As we navigate the "Crypto Winter," the OORT Foundation remains steadfast in its commitment to long-term resilience over short-term speculation. By focusing on real-world utility through DataHub and maintaining a disciplined fiscal policy, we are ensuring that $OORT emerges from this cycle leaner and more impactful.

To reinforce this stability, we are pleased to announce the completion of our Q4 2025 buyback and burn, utilizing up to 30% of quarterly revenue to further reduce the $OORT supply.

We will purchase $OORT from the open market and send it to a blackhole address, permanently reducing the total supply.

Why it matters

In a contractionary market, "value capture" is the ultimate validator. While many projects scale back during a downturn, OORT is doubling down on its deflationary ecosystem. By allocating up to 30% of Q4 revenue to buybacks, we are:

• Recycling Growth: Converting DataHub’s commercial success into token scarcity. Every enterprise win now directly fuels the $OORT ecosystem.

• Organic Sustainability: Powering burns with real revenue, not treasury reserves. This builds a self-sustaining loop where platform utility drives the token economy.

• Winter Resilience: Aggressively thinning the supply during the downturn to build a high-leverage springboard for the next market expansion.

Q4 2025 Token Buyback and Burn

The OORT Foundation has completed the Q4 2025 token burn, removing 2.0 million $OORT from circulation. This represents 0.1% of the total 2B supply and approximately 0.31% of the current circulating supply.

Total Tokens Burned: 2.0M $OORT

$OORT Buyback Recap

Throughout 2025, the OORT Foundation completed four quarterly burns, removing a total of 8.8 million $OORT from circulation.

Additionally, 1,471,606.0564 $OORT was permanently burned through separate mechanisms, further reinforcing a sustainable and resilient token economy.

This brings the total $OORT burned in 2025 until today to 10.271 million. 

When combined with the 9.076 million $OORT burned in 2024, the cumulative burn has now reached 19.35 million $OORT burned to date, representing approximately 0.97% of the total 2 billion supply and 3% of the current circulating supply.

Looking Ahead to 2026

The "winter" is for building, and the numbers show that OORT is building on solid ground. As we enter 2026, we will continue to balance aggressive user acquisition for DataHub with our systematic burn auctions. Our goal remains clear: to ensure $OORT is the premier asset for the decentralized AI economy.

Stay resilient. Stay focused.
