Key Aspects and Considerations of the ONINO Mainnet Upgrade

The upgrade to the ONINO Mainnet will be a structured process, ensuring seamless adoption, full ecosystem integration, and long-term interoperability. The transition will happen across multiple phases, allowing users, developers, and institutional partners to onboard efficiently.

‍

Token Upgrade: A 2-Year Transition from Binance Smart Chain & Ethereum

To ensure a smooth transition for all existing holders, ONINO will implement a 2-year token upgrade period from Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and Ethereum to the ONINO Blockchain.

✅ Upgrade Start Date: April 1st, 2025

✅ Upgrade Duration: 2 Years (Until April 1st, 2027)

✅ How It Works:

• Users will be able to swap their BSC and Ethereum tokens 1:1 for ONINO Mainnet tokens via an official upgrade portal.
• The upgrade portal in the ONINO Wallet will include step-by-step guidance to make the process seamless.
• Smart contracts will securely burn tokens on BSC/Ethereum
• A dedicated support team will be available to assist with any upgrade-related questions.

By offering a long upgrade window, ONINO ensures that no user is left behind and that institutional partners have the necessary time to transition into the ONINO ecosystem. In the meantime you can either upgrade your tokens or keep holding on Binance Smart Chain / Ethereum.

‍

Validator Onboarding: A Phased Approach to Decentralization

To ensure network stability, ONINO will implement a phased validator onboarding strategy, gradually increasing decentralization and security.

✅ Phase 1 - Initial Stability: During the first few weeks of the Mainnet launch, ONINO and its partners will operate validator nodes to ensure the network runs smoothly and securely.

✅ Phase 2 - Public Validator Expansion: Once stability is confirmed, ONINO will open up validator slots to 32 public validators, increasing decentralization while maintaining network integrity.

✅ Phase 3 - Full Validator Decentralization: In the final stage, ONINO will fully open validation to the public, allowing anyone who meets the requirements to participate, maximizing network security and decentralization.

This structured approach ensures that the ONINO Blockchain remains resilient, scalable, and accessible to all, supporting a truly decentralized financial ecosystem.

Expanding the ONINO Ecosystem: Full-Scale Application Integration

The upgrade is not just about moving to a new blockchain - it is about unlocking the full power of the ONINO ecosystem. With the Mainnet live, ONINO will integrate its core applications and expand its capabilities.

🔹 ONINO Tokenization Platform - Enabling seamless asset tokenization for businesses, startups, and institutions.

🔹 ONINO Developer Platform - Providing developers with easy-to-use tools, AI-powered smart contract generation, and blockchain automation.

🔹 Supporting dApps & Use Cases - The ONINO Blockchain will power new decentralized applications, including real estate tokenization, equity crowdfunding, and financial instruments.

By integrating these applications, ONINO ensures that the Mainnet is not just a technical upgrade but a fully functional ecosystem from Day 1.

Exchange Integration: Connecting the ONINO Mainnet to Centralized Markets

ONINO’s vision extends beyond decentralization - it includes global accessibility. That’s why the upgrade plan includes infrastructure integration with other platforms to ensure availability of the native ONI but also possible integrations for all upcoming projects on ONINO.

✅ CEX Support: ONINO is actively working with exchange partners to implement an automated upgrade process.

Exchange integrations are a key step in solidifying ONINO as a bridge between traditional finance and blockchain technology.

A few words on time and what you can expect:Integration of a completely new network is no easy task for exchanges, especially since our Mainnet is built on a DAG-based approach. Standard implementation of EVM-based networks can take up to 4 weeks starting from launch of a new network.

For us the timelines can be different, but we are pushing for fast and reliable execution of the institutions we are working with. We anticipate completion of first integrations during Phase 2 of the ramp-up.

‍

Cross-Chain Bridges: Interoperability for the Future

ONINO is built for a multi-chain future. As part of the upgrade process, cross-chain bridges will be integrated, allowing seamless movement of assets between ONINO and Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and other leading blockchains.

✅ Cross-Chain Compatibility: Users will be able to bridge assets across networks effortlessly.

✅ Smart Contract Security: Bridges we integrate with will utilize audited smart contracts to ensure secure transactions.

Due to regulatory and technical reasons we will not be able to support the Binance Smart Chain token after the upgrade period ends. As the BSC token were not designed as mintable it will not be possible to create a reliant two-way bridge. Thus a redeployment of a new BSC token is necessary after the upgrade period.

Right now it is unclear if we can support the already existing Ethereum token, as this depends on the cooperation from the Chainge team to integrate the Mainnet with their existing ONI bridge. We will keep you updated on this topic and for now, there is no call to action as the upgrade period is long enough.

Currently we are working with bridge providers to create a seamless experience for cross-chain interaction. The existing ONI Tokens are:

• Binance Smart Chain: 0xea89199344a492853502a7a699cc4230854451b8
• Ethereum: 0x822757d09a8d5db5874be7f367eafae2af32d64b

Ideally we can manage to keep support for the already existing token on Ethereum, while the token on Binance Smart Chain will be disconnected after the end of the upgrade period.
