omChain stands out with a payments-first architecture, predictable low fees in OMC, and rapid confirmation times optimized for high-throughput dApps and bridge flows. Compared to general-purpose L1s, its efficiency and interoperability focus reduce latency and slippage for cross-chain swaps; benchmark it by tracking average gas cost, block speed, TPS, and daily active addresses on the official site (https://omchain.io).
omChain uses OMC as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain OMC by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge OMC to omChain, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select omChain as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on omChain you can use thirdweb, which provides an easy way to build, monetize and scale your apps, games or agents. You can find detailed guides and documentation on https://portal.thirdweb.com to get started quickly.
To add omChain to your wallet, you can connect your wallet and click on [Add to Wallet] button at the top of the page. Alternatively, you can add the network manually using the RPC URL and chain details and add it to your wallet's network settings.
To send OMC on omChain, ensure your wallet is connected to the omChain network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of OMC to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
