Orochi’s New Model — Verifiable Data Economy

Most Data-to-Earn models fail due to a broken revenue loop. Orochi fixes this: users prove data with ONProver, zkDatabase structures it, and enterprises pay for trusted, verifiable data—turning it into a real, working economy.
Most Data-to-Earn models fail because the revenue loop is broken. Users generate data, but there’s no guarantee anyone will use or pay for it. Orochi fixes that with a new model: users prove data with ONProver, zkDatabase structures it, and enterprises pay for what they can trust. This is how verifiable data becomes a working economy.
The Broken Model: Why Data-to-Earn Hasn’t Worked
Many platforms have promised users the ability to earn from their data. In theory, users generate data, platforms monetize it, and everyone benefits. But in practice, most of this data is not used. It lacks structure, verification, and trust. As a result, enterprises do not adopt it. Users are left with minimal returns.
The core issue is verification. Most data pipelines today cannot prove the integrity of the data.
-
Data origin is unclear.
-
There is no cryptographic proof of correctness.
-
Privacy is often compromised.
Web3 aimed to improve on Web2, but many systems still rely on centralized oracles. This undermines trust. Without verification, enterprises hesitate to adopt the data. Platforms struggle to monetize it. The model breaks down.
Building the Verifiable Data Economy
Orochi introduces a new model where each data point is paired with a cryptographic proof.
This ensures:
-
The data is authentic.
-
Its origin is verifiable.
-
Privacy is preserved.
This foundation supports a more trustworthy and usable data economy.
ONProver plays a key role in this model. It is a client application that allows users to generate proofs from their own devices.
-
Users verify the data locally.
-
Each proof is checked with zero-knowledge techniques.
-
Verified data earns $ON tokens.
In the last four months:
-
Over** 470 million proofs have been generated.**
-
More than 290,000 users have participated.
ONProver is the engine behind zkDatabase. It provides the verified data that zkDatabase organizes and serves.
When users generate proofs with ONProver, those proofs feed directly into the zkDatabase. The result is a collection of data that is not just available, but also verified and structured.
Together, ONProver and zkDatabase solve two core problems:
-
**For users: ** They can now contribute and provide useful data, and earn from it.
-
**For enterprises: **They can access data that comes with built-in trust, without relying on intermediaries.
zkDatabase acts as the delivery layer, turning raw, proven data into a format ready for enterprise use—secure, efficient, and verifiable.
What This Means for the Future
This is how the system works:
-
Users prove data with ONProver.
-
zkDatabase stores and structures the data.
-
Enterprises access and pay for the data.
-
Revenue supports the $ON token and user incentives.
The process is efficient, repeatable, and designed to scale.
New technologies like AI, DeFi, and RWA need verified data. They require data that is accurate, private, and compliant.
Traditional models are not equipped for this. Orochi offers a new approach.
It replaces trust with proof. And builds a stronger foundation for data-driven systems.
Trust what can be verified.
That is the principle behind Orochi.
