What is Osmosis?
Exchange network
Osmosis runs its exchange functions on a dedicated blockchain. The platform supports liquidity pools and concentrated liquidity. IBC connects it with compatible blockchain networks. Smart contract applications can extend the exchange infrastructure. OSMO secures the chain through delegated proof of stake. Delegating tokens gives a validator economic backing and gives the holder a share of applicable rewards. Staked OSMO also determines governance voting power.
Monetary rules
The documented maximum allocation is one billion OSMO. New tokens are issued for staking and ecosystem rewards on a declining schedule. Each reduction multiplies the daily emission by two-thirds, a process known as thirdening. The current documented reduction period is roughly two years. Governance controls the allocation of emissions and can change relevant parameters. OSMO pays network fees, while approved alternative fee tokens are converted to OSMO before distribution. An EIP-1559-style fee market adjusts the minimum gas price to network conditions. Trading fees have a separate allocation mechanism that includes token purchases and burns. Those burns reduce the amount remaining in circulation.
