Inspiration

Recent years have brought a number of innovations in the Web3 and cryptocurrency sector. The number of new blockchains and protocols built on them is constantly and dynamically growing. While this is a positive phenomenon, it also presents a number of problems.

Ecosystems fragmentation As each new ecosystem builds up and grows along a given chain, so does the total value of assets, liquidity, and the user base which do not add value to other ecosystems. One of the main advantages of decentralized applications is their openness. This allows other protocols to use the achievements of other ecosystem participants, or to extend their properties. This makes it much easier to create a common, decentralized system that constantly offers new possibilities. Unfortunately, the above is most often true only in relation to protocols built inside a specific blockchain (ecosystem). For example, the total value locked on an Avalanche is an added value only for that network and cannot be used by protocols created on other chains. Likewise, an NFT representing a decentralized user profile or an in-game item is not reusable on multiple blockchains simultaneously. The above is an obvious disadvantage in terms of the aforementioned openness of the application as well as a huge squandered value that could be used by other users.

What it does

  • Creating Omnichain NFT collections and minting between chains to unify fragmented ecosystems.
  • Our Omnichain Router makes cross-chain protocols and applications development really easy. It connects multiple cross-chain messaging protocols like LayerZero and Axelar to aggregate all their supported blockchains into one solution (redirection logic).

How we built it

We've initially built the Omnichain Router out of our own need as the internal solution to make reusable and abstract the cross-chain layer from the application logic layer. Learn more from our Documentation at https://docs.omnisea.org.

Omnichain Router

Challenges we ran into

From the very beginning, the project was developed by only 1 core developer (founder) and funded from own resources.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • More than 30k transactions on the Testnet.
  • Unique value proposition regarding cross-chain aggregated solution.
  • Relationships with major projects and teams.
  • Current product development.

What we learned

We've learned that everything is possible, that team is hard to build but in the end, it's people who can build the project value, and that task delegation is crucial.

What's next for Omnisea

  • Mainnet launch in September.
  • Team expansion, looking for talents.
  • Seeking funding to move even faster.
  • Focus on ongoing developments and the roadmap.

Filecoin/IPFS sponsor tool

We believe every NFT's metadata and the related file should be always stored on IPFS for data resilience, immutability, and to avoid centralization. So-called optional metadata "freezing" is a bad practice as it should be obligatory procedure. Each NFT created on our Launchpad has metadata and file uploaded to IPFS.
