Introduction & Important Links

Offering the infrastructure necessary to converge traditional finance with decentralized finance.

Onomy Protocol represents an innovative Layer-1 ecosystem designed to harmonize the worlds of Forex and decentralized finance. At its core lies the Onomy Network, a proof-of-stake blockchain constructed using the highly versatile Cosmos SDK framework, and the Arc Bridge Hub affording interoperability with EVM, non-EVM, and IBC chains - all maintained by a distributed network of independent validators located around the globe.

A cornerstone of the Onomy Protocol is its Decentralized Autonomous Organization, or DAO, which empowers contributors to actively manage and shape the Onomy ecosystem's features, products, marketing initiatives, and more - referred to as Onomy Improvement Proposals (OIPs) in the community. Proposals that demonstrate the most promise are directly funded from the on-chain treasury, which is managed by all holders of Onomy's native NOM token.

Onomy Improvement Proposals (OIPs)

Current major OIPs in progress include the Onomy Exchange (a hybrid orderbook+AMM DEX) and the Onomy Reserve (decentralized stablecoin issuance).

You can join Onomy's community social channels to connect with 60,000+ fellow NOMads and view information about the Onomy Ecosystem.

The NOM Token

The native coin of Onomy Protocol is NOM. NOM is used to secure the network through staking, payment for transaction and bridge fees, and for governance in the Onomy DAO. When NOM holders delegate their NOM to a validator, they are staking. Staking provides rewards in return for supporting the security and operations of a blockchain network.

Onomy DAO (Governance)

DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) is an organization represented by rules encoded as a transparent computer program, controlled by the organization members, and not influenced by a central governing entity. As the rules are embedded into the code, no managers are needed, thus removing any bureaucracy or hierarchy hurdles.

Onomy is governed by the Onomy DAO, providing NOM holders with the opportunity to guide the decision-making process through NOM-weighed votes. Examples of items the Onomy DAO vote on include Chain Upgrades, Parameter Changes, Funding Proposals, and Resolutions for the direction of community efforts for Onomy ecosystem develop
