Institutional Acceleration in 2025 The financial industry is rapidly transforming as major institutions like BlackRock, JP Morgan, Mastercard and others embrace cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. Once considered niche, digital assets are now integral to modern finance, offering faster transactions, enhanced security, and greater transparency. Innovations such as tokenized assets, real-time

Moving Traditional Finance Onchain In today's rapidly evolving financial landscape, traditional systems are becoming increasingly outdated. Many financial institutions still depend on legacy infrastructure, with some systems dating back to the 1960s. These outdated technologies hinder innovation, create inefficiencies, and limit the ability to integrate with modern digital

The Omni Foundation is offering a $500,000 bug bounty to incentivize developers and ethical hackers to uncover protocol vulnerabilities. To support this initiative, Omni is collaborating with Immunefi, crypto’s leading bug bounty platform. Omni’s project page on the Immunefi platform can be found here. What is Immunefi?

The following is an excerpt from Omni Labs CTO Tyler Tarsi's personal blog on building a culture of engineering excellence. Over the past 3 years, I've journeyed from being an individual contributor to leading an engineering team as CTO of Omni Labs. Back when we were

A Compliant Distribution Engine, Purpose-Built for Institutions Institutional Adoption in 2025 The financial world is witnessing a revolution as traditional institutions embrace the once-controversial realm of cryptocurrency. No longer content to watch from the sidelines, banks and investment giants are integrating blockchain technology and digital assets into their core strategies.

Ethereum’s rollup-centric roadmap delivered the scalability the ecosystem needed, but not without a cost: fragmented liquidity, isolated users, and fractured developer experience. Omni exists to solve this. We’re unifying Ethereum by enabling seamless interoperability across rollups, giving developers access to all users and liquidity — without smart contract upgrades.

Omni Core mainnet is live! This launch isn't just about Omni – it’s about delivering on Ethereum’s original promise: a unified, composable and accessible financial network for the world. We invite you to mark your participation in history by signing Omni’s Declaration of Unity – a pledge

Today marks a new chapter for Ethereum. After years of relentless building, we are thrilled to announce the launch of Omni Core mainnet. This moment isn’t just about Omni — it’s about delivering on Ethereum’s original promise: a unified, composable, and accessible network for developers and users alike.

Introduction: The Growing Complexity of Web3 The Internet of blockchains can hardly be called a "Web" if users must constantly manage direct interactions with countless distinct chains. Thousands of chains create a maze of wallets, balances, and identities, making the experience for both users and developers increasingly overwhelming.

Omni is almost live on mainnet and is positioned to UNF*CK ETHEREUM. With this launch, we’re taking our first steps towards our mission: to make the Ethereum ecosystem feel like a single chain again. Ethereum will feel like one chain for users and developers, such that: * Developers can

Two years ago, we set out to solve one of Ethereum’s most pressing challenges: rollup fragmentation. While rollups have unlocked unprecedented scalability for Ethereum, they’ve also introduced a complex web of barriers for both developers and users. Apps are isolated by rollup boundaries and liquidity is fragmented. Developers

In October 2024, our team identified and reported a critical vulnerability in CometBFT, specifically within the implementation of ABCI 2.0's Vote Extensions. This flaw has since been patched and publicly disclosed in GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-p7mv-53f2-4cwj. Our team member, Corver, was credited with discovering and reporting this

At Omni, we’re committed to fixing fragmentation in the Ethereum ecosystem by making Ethereum feel like a single chain for users — no more bridging, RPC switching, or managing gas. We’re thrilled to announce a key milestone that underscores our commitment to this vision: the completion of a comprehensive

Last week, Omni revealed that Symbiotic would be the first protocol to leverage Omni for cross-rollup deposits into its protocol on Ethereum L1. To dive deeper into this exciting development, we sat down with Tyler Tarsi, CTO of Omni Labs. 1. What unique challenges around Ethereum's fragmentation does

Fragmentation across Ethereum's rollup ecosystem has made it challenging for protocols on Ethereum L1 to access all Ethereum users and liquidity. Omni is bridging this gap by empowering developers to access users and liquidity across all rollups—without requiring smart contract upgrades. Today, we’re thrilled to announce

Omni was created to address Ethereum’s existential fragmentation problem. As the number of rollups deployed has expanded dramatically, it has become proportionally more difficult for developers to access all of the users and liquidity in the Ethereum ecosystem. Solving this problem for developers has always been our north star.

We are thrilled to announce the public release of Omni Omega, the third and final testnet before the release of Omni’s mainnet. Omni’s first two testnets totaled over 7.5M transactions from 550,000 users. This demand pushed the network to its limits and ultimately prompted a complete

Omni is excited to announce the launch of our latest milestone: the Omega testnet for developers. This launch marks the initial phase of a comprehensive, multi-stage process that will include the public Omega testnet rollout and culminate in the release of Omni's mainnet. The Omega developer testnet offers

Omni is thrilled to announce the launch of a highly anticipated feature: Streams. This new capability addresses the pressing need for faster and more flexible message delivery options. With Streams, developers now have the choice to send their XMsgs in two distinct modes: fast and finalized. This flexibility allows for

At Omni, we frequently discuss the types of applications we’d like to see leverage our technology to achieve cross-rollup scale. We’ve consolidated our best ideas below. Please note that you don’t need to work on any of these in particular – we welcome ideas for all types of

The EVM and the CometBFT (formerly Tendermint) consensus engine are two of the most widely used components of blockchain infrastructure. The EVM offers a robust ecosystem characterized by its advanced developer tooling and strong network effects while CometBFT provides blockchains with fast finality and low latency. Despite these benefits, there

Two weeks ago, the $OMNI Genesis airdrop went live alongside the rollout of the Genesis staking program. The Genesis staking program was designed to allow users to help bootstrap the network’s security and qualify for future rewards. This was a crucial first step in bootstrapping Omni’s security for
