Why OmiseGO (OMG) has much more potential for growth than you might think - Dividends will be higher than most realize

You may have caught wind of OmiseGO, but not many people realize why holding the OMG tokens is much more valuable than current prices.

As you probably know OMG token holders will receive a sort of dividend from staking their coins, which will be paid out of the transaction fees made on the platform. Whilst this may seem great and obvious at first, most people seem to have a very limited view on how many transactions there will be.

LET'S START WITH THE OBVIOUS
OmiseGO will have a Cryptocurreny exchange. Currently Bittrex does about $500 million transaction volume a day. A fresh and new exchange by comparison, Binance, does $100 million volume a day only a few weeks after it's inception. Assuming the OmiseGo Exchange will do the same transaction volume as Binance and (theoretically) charges a 0.1% fee, this means there is $100K in the pot for holders each day which amounts to $36500000 a year. Divide that by the amount of tokens (140 million) and the result is approximately $0.26 return per token, at today's prices and assuming the OMG exchange is 'only' as succesful as Binance. Should the OMG exchange volume be similar to, for example, Bittrex, you can multiply the dividends by 5. That would come at around $1.30 per token, or in percentages about 19% dividends a year.

Now, if you are betting on the market becoming bigger, and trade volumes increasing, the ROI would be even faster because trade volumes will likely be much higher than they are today. And then of course you have to factor in that the price of the OMG token will probably rise, so rewards will too.

BUT...

What most people don't take into consideration when doing their calculations on the profitability of OMG tokens is the fact you don't just get a fee for each trade made on their Decentralized Exchange but rather: You get a fee for every transaction on the blockchain network.

What this essentially means is that not only do you get the fees from the exchange, but also every time somebody purchases something online with OMG tokens (or with a TenX card), or transfers them to another wallet, or shapeshifts them. For every movement on the network, a small fee is paid that OMG holders collect.

AND

Omise already has a huge customer base in the millions (and I believe I read they recently acquired a payment processor that has 500 million customers). Whilst nothing is certain, it sure does seem like they are setting up to switch the backend of their systems to the new OMG ecosystem. If this is true, then all of existing Omise customers who make a purchase anywhere in any shop during their daily lives, will pay a small transaction fee too which OMG token holders collect. With the potential of seeing millions of daily spenders added to the already huge pool of transactions that will be made, this truly skyrockets the potential dividends of holding the OMG token.

To make a long story short: If you think OmiseGo has boomed and won't go any further, I believe you are sorely mistaken. While holding TenX is like getting dividends for every Visacard payment, and holding WCX or SAFEX might be getting dividends for every exchange-transaction, OmiseGo offers both of those benefits as well as a huge customer base ready for switching over to the network. It's a three-in-one. The OMG network is setting itself up to be one of the most heavily used blockchains which will transact huge daily transaction volumes, and this is why I believe the dividends from OMG tokens will far exceed those of other tokens.

Disclaimer: The 0.1% transaction fee is speculative and as far as I know no details regarding the specific dividends have been made known yet. Furthermore, there is a chance not 100% of the fees will be paid out in dividends. Some of it could go towards other things.
