in #contest6 years ago (edited)

Introduction

After the collapse of the global economy in 2008, blockchain technology replaced traditional bank system as a better store-of-value system due to its high level of security and privacy. However, this potent tool is ridiculously poor at transfering value as its speed of transaction is too low when compared with other value exchange platform such as paypal, visa e.t.c.

This is the primary reason why exchanges were initiated in the first place; that is, to drive an economy of value transfer easily. So far so good, through the activities of this exchanges, many interested party has gained entry into the cryptocurrency space without much fuss. However, the cryptocurrency space still has more room for growth since it has barely even hit the $1 trillion dollar mark and the reason for this is not a farcry from the distaste of many businesses and investors about the technology.

Some of their concern rest with the security risk associated with many centralised exchanges which has gave hackers a field day at gaining access to their wallet and stealing away customer's funds kept in their custody. But the landscape is about to change for all the bad actors within the system with the introduction of a compliant-friendly exchange platform ONAM

Use Case

  • A retail store

Hmo is s retail outlet which has many branches scattered around lagos metropolitan city. They noticed lately that most of their customers prefer to patronise a nearby outlet which has incorporated the bitcoin cryptocurrency as a means of payment. They are determined to win the market back and they decided to implement the same technology which the other outlet uses to accept cryptocurrency payment. However, their first foray into the cryptocurrency world wasnt succesful atall as the trader incharge of managing their asset complained of difficulty in reconciling the account balances due to price unpredicability caused by high volatility of the market.

They opt out but was still not contented watching their close neighbour make huge sales from accepting cryptocurrency along with other payment method. On making more research, they discovered their neighbour have being using an exchange where they can easily reconcile their asset with its market value easily and also get to store their asset on a secure vault while channelling all transactions in real-time!. That exchange is ONAM!, with its high liquidity coupled with rich order books, it is able to find market for assets listed within the platform.
