have and continue to be a part of the KnownOrigin journey. Any further updates will be communicated on our site and social media. 🙏

2. Whilst some features are changing, KnownOrigin is a proud pioneer in the digital art space and we have always been committed to open source contracts and distributed data storage. If you have a KnownOrigin profile, either Collector and Creator, we encourage you to periodically log in and check in on your account activity and updates.

🚨Important Announcement 🚨 In the coming weeks, KnownOrigin will be changing some of our processes and we’re keen to keep our community informed about these. Please make sure to read the thread below for all updates! 🧵
