Onomy Protocol to Spearhead Institutional Adoption of DeFi

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Casper, Wyoming–(Newsfile Corp. – December 2, 2021) – Onomy Protocol has announced the creation of a financial infrastructure designed to further connect and advance the decentralized finance (DeFi) space after recent months have unveiled how decentralization is improving the world’s financial system by enacting code-governed protocols that empower communities worldwide. Building on the trustless nature of blockchain to increase yield opportunities, while reducing counterparty risk and operational inefficiencies, DeFi is rapidly onboarding institutional and retail users. Adoption is now expanding beyond the crypto-natives and entering mainstream audiences, with hedge funds, banks, VCs, and retail customers deploying their assets on-chain.

In light of this ‘great financial migration’ – a term used to define the crystallisation of assets in the on-chain environment, Onomy Protocol is mending the current pain points and building a financial ecosystem to spearhead DeFi’s journey. As a layer-1 blockchain network powering a hybrid decentralized exchange, a stablecoin minting system, and a DeFi access wallet, Onomy plans to become the de-facto gateway to intuitively enter and exit any asset ecosystem, while serving as the world’s decentralized reserve bank.

Onomy’s hybrid DEX employs an Automated Market Maker (AMM) and decentralized order book system to facilitate simple cross-chain trading between the crypto assets and Forex pairs. This creates significant opportunity for institutions to exchange currency within a secure environment that does entail surrendering asset custody to a third party, while still retaining the advanced functionality once limited to centralized exchanges, like interoperability between blockchain economies, limit orders, stop loss orders, and advanced charting.

To meet the needs of the institutions trading at volume and pace internationally, blockchains need to have the fast throughput and settlement finality to keep up. It’s well known that 1st generation blockchains like Ethereum, at least in their current guise, don’t have the operational capacity to handle international finance at a grand scale. Onomy Protocol’s Cosmos-based blockchain is built specifically for high throughput and efficiency. By plugging into the Inter-Blockchain Communication Protocol and building custom bridges to other chains including Ethereum, Near, Avalanche, Cardano, and others, cross-chain swaps become simple to everyone.

Onomy Protocol has announced plans to on-board the $6.6 trillion per day Forex market into DeFi, by enabling anyone to mint their own fiat representations on-chain. These decentralized stablecoins are minted into circulation by locking Onomy’s utility token NOM, as collateral, with rebalancing mechanisms enacted to maintain the peg. Financial institutions, enterprises, and individuals may therefore diversify their fiat portfolio, issue payments, settle international balances, and engage with DeFi yield opportunities without exposure to volatile assets.

Through Onomy’s DeFi access wallet, assets deployed on multiple chains may be managed via a single interface, simplifying ease of use and adoption whilst facilitating more complex operations like governance voting or staking.

Aiding institutional adoption of decentralized finance, Onomy’s products are compliant with regulatory frameworks and remain secure through multiple third-party audits and formal software certification conducted by Informal Systems and IBM’s RedHat.

TRAM VF Announces Flagship Investment in London Ride-Hailing Startup, OUNO

Published

on

LONDON, April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Tri Ri Asset Management (“TRAM”) is pleased to announce a strategic investment from its flagship venture capital fund, the TRAM Venture Fund (“TRAM VF”), in OUNO, a pioneering executive ride-hailing platform headquartered in London. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for both entities as they embark on a journey to transform the transportation industry.

Founded in 2023, OUNO rapidly gained traction in the market, attracting early investments from notable figures such as England & Manchester United’s Mason Mount, BAFTA-winning actor Michael Ward, and Grind Founder David Abramovitch, among others. In its inaugural year, OUNO demonstrated remarkable progress, earning the trust of numerous high-end brands including Prada, Hublot, and the Soho House Group. With thousands of daily B2C users in London alone, OUNO has established itself as a leader in the executive ride-hailing sector.

OUNO’s innovative feature of vehicle specificity distinguishes it in the executive ride-hailing space. Unlike other platforms that generalize vehicle options, OUNO enables users to request specific models such as Mercedes E-Class, S-Class, V-Class, or even a Tesla for those seeking a fully electric option. With over 2,500 chauffeurs already enlisted on the platform and an additional 1,500 awaiting onboarding, OUNO has become the preferred choice for drivers in London.

TRAM VF’s investment underscores its confidence in OUNO’s growth potential and commitment to innovation. With ambitious plans for expansion into the MENA region and the US, OUNO is positioned to redefine urban transportation globally. TRAM’s leadership is excited to support OUNO’s journey as it continues to lead the London market and extend its reach worldwide.

“We’re delighted to welcome TRAM to our business and successfully close our seed round,” said Bobby Drewett, Founder of OUNO. “Having TRAM as our first VC investor will strengthen our position for future funding rounds, benefiting from their wealth of knowledge and experience.”

“The strategic expansion into the Middle East is a top priority for both TRAM and OUNO,” remarked Asad Ali, Managing Partner of TRAM VF. “As I transition from public markets to private markets, I look forward to closely collaborating with Bobby and the OUNO team. As a value-add investor, I’ll utilize Tri Ri’s global network and resources to support OUNO’s growth, particularly in key markets, and help solidify its position as a market innovator in executive transportation.”

