The crypto ecosystem is giving its first baby steps towards mass adoption, Blockchain Technology has changed the paradigms of value transfer, value storage, and value creation on the Internet. A new world where the value will be created and transferred with immediacy is upon us. We need a smooth transition that can welcome the new age without anarchically disturbing the already established system. Therefore, we need a platform that can handle all the needs of this new world while at the same time guaranteeing the complainant with well-proven security procedures.

Finally, such a platform is starting its operations, a talented team led by Alex Jumanev and Otto Inagamov have created ONAM! The platform that will create a new era of standardization in digital assets trading.

To better understand the audacious solution that ONAM will provide, let's describe the current challenges that current exchanges have.

Current Challenges on Digital Assets Trading & ONAM Proposed Solutions

Security breaches

Security breach is a ubiquitous concern on the crypto ecosystem. Major exchanges have been the target for hacks and fund theft since 2011, on 2017 crypto exchanges lost over $266 million and in the first half of 2018 major exchanges have suffered losses over $731 million due to security breaches. This trend is expected to increase as crypto gain mass adoption. But for big investors, this security lacking scenario is a no go.

ONAM's proposed security mechanism

It's well known that Security is key to determine market sentiment, ONAM's platform was built wit the a security first attitude. Besides implementation of DDoS mitigation, anti-phishing and 2FA solutions, a Advanced Treat Prevention, Intrusion Detection, and Trade Survilliance systems powered by AI and encrypted databases will be implemented. Also, mandatory quartely 3rd party security audits will be held.

Limited scalability on major exchanges

On late 2017 and early 2018, major exchanges were not able to handle the sudden increase of traders that wished to invest in the crypto ecosystem. Current platforms were found too rigid, and their matching engines weren't able to provide a good service during peak trading times. This situation led major exchanges to halt new users registration for several weeks. This added more uncertainty to a market that is yet to cement his foundations and which already has high volatility.

ONAM's platform scale-centered design

ONAM engineer team philosophy is that "if scaling is not fast, then it is too slow", they also pride themselves to provide a most needed solution that can withstand the heaviest trading peaks. They have created a matching engine that can handle 10 million transactions per second with latencies of just 40 nanoseconds. This was accomplished by utilizing GoLang , a programming language designed for Google to handle computationally intensive server applications.

Market manipulation

Large-scale manipulations are occurring within the cryptocurrency trading industry on a daily basis, regretfully major exchanges are plagued with several market manipulation techniques such as spoofing, wash-trading, and momentum ignition to pump and dump. People realises that as long as crypto market's behavior resembles to that we had on the far west, the risk will be too high for them to jump in this promissing new ecosystem.

Market manipulation prevention

The Real-Time Market Surveillance, Supervision and Compliance System analyzes pre-trade and post-trade data to identify suspicious activity such as unusually large trades, pass-through trades, wash trades, spoofing, layering, stuffing, hammering, front-running, and momentum ignition. These systems will guarantee fairer market conditions and will lower the risk for new investors to enter the crypto trading ecosystem.

Poorly managed customer support

ONAM's surveys show that customer support is continually addressed as one of the main pain spots for users on the main exchanges. Some have reported that their support tickets response had weeks of delay even when the user has a pressing issue such as 2FA reset, fund loss, and account lockouts.

24/7/365 Customer support

ONAM has made a commitment to offer a ever-available live chat support to address all user possible requirements, they said that submitted support tickets for common issues will be addressed within 15 minutes. Also, ONAM's customer support will offer a phone support the first 6 month after full launch.

Insufficient market liquidity

The foundation on which a successful exchange is built is market liquidity. One of the reasons that crypto has huge price changes in a time range of a few seconds are poorly filled order books. The huge bid/ask gaps drive illicit tactics by front-running, wash-trading or spoofing to simulate well-populated order books and profit from honest traders.

ONAM market makers

ONAM team has comminted to provide proper incentives to attract large market-makers, volume traders, and miners. Also, by utilizing other exchanges orders book, the slippage and market manipulation issues that arouse due to low liquidity markets will be halted. ONAM's orders books will be truly rich and fully transparent.

Lack of regulatory compliance

The US SEC has been scrutinizing most cryptocurrency exchanges, ICOs, and similar ventures while cautioning retailers and institutional investors from participating in cryptocurrency markets. An ecosystem where investors are protected is of paramount importance if crypto will be adopted on every aspect of our society. Lack of such protection mechanism left investors on an uncertain ground, the promise for high and rapid returns on some ICOs drive their investment to some project that in due time fail to provide the expected results, thus giving a bad image of the whole industry and preventing new investors to come.

ONAM compliance boost its reliability

The US SEC has stated that almost all token assets are securities, therefore all ICOs should comply with securities sale regulations. This changes the whole horizon for the token market, therefore businesses have to adapt to the new situation. ONAM believe that in order to attrack new retail and institutional investors, a fully compliant and transparent platform is required. ONAM have the advice of one of the top legal firms in the US to handle all legal affairs that the exchange has to take on. Therefore, the ONAM guarantee that the company is fully protected against the thread of being shot down by regulatory institutions.

ONAM use cases

In some Latin American countries, major retailers firms are eager to accept cryptocurrencies on their stores in order to seize the opportunity to provide services for a new niche of customers that is traveling the continent expending some the profit they have made due to trading activities. But, the legislation on the region still holds cryptocurrency in a gray area. They have no means to properly register they sell and to calculate the taxes because the exchanges established on their country don't meet international digital asset standards.

One day, ONAM marketing team launch an internet campaign and the owner of one of the retailers firms get to know about ONAM Platform, he is delighted because he will be able to accept major cryptocurrencies in his business. Since he usually travels to the US negotiate the purchases for replenishing the stock for his business, he also is able to purchase some of his merchandize directly with cryptocurrency, thus enabling him to get better deals and to increase the profit for his business.

Other retailers starts to join ONAM platform and the adoption of cryptocurrencies in Latin America starts to increase exponentially due to retailers being able to comply with local and international regulations for their crypto investments.
