What is OMG Network (OMG)?

OMG network, formerly OmiseGo, is a decentralized payment and exchange platform on the Ethereum blockchain. The network was created by Omise, a popular payment processor in South-East Asia. It aims to solve the long-standing scalability trilemma, allowing users to process transactions way faster and cheaper. 

Due to Ethereum’s slow processing time and ridiculously high gas fees, OMG devised a novel solution that uses Plasma, a side chain network, to move transactions off-chain to group them in a batch, which can be removed back to be verified as a single transaction. While the solution itself poses some issues, the developers say it could scale Ethereum transaction speed significantly, potentially processing more than 1000 transactions per second. 

OMG network uses a proof-of-stake consensus model to validate transactions. Users acquire OMG and stake them on the validity of blocks to be added. As a reward for validating blocks, they earn a percentage of transaction fees on the network.
