OmniBazaar is live on mainnet

Thirteen years after this project started, there is no announcement trick left to perform: the chain is running, and you can check.

OmniCoin L1 (chain ID 88008, an Avalanche subnet with ~1–2 second finality) has been on mainnet since April 2026. On it: 100+ smart contracts in source with 149 deployed addresses, a DEX with its own order book, prediction-market aggregation across about 140,000 indexed markets, yield and RWA aggregation, a peer-to-peer marketplace with 2-of-3 escrow, and one-click privacy shielding to COTI. Three clients ship in lockstep: the web app, a browser-extension wallet supporting 80+ blockchains, and Android.

Two properties make it different from the apps it replaces, and both are architectural rather than promotional:

You never pay gas. Every transaction is an EIP-2771 meta-transaction: you sign locally, a validator relays and pays the gas. Protocol revenue comes from stated fees: 0.20% DEX taker, 1% marketplace, 0.25% interface fee.

We never hold your funds. Keys are generated in your browser and never leave it. Settlement is wallet-to-wallet by contract. There is no platform balance to freeze, no withdrawal switch to flip.

What is not live yet, so nobody has to discover it the hard way: reward emission for the early-LP program starts at hard launch, bonding opens at hard launch, fiat on-ramps are coming soon, and the third-party audit is budgeted and scheduled but not yet published. When those change, this blog will say so with the date attached.

Verify anything above: the contract table is on /technology, the live counters run from the same public API the app uses, and the explorer is public. Hold your own.