OUNO’s innovative transportation approach, coupled with TRAM VF’s strategic investment, lays the groundwork for a dynamic partnership poised to revolutionize the travel experience. Together, OUNO and TRAM VF are set to reshape urban mobility and make a lasting impact worldwide.

Largest digital assets exchange opens spot copy trading for lead trader registrations

DUBAI, UAE, April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Binance, the leading blockchain ecosystem behind the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume, today announced the launch of its highly-anticipated spot copy trading strategy tool. The feature is now available for experienced users who meet minimum portfolio asset size requirements to register as lead traders, and it will be rolled out fully for all users in May 2024.

The launch of spot copy trading further increases Binance’s diverse and popular offering of automated spot strategy trading tools, which includes Spot Grid Trading, Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) and Rebalancing Bot. Benefits of using automated trading tools such as spot copy trading include:

  • 24/7 coverage: Automated trading tools allow the user better control over how they choose to participate in the crypto market which trades 24 hours and seven days a week.
  • Speed and efficiency: Once a user has set their trading strategies and parameters, automated trading tools can process vast amounts of market data and execute orders within milliseconds, beyond what the individual user can otherwise do by themselves.
  • Removes emotions from decision-making: Automated trading tools help the user to avoid emotional or impulsive trading as it operates according to predetermined trading strategies and parameters.
  • Diversification and risk management: With a continuously growing range of automated trading tools, users have more diversification and risk management strategy tools at their disposal.

Copy trading allows users to follow and automatically execute the same trades as those of the lead traders, enabling copy traders to leverage other users’ experiences, trading techniques and risk management strategies. Lead traders can monetize their expertise when they make their portfolio available for copy trading.

Rohit Wad, Chief Technology Officer at Binance, shared: “At Binance, we’re always listening to our users and incorporating their feedback into our products. Our users give us great ideas because, very often, they know what works best for them. Spot copy trading is one such idea that came from community feedback. This is a great tool that automates trading for our users, and gives them the ability to try new trading strategies.

Binance first launched copy trading for its highly liquid futures products in selected regions in October 2023. In markets where both spot and futures copy trading are available, users will have even greater flexibility in how they manage their trading strategies and overall portfolio.

Users on Binance can simultaneously become lead and copy traders. Each user can have one lead trader account and copy up to ten lead trader portfolios. Lead traders receive 10 percent profit share and 10 percent trading commission rebate from copy traders who replicate their trades. Copy traders can review the lead traders’ performance metrics such as profit & loss record, and choose the ones that they want to follow while setting their own risk controls.

Binance spot copy trading benefits for lead traders include:

  • Ease of Use: Simple to sign up with no lengthy registration required.
  • Revenue Sharing: 10% profit share and 10% commission rebate from followers.
  • Largest User Base: Millions of potential copy traders to engage with.
  • Regular Payouts: Payouts are sent weekly.

Binance spot copy trading benefits for copy traders include:

  • Ease of Use: User-friendly interface makes copy trading easy.
  • Learning: Leverage experience of lead traders to learn about trading strategies.
  • Transparent: Lead trader performance metrics are readily available.
  • Highly accessible: Market-competitive fee structure makes trading accessible.

Spot copy trading is available on the Binance website now for lead traders, and will be introduced on the Binance app gradually. Binance invites lead traders to start building up their portfolios and participate in a Lead Trading Tournament that will run from April 24 to May 8, 2024.

Leveraging insights from the latest industry research conducted by Agiloft, ThoughtRiver highlights its leadership in transforming legal professionals’ approach to contract analysis and review with its Generative AI platform.

Agiloft Research Highlights Urgent Need for AI in Legal Sector

Recent Agiloft research illuminates the current state of AI adoption in the legal and procurement sectors, revealing that only about 20% of professionals are utilising AI technologies. The study also indicates a significant shift on the horizon, with over 50% of non-users planning to adopt AI solutions within the next 6 to 12 months. Despite this growing interest, the research uncovered scepticism among legal professionals regarding AI’s reliability, with the majority rating its dependability at a middling 4 or 5 out of 7.

ThoughtRiver Responds with Precision and Transparency

ThoughtRiver tackles the industry’s scepticism by not just meeting but exceeding expectations. The platform’s success is underscored by ThoughtRiver’s Lexible Fusion AI. Demonstrating an impressive 97% accuracy in identifying contractual risks, significantly outperforming other vendors.

“Accuracy is a north star for us and a commitment to our clients,” says Pascal D’Souza, Client Director at ThoughtRiver. “Understanding the critical nature of contracts in business operations, we ensure our AI delivers precision that legal teams can depend on time & time again, reducing risks and empowering strategic decision-making.”

Overcoming Industry Scepticism with Hard Facts

In a bold move to build confidence among legal professionals, ThoughtRiver has taken the unprecedented step of publishing its accuracy metrics, providing tangible proof of its effectiveness and reliability. This transparency places ThoughtRiver at the forefront of the legal tech industry’s push towards wider AI adoption.

The Future of AI in Legal Contract Review

ThoughtRiver is not stopping at current achievements. The company is dedicated to advancing its AI technology to not only allow lawyers to get to signature faster, but also offer deep analytics across entire contract portfolios as well as already being able to integrate directly into popular tools for lawyers such as Microsoft Word, Teams, and email inboxes. This forward-thinking approach is a testament to ThoughtRiver’s commitment to driving innovation in legal tech.
