What Makes Oddz Unique?

Oddz aims to simplify derivatives trading and enhance the user experience by becoming a player in the DeFi ecosystem. It plans to achieve this through features such as blockchain-agnostic seamless integrations with DeFi platforms, multi-chain trading, customizable automated options, zero gas fees, and an inbuilt oracle for real-time market data.

The ODDZ token serves as the native utility token for the Oddz Protocol and its ecosystem. It plays a central role in the incentivization structure and governance models of the protocol. The token will be used for protocol transaction fees, staking and yield farming, decentralized governance, referral bonuses, and as a reward mechanism for providing and validating accurate data. Staking in Oddz involves locking tokens to facilitate transactions and earning a share in settlement fees. The mechanism for decentralized governance is yet to be described, but it will allow users to actively participate in major protocol proposals and upgrades.

How Many Oddz (ODDZ ) Coins Are There in Circulation?

The maximum total supply of ODDZ coins is 100,000,000.

According to the plan, 8% of the tokens are allocated for the Seed Sale, 15.8% will be allocated to the private sale with tokens vested for 12 months and 15% released at the TGE, 0.5% of the tokens are allocated to early supporters, and 1.2% of the tokens will be allocated during the public sale.

Oddz Finance will allocate 42% of the tokens for its own operations, including 18% for platform and community development, 4% for the security and alignment fund, 10% for marketing, and 10% in a reserve fund.

Only 15% of the tokens will be distributed as staking rewards.

The Oddz founding team and advisory board will be allocated 16.5% of ODDZ tokens with a vesting schedule of 3 years, with 25% being unlocked every six months after a six-month cliff.

The initial circulating supply of $ODDZ token will be 9,220,000, which accounts for 9.22% of the total aggregate supply.

How Is the Oddz Network Secured?

Currently, ODDZ is an ERC-20 token, which means it runs on and is secured by the Ethereum blockchain. The security of Ethereum is ensured through its Ethash proof-of-work function.

ERC-20 defines a set of rules for tokens and includes security considerations related to the strength of the Ethereum network. For example, congestion on the network can increase the price of gas required for transactions, leading to delays and abnormally high transaction fees that affect all participants.

Additionally, smart contracts can pose security risks that may result in the loss of funds for DeFi traders. In fact, hackers have already successfully stolen millions of dollars in DeFi's relatively short existence as of March 2021.
