1. Market Trends 2010 10% 2016 36% 2022 78% Percentage of open source software in all codebases In 12 years +680% The percentage of open source software development is skyrocketing. ※Reference data excerpts from the Open Source Security and Risk Analysis (OSSRA) report (Synopsys, Inc., Nasdaq listing code: SNPS) and Black Duck Software Composition Analysis.
2. Problem ・Deteriorating working environment for IT engineers ※2022 OPEN SOURCE SECURITY AND RISK ANALYSIS REPORT - https://www.synopsys.com/software-integrity/resources/analyst-reports /open-source-security-risk-analysis.html ・More defects, more vulnerabilities exposed Low wages x Long working As a result Huge lack of resources 88% of code bases contained components that had no new development in the past two years and were behind on user updates “When no feature upgrades, code improvements, or security remediation activity occurs for 24 months, it’s likely that a project is no longer being maintained at all.”
3. Solution Build a developer-friendly and more sustainable open source software development system ①Establishing a flexible work style by dividing work into issues ②Prioritize resolution of urgent issues through the principle of the issue market ③Realizing trustless direct transactions using blockchain Developers can spend their favorite time solving problems in their favorite fields It is possible to get the right evaluation by improving the software towards a clear goal It is possible to contribute to solving problems in various organizations by making extensive use of individual areas of expertise. High-urgency issues attract more bounties, allowing developers to get the right attention Developers can focus on specific issues, resulting in more efficient and high-quality output generation Get expert help on issues you want to resolve with certainty Maintaining low fees and giving back to the community by using blockchain to eliminate intermediaries The smart contract fairly judges who solved the issue and creates a transaction Utility tokens are also valid as voting participation rights for Epics DAO and can participate in management
4. Product Decentralized Crowdsourcing Platform ”Epics” * Decentralized platform? : It is a platform that replaces the intermediary (for example it's a bank for money transaction) that has been necessary for safe transactions with a program called smart contract, enabling direct transactions between individuals without fraud.

6. Traction * at 2023/1/13 The transaction volume is gradually increasing. Plan to distribute $EPCT for open source projects in January 2023. This is expected to increase quests and projects. The IDO, which is also scheduled to be held on January 31st, will add a price to $EPCT, so more developers can be expected to participate.
