About Omni Network
Omni Network (OMNI) is an Ethereum-native interoperability protocol that enables fast, secure cross-rollup communication, consolidating the Ethereum ecosystem. Developed by Harvard alumni Austin King (CEO) and Tyler Tarsi (CTO), Omni utilises Ethereum’s security through restaked ETH and allows for unified gas payments and cross-rollup applications, advancing Ethereum’s rollup-centric roadmap.
Omni Network (OMNI) is an Ethereum-native interoperability protocol designed to enable efficient, low-latency cross-rollup communication. Omni addresses the fragmentation caused by Ethereum’s rollup-centric scaling strategy, which has led to isolated execution environments across various rollup solutions. By utilising Ethereum's Layer 1 (L1) cryptoeconomic security through restaked ETH and an externally verified consensus system, Omni achieves secure, sub-second finality for cross-rollup transactions.
Omni’s architecture combines the CometBFT consensus engine with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), allowing developers to build and operate decentralised applications (dApps) across multiple rollup environments. This framework, along with Omni’s universal gas marketplace, is intended to create a globally compatible, secure environment that simplifies cross-rollup interoperability and consolidates Ethereum’s capital and user base.
Omni Network (OMNI) facilitates Ethereum-native interoperability, allowing dApps and services to function seamlessly across different rollup environments. Through its sub-second finality, developers can create “Natively Global Applications” (NGAs) that operate across all Ethereum rollups, enabling a unified user experience without complex state management or multiple contract versions. The Omni EVM offers a programmable environment that supports any rollup architecture, while its universal gas marketplace allows OMNI tokens to be used for gas payments across networks, standardising transaction fees.
In addition, Omni enhances security for cross-rollup transactions by leveraging Ethereum’s L1 security, facilitated through EigenLayer’s restaking protocol. This design helps Ethereum rollups maintain composability and access to a larger liquidity pool, allowing for the development of complex, high-security, Turing-complete applications that integrate multiple rollups with reduced friction.
