It’s 2021, and Ethereum has found the market fit we’ve all been dreaming of. However, increased demand for DeFi products is causing major scaling pains, with high gas costs pricing out most of the user base. Sure, L2 solutions are coming, and DXdao is at the innovation forefront.

Fortunately, the future is now as Omen goes xDai native. What does this mean for you?

No More Custom RPC

Users are now magically zapped into the xDai network when accessing Omen’s main page through Metamask or Wallet Connect. No more multistep process just to set up xDai in order to use Omen.

If you’d rather keep using Omen on mainnet, you can still do so, by selecting “mainnet” in a dropdown tab at the top of the Omen page.

Simplified Funding

When landing on the Omen dApp for the first time, users can now participate in xDai native Omen markets with a few simple steps:

  1. Connect your wallet through Metamask or Wallet Connect.
  2. Enable DAI and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
  3. Deposit DAI and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
  4. Wait for your DAI deposit to confirm and start predicting!

No e-mail required, just bring your wallet.

We couldn’t be more excited to be making another step towards an inclusive multichain world with Omen on xDai, and DXdao is looking forward to hearing about your experiences on the world’s most decentralized prediction market platform.

About Omen: Omen is a fully decentralized prediction market platform built on the Gnosis conditional token framework. Users can create and/or participate in information markets on various topics (crypto, politics, sports, etc.) and stake their crypto on possible outcomes.
