Origin Ether

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

Origin Ether is published as a versioned release inside the Origin Protocol protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.

Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

Origin Ether is a Liquid Staking protocol that issues liquid receipt tokens against staked deposits, so users earn validator rewards without locking up the underlying asset. It is deployed across 3 chains, including Ethereum, Base, Plume Mainnet. No public audit reports are listed on DeFiLlama for this protocol.

Origin Ether operates on 3 networks (Ethereum, Base, Plume Mainnet), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Ethereum, Base, Plume Mainnet), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. No public audit reports are linked from DeFiLlama for this protocol despite a non-trivial TVL — treat any deposit as carrying material smart-contract risk.
