OmiseGO – An ‘OMG’ project in more ways than one!

• OmiseGO (OMG) is currently ranked 20^th on CMC with a Market Cap of $1.211bln.
  • OmiseGo is a subsidiary of Omise, a South East Asian payments facilitator. The OMG network is not owned by OmiseGO and is instead an open source project.
  • It aims to provide financial inclusion and interoperability through the public, decentralized OMG network
  • OMG Is made up of two primary elements;
    • The OMG Money Gateway as a scaling solution for Ethereum focused on enabling payments, trades, and other financial transactions in both crypto and at. OMG is a fully public, currency agnostic decentralized exchange (DEX) network which will be secured by Ethereum and built to scale infinitely using the Plasma architecture.
    • Secondly, to develop the OMG open-source, white label digital wallet Software Development Kit (SDK). The SDK will be free for anyone to use and will make it easy for those who need online asset exchange as part of their business to connect seamlessly to the OMG Network. The SDK allows wallet providers the flexibility to enhance, add, and customize payment solutions for many use cases.
• OMG is the answer to a fundamental coordination problem amongst payment processors, gateways and financial institutions. By enabling decentralized exchange at high volume and low cost, OMG provides a next-generation value transfer service operating across currencies and asset types, and across national borders and corporate ledgers.

Commentary and Thoughts;

OmiseGO are a key player in the Crypto space. They definitely belong in the top 20 based upon their existing business infrastructure, underlying tech and the problem that they are aiming to help solve/alleviate for them and many other DApps built upon the Ethereum Network.

They are competing in a very competitive space but appear to have an edge over existing competition simply by being further along their roadmap then most others.

OMG’s PoS is a very attractive feature for new and existing investors. PoS in this case mean that holders will get a cut of transaction fees.

OmiseGO’s decision to keep the network and software released as open source means that the technology has the ability to grow significantly faster.

A fantastic project with great tech and still bundles of potential when addition starts to kick in.
