Nomina (NOM) has just been renamed from OMNI. This article will quickly introduce you to its price trends, ecological mechanisms, and trading guide, providing a clear starting path for Newbies.
Renaming Controversy: The Meaning Behind Omni → Nomina
In September 2025, Omni Labs officially announced that Omni Network would be renamed to Nomina. This renaming is not just a name change, but also reflects the project’s desire to enter the cryptocurrency market with a more inclusive and accessible attitude. The new name signifies the network’s meaning of “naming” and “identity.”
At the token level, original OMNI token holders can exchange them for NOM at a ratio of 1:75. The migration process is completed automatically, without the need for user action. When the renaming is released, existing OMNI staking will also be paused, and new staking functions will be launched subsequently.
In the market, there are reports indicating that after the rebranding, OMNI / NOM experienced a short-term increase, reaching a peak of 6%. This shows a positive market reaction to the brand revitalization, but whether it can be sustained remains to be seen.
Technical Highlights: Dual Staking and Security Mechanism
The technical core of Nomina lies in the dual staking mechanism:
- NOM Native Staking: Users can lock NOM to participate in network consensus and governance.
- ETH Re-staking: Nomina allows a portion of ETH to be staked at the Ethereum layer and then used as collateral on the Nomina chain.
This design allows Nomina to balance its economic incentives and ecological security, thereby possessing a certain competitive edge in terms of decentralized security.
In terms of token supply, the total supply of NOM is 7.5 billion, with an initial circulation of about 2.9 billion.
