Maiden Voyage

Worqen leaves alpha and opens to everyone as it launches on Solana mainnet — real product, real funds, no waitlist and no invite. Sign up with an email and start hiring or working the same day. The public site has been rebuilt around the launch, and every payment is still secured by the same open, on-chain escrow.

Safe Harbor

The escrow that secures every payment has been rebuilt on a new, hardened Solana program. Milestone payments, direct payments, and disputes now run on a single contract, and the platform fee is always added on top — so freelancers receive the full amount they agreed to, and clients see the fee clearly before they pay.

First Light

The first public alpha of Worqen — a Solana-secured marketplace for digital and local work. Every payment runs through an on-chain escrow built for milestone-based hires. Self-custody and embedded wallets are both supported, so workers can be paid in SOL, USDC, USDT, or EURC without ever touching a seed phrase. This release covers the full hire lifecycle end-to-end and ships the Solana program with ten v2 security hardening items rooted in formal threat modeling.
