The coin the network runs on
OmniCoin pays the network's transaction fees, and the platform does not run without it. The chain launched before any fundraising, the fees are split by smart contractsA program on the blockchain that moves money by fixed rules everyone can read, with no manager’s discretion involved. whose rules anyone can read, and the founder's tokens are locked on-chain where you can check them. We don't talk about price here.
Anyone can earn OmniCoin by performing services in the marketplace, which helps people without capital or a bank account start buying and trading.

Only about 39.6M XOM, roughly 0.24% of the total, is actually in public hands and free to trade. Everything else is either locked in a contract, still sitting in a rewards pool waiting to be earned, or held by the team. That is the definition CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap use, and it is the number our public supply endpoint reports to them.
The founder holds 2,659,754,418 XOM in total, about 15.8% of all OmniCoin. None of it is part of that circulating figure. The large majority, 2,435,800,000 XOM or 95% of his original legacy claim, is locked in the vesting contract described below. The rest sits in his own wallets, which are excluded from the float on the same basis any project's team wallets are. If the founder's tokens ever start moving, they show up as an increase in circulating supply that anyone can see.
Check it yourself, no account needed: total supply · circulating supply.
Where your fee goes
When you pay a fee here, you can see exactly where it lands, and nobody can quietly change the split later without it showing. Every fee routes through the UnifiedFeeVault contract, which divides it by code between the development organization, stakers, treasury, liquidity and referrers. Validators are never direct fee recipients; they earn block rewards. Referral payouts (70/20/10, two levels) come out of fees actually collected, so they can never exceed what was earned.

The founder's coins are locked, and you can check
95% of the founder's legacy OmniCoin, 2,435,800,000 XOM, is locked in the OmniLegacyVest contract: nothing moves for two years, then the tokens release gradually over five more, with three narrowly defined early-release triggers. A second deployed contract caps the founder's voting power at 7% of supply per address.
The lock is on the public ledger: OmniLegacyVest holds the balance, and OmniVotingPowerCap enforces the voting cap. One caveat: the voting cap applies per address, so what it really gives you is visibility. Splitting tokens across new wallets to dodge it would be a public, traceable break of trust.
