OrangeCat 2025: The Complete Bitcoin-Native Platform - 10 Entity Types, AI Ownership, and Transparent Commerce
OrangeCat has evolved from a simple crowdfunding platform into a comprehensive Bitcoin-native ecosystem that enables the free flow of knowledge and value between people.
Since our original vision post in December 2025, OrangeCat has grown into a platform with 10 distinct entity types, revolutionary transparency features, AI ownership capabilities, and now operates under the BitBaum corporate umbrella. Let's explore what OrangeCat has become.
The 10 Entity Types: A Complete Commerce Ecosystem
OrangeCat now supports 10 different types of entities, each designed for specific economic and social interactions:
๐ฆ Gateway (Foundational)
- Wallets - Bitcoin wallet connections with automatic transaction autoposting to timelines
๐๏ธ Business (Value Creation)
- Projects - Crowdfunded initiatives with milestone tracking
- Products - Physical and digital goods with Bitcoin payments
- Services - Professional services with transparent pricing
- Causes - Charitable fundraising with public spending accountability
- AI Assistants - Autonomous AI services that creators build and monetize
๐ค Community (Network Building)
- Circles - Community groups with shared treasuries and governance
- Organizations - Full DAO-like companies with complex stakeholder relationships
๐ฐ Finance (Value Transfer)
- Assets - Valuable items listed as collateral for loans
- Loans - Peer-to-peer borrowing with asset-backed security
Transparency by Default: The Social Audit Trail
OrangeCat's most revolutionary feature is transparency by default. Every economic interaction creates a permanent, publicly auditable record.
Timeline Autoposts
When you connect a Bitcoin wallet to any OrangeCat entity, every transaction automatically posts to your timeline:
๐ Product Sale: +โฟ 0.015 (Digital Art Purchase)
๐ผ Service Payment: +โฟ 0.25 (Logo Design Completed)
๐ค Loan Repayment: +โฟ 0.1 (Monthly Installment)
๐ฐ Investment Return: +โฟ 2.5 (Project Milestone Bonus)
This creates a social audit trail where your economic activity becomes part of your social narrative.
Transparency Scores
Every profile, circle, and organization has a transparency score (0-100) based on:
- Public information completeness (profile details, links, history)
- Transaction visibility (public vs private transactions)
- Governance transparency (open decision-making processes)
Privacy Trade-offs: You can make anything private, but it lowers your transparency score, making it harder to attract high-value collaborators, investors, or customers who prioritize transparency.
AI Ownership: Software You Build and Monetize
OrangeCat enables true AI ownership - you create AI assistants as software that earns money 24/7.
How AI Ownership Works
1. Build Your AI Software
- Craft a system prompt (your AI's "code")
- Choose compute providers (API, self-hosted, community)
- Define pricing models (per conversation, subscription, etc.)
2. Monetize Autonomously
- Your AI handles customer interactions
- Bitcoin payments flow directly to you
- Scale across multiple compute providers
3. Own Your Creation
- Your system prompt is portable software
- Works with any AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
- You control the intellectual property
Real AI Business Examples
- Customer Service AI: Handles 1000+ support tickets daily for โฟ0.5/month per customer
- Content Creation AI: Generates blog posts and social media for โฟ0.1 per article
- Code Review AI: Automated code quality checks for โฟ0.05 per review
Economic Impact: Creators earn 99% of revenue (only 0.1% Bitcoin network fees) vs traditional platforms' 80-88%.
Organization DAOs: Companies as Code
OrangeCat's Organization entities are full-fledged DAO-like companies that demonstrate the platform's most advanced capabilities.
Organization Features
Multi-Stakeholder Governance
- Founders: Ultimate authority (3x voting weight)
- Employees: Operational roles (1x voting weight)
- Contractors: Specialized work (0.5x voting weight)
- Shareholders: Equity holders (1-2x voting weight)
- Lenders: Capital providers (monitoring access)
- Donors: Philanthropic supporters (impact reporting)
Treasury Management
- Multi-signature wallets (3-of-5 signatures required)
- Automated payroll and dividend distribution
- Transparent spending with full audit trails
- Asset collateral for borrowing
Proposal System
- Quadratic voting for fair representation
- Time-locked execution (24-hour delay for security)
- Emergency procedures for urgent decisions
BitBaum: The Platform's Own Organization
OrangeCat itself is owned and operated by BitBaum AG, a Switzerland-based organization entity on the platform. BitBaum demonstrates:
- Complex stakeholder management (founders, employees, contractors)
