Chain Abstraction in 2024: A Year in Review - by Omni, Particle, and LiFi

Chain Abstraction in 2024: A Year in Review - by Omni, Particle, and LiFi

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.

Any Action, Any Chain, Less than 1 Second.

Any Action, Any Chain, Less than 1 Second.

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

Symbiotic Integrates Omni: Enabling Seamless Access to Ethereum Rollup Liquidity and Users

Symbiotic Integrates Omni: Enabling Seamless Access to Ethereum Rollup Liquidity and Users

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’s RoIe in a Chain Abstracted Future

Omni’s RoIe in a Chain Abstracted Future

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.
