Omni (built on @variational_io) is the most structurally sound trading venue onchain right now, and most still haven’t caught on. Let's dive a little bit deeper into their product and rewards👇 The product is leveling up fast: 1) Spreads have compressed across the board. You can now route multi-million dollar $BTC trades at 3–4 bps, without touching an order book. That’s tighter than most CEXs. 2) $HYPE markets are back, with spreads ~50% tighter than before. Retail flavor meets institutional-grade infra. 3) Their listing engine is live again, feeding a stream of new tokens. Users now get access to majors, memecoins, vol indices, anything that can be priced can be traded. Here’s the kicker: Omni charges no trading fees. Just a $0.10 flat fee on deposits/withdrawals. That alone breaks the mold of most onchain venues. And the architecture makes all of this sustainable: > Liquidity comes from an in-house OLP that routes and hedges across CEXs, DEXs, and OTC desks > Pricing is driven by internal quoting, no reliance on external market-makers > Settlement is instant, with users insulated from counterparty risk via isolated pools Variational isn't playing some mercenary points game. The reward structure is also native to the protocol. They have: > USDC refunds on losses > Spread discounts for high-volume traders > Referral rewards based on actual traded volume > Platform credit to activate new/referred users > A tiered system, so rewards scale with usage The OLP keeps the spread, not external firms. So rewards aren’t a cost center, but a redistribution of real value captured by the system. Overall, Variational has all three: Deep liquidity, aligned incentives, and no-fee execution. If you’re still farming points elsewhere, pay attention. Variational isn’t competing for attention, it’s competing for flow. 🔥
