Omni Foundation Repurchases 33.7% of Tokens Sold to Investors

In a strategic move toward community-centric tokenomics, the Omni Foundation has repurchased a portion of its token supply from early backers at a discount.

The Omni Foundation today announced that it has purchased back 6.77% of the total $OMNI token supply that was previously allocated to early investors. This strategic buyback reduces the share of tokens held by private investors from 20.06% of the supply to approximately 13.29%. These tokens will be reallocated to the Omni Foundation’s Community Growth category. This repurchase reduces the combined token allocation for Investors, Advisors, and Core Contributors from 48.56% to 41.79% of the overall $OMNI supply.

The Foundation’s repurchase of 33.7% of tokens originally sold to investors was executed at a discounted rate relative to current market prices and in full compliance with existing lock-up agreements, underscoring the Foundation’s commitment to honoring prior terms while proactively shaping a more community-owned token distribution model. This repurchase was financed using a portion of the $18.1 million worth of capital raised by the Foundation from its Seed and Series A fundraising events.

By reclaiming tokens from early stakeholders, the Foundation is actively aligning the network’s ownership structure with its user community and long-term supporters. The approach is inspired in part by other sector leaders like Hyperliquid, which have championed community-first token distribution models, to strengthen network decentralization, governance, and resilience over time.
