View company profile

We are Osmosis, the premier cross-chain DeFi hub and the liquidity center and primary trading venue of Cosmos. We serve as the access point for the world of appchains, acting as the gateway to the interchain. As the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol (IBC) continues its explosive growth, connecting over 50 blockchains with many more in development (including dYdX chain, and with efforts to enable IBC on Avalanche, Polkadot, NEAR, and potentially Ethereum), we are here to welcome new users, developers, and protocols to the Internet of Blockchains. Our Osmosis Zone Apps Page features a suite of dApps tightly integrated into our AMMs and IBC routing capabilities, with numerous developer teams building index tokens, options, perpetuals, stop and limit orders, automated trading, yield vaults, NFTs, and more.

We're constantly innovating with new apps and features like stableswap, concentrated liquidity, rate-limiting, and in-protocol MEV capture going live regularly. This allows us to continuously expand our position as the only full-service, cross-chain exchange and DeFi hub. We pride ourselves on rivaling the smooth user experience of a centralized exchange (CEX) without compromising on the core benefits of decentralized finance – self-custody, trust-minimized transactions, direct on-chain access, and privacy. Osmosis launched in 2021 as a DeFi-focused appchain (application-specific blockchain) and decentralized exchange (DEX). As an appchain DEX, we have greater control over the full blockchain stack compared to DEXs built on parent chains. This fine-grained control has enabled the development of innovative features such as Smart Accounts, 1-Click Trading, and highly-performant on-chain orderbooks. We aim to build a cross-chain native DEX and trading suite that connects all chains over IBC, including Ethereum and Bitcoin. We are focused on being the hub of an increasingly multichain economy.

Our platform enables users to swap digital assets, participate in liquidity pools to earn rewards, and develop interchain-native applications and smart contracts. We cater to a diverse user base within the blockchain and cryptocurrency sectors. One of our key differentiators is the customizability of liquidity pools. Unlike platforms that limit pool parameters, we allow for the creation of pools with multiple tokens and unequal ratios, enabling participants to identify and capitalize on opportunities by adjusting parameters like slippage and transaction fees. We also introduced the concept of an 'AMM as a serviced infrastructure,' reducing the barrier for creating tailor-made and efficient automated market makers. Security and user experience are paramount to us. We've implemented features like Superfluid Staking, which enhances the security of our Proof-of-Stake system by allowing underlying OSMO tokens in liquidity provider positions to contribute to chain security and earn staking rewards. Furthermore, we allow transaction fees to be paid in over 160 different assets, abstracting away the complexities of gas fees for a seamless trading experience.
