Today we released the Open Cap Table Protocol (OCP) whitepaper: the onchain infrastructure making equity programmable 🔥 

Cap tables today are still stuck in PDFs, Excel files, SaaS private databases and legal workflows.

OCP replaces that with smart contracts, wallet-based ownership, and real-time compliance - already in production.

OCP is:
✅ Open source (MIT-licensed)
✅ Aligned with OCF from the Open Cap Table Coalition
✅ Compliant by design
✅ Supported by SEC-registered Transfer Agent

What it does:
✔︎ Turns equity into smart contracts
✔︎ Enforces transfer rules at the protocol level
✔︎ Keeps cap tables accurate in real time
✔︎ Gives investors self-custody, verifiable ownership

OCP is live and already powers thousands of stakeholders and sets the foundation for regulated DeFi in equity. It enables secondary markets, programmatic vesting, and automated compliance, all built in from day one.

Don't go public: Go onchain!
