Can you participate in the traditional market that used to be dominated by large investors with just $10? @OstiumLabs wants to cut off this "unattainable" entry threshold - whether you are a retail investor or a cryptocurrency player, you can trade traditional assets such as gold, copper, forex, and indices on the chain They recently took a big shot - they just received a new round of funding, raising a total of $27.8 million, led by General Catalyst and Jump Crypto. It means that this is not just a 'whiteboard drawing', someone is really putting money on their architecture and ambitions The technical design behind it is quite genuine: Ostium uses a dual oracle architecture - traditional assets use their own customized oracle system, while the crypto market uses Chainlink's Data Streams. Price information sources and on chain contracts cannot be separated The liquidity and funding structure are also quite innovative. They have established a liquidity pool called OLP Treasury: everyone deposits USDC to exchange for OLP tokens, which are used as market makers/liquidity providers, and the entire platform uses these pools to generate contract liquidity - not simply placing orders, but using stablecoins, pools, and smart contracts to create a structure After its launch, Ostium's cumulative trading volume has exceeded $25 B, with $5 B dedicated to metals alone. More importantly, it claims that over 95% of its open interest comes from traditional assets (RWA), which means it is not engaging in another wave of currency market gambling, but rather creating a real on chain entry point for traditional assets Ostium is not bragging about concepts, it is building an infrastructure that combines on chain, traditional assets, decentralization, and inclusiveness. If they run this line through, it may really be a "re creation of entry" for ordinary people who want to enter the traditional market but do not want to enter the securities/brokerage system @OstiumLabs @Bantr_fun @0xMantleCN Ostium Bantr
