INTRODUCTION

The coming of cryptocurrency was heralded as a new world market economy for all potential investors in the digital currency marketplace. This was made even more evident by the influx of revenue into the blockchain economy which tallied from billions of dollars in late 2017 to reach the one trillion dollars mark by 2018.
Unfortunately even the emerging growth of the decentralized network came as a growth to the word's economies. Long gone were the skepticisms which were replaced by a new form of enthusiasm about the future of a completely digital economy.

Cryptocurrency Usability Challenges

It is therefore appalling to think that even with all the huge statistics in terms of revenues generated from the blockchain network, it is yet to reach the heights it's supposed to reach in terms to global recognition even in local regions. For instance, majority of the individuals that utilizes cryptocurrency in my country Nigeria are mostly youths between the ages of 40 years and below. The older generation find it too hard and archaic to understand the working principles of a decentralized network economy, despite the fact that some of them are seasoned successful entrepreneurs.
This can all be termed down to the actions of distributed trading services from the Decentralized Exchanges (DEX) whose many but unorganized services have left a bad taste in the mouth of willing investors in the DEX trading ecosystem. Some of their challenges are includes but are not limited to :

Inefficient Security

The downside of DEX's error on security have seen investors lose millions in digital assets to fraudsters and hackers in a trend that has crippled exchange operations down the years. A survey statistics conducted lately has shown that several crypto users employs the use of more than one DEX in the search for the ultimate one that will give them the security that they crave.

Lack of Real Time Transactions

Scalability has always been an issue for modern day blockchain users in a way that the majority of the DEX have reached a capacity where they cannot entertain more users of cryptocurrency on their platforms. The numbers are about to get worst as more users are willing to invest more as 2018 draws to an end. The implication of this unbalanced package is that DEX investors will continue to experience slow down trading process in an already overcrowded ecosystem leading to an ineffective trading experience.

Lack of the Human Touch Factor

Most DEX have been found guilty of not reaching out to their users as it should be when undergoing trading operations. Most of these users find to their dismay that it takes some exchanges days or even weeks to respond to their complaints in a trading economy that requires instant action. This is not a characteristic of a good and thorough trading platform.

Manipulation Caused by Lack of Regulatory Compliance

The wide aggregation of cryptocurrency have made it quite impossible for most DEXs to comply with trading regulations. Most of them felt like that due to the fact that their different networks solves varying issues, that they do not owe it to anyone to comply with the rules and regulations of trading as listed out by the Sec and other compliance agencies. This apparent lack of compliance have led to cases of unhealthy manipulation by some of the exchanges in such a way that it's hard to get correct trading figures that have not been cooked to deceive investors. This dishonest attempt by some DEX to beat the system through illegal means will eventually lead to distrust from investors.

The issues above are part of the problem that cryptocurrency is experiencing in terms of wider usability on a global scale and it's evident that a much better secure and efficient exchange network that is user interest oriented is needed to bring a better trading ecosystem to an already volatile crypto economy.

The ONAM platform is a new innovative platform that will alleviate the trading limitations experienced by crypto investors. Let's take a look at what ONAM has to offer.

THE ONAM EXCHANGE SOLUTION

The ONAM platform is a new platform that is henaralky compliant with trading operations of the SEC and other regulatory bodies giving it a secure, trusted, scalable and efficient exchange platform but for crypto novice and experts alike. The vision of the ONAM project is to build a trading platform that is user oriented and widely trusted by doing things by the book.

An instance to this method is the trust placed by central banking system by individuals to safeguard their fiat currencies and also place full trust in them. This relationship was established because users bear in mind that banks all follow the rules and guidelines as stipulated by the Central Bank of their region as deviations from it will bear grave consequences for them. The ONAM operations will bear the same outlook but much better as it's a decentralized platform that promotes financial independence. They plan to introduce guidelines and instructional packages for traders on their platform to ensure that they get a fair and transparent trading experience that will maximize profit and litigate loss.

The option allows users to get more stakes on trading revenues by borrowing from an external body to increase their stakes. The ONAM platform offers the users the chance to get such funds at a lower percentage than is obtained on other networks. The process is a risky one and the guidance of the ONAM team will be an added advantage to investors.
The Margin lending option on the other hand wo allow the users to the ONAM platform to gain interests when offering margin trading operations to margin traders while in return making profit in interest from the proceeds of the transaction. The margin lending venture puts the borrower and the lender at a high loss risk but through the ONAM options, this can be litigated by the monitoring of the market flow.

Composite Index Fund

Aggregation has always been a big problem for DEX when it comes to crypto trading. The fact that so many coins are developed everyday that are rarely interoperable means that users have to undertake the heavy task of employing so many DEX to reach a required cryptocurrency that they desire.

This is what gives ONAM the human touch that other networks lacks.

What Makes ONAM Unique Among all other DEX

State of the Art Security

The security of any platform is a deciding feature on whether it will be sustainable or not. This security need is what has plagued most DEX from the time of its inception. The ONAM security setup is one that studies the threats that are usually experienced through exchange processes. With their Advanced threat prevention, Intrusion detection and Trade surveillance systems, the ONAM security identifies any irregularities in trading operations and flags them down as a possible threat. Just as the saying that goes "Better safe than sorry", their security encryption is suited like that with hope that security threats are detected ahead of time before they even try to occur. This gives their users confidence that their digital assets are secured all the time. Apart from the secure layer of 2FA security process that is characterized by most platforms, the ONAM platform also engages the services of KYC and AML services to get to know their users personally and ensure that they are also in synch with their compliance regulations.

High Frequency Scalability

In order to ensure that their trading operations are done in real time, the ONAM matching engine provides a high frequency scalability of 10 million transactions per second in a manner that has never been seen before in exchange operations. Their Goland technology mechanism powered by Google is at the head of this fluid process.

With Compliance Manipulation is Eliminated

The ONAM platform starts all its operations by complying with all SEC regulations for their trading tokens which will attract external and professional auditors to advice them on how best to issue their tokens the legal way.
This compliance process gives them a trusted reputation among the Decentralized exchange economy and thus, eliminates all forms of attempt by their investors to manipulate trading protocol. This is made possible through the Machine learning powered Real Time market Surveillance, Supervision and Compliance Systems which monitors every trade activity for unusual movements in trade activity. This will be in line with ensuring that ONAM becomes a network with good reputation for crypto investors.
