OlympusDAO, a decentralized reserve protocol published a blueprint detailing its plan to build a robust ecosystem around its native currency OHM. Dubbed as Olympus12, it is a 12-month action plan for how the DeFi protocol will achieve its goal of making its native asset OHM Web3’s premiere decentralized reserve currency. On why developing a reserve currency is vital, the blog explained that the primary goal of the Web3 financial movement is to ‘foster an alternative economic ecosystem that serves the needs of its various stakeholders’.
The post also mentioned that other objectives included having access to unique purpose-built assets that are widely and uniformly available across L1s and L2s and ability to transact or store value in highly decentralized and censorship-resistant assets. These will not depend on the traditional financial ecosystem for validation or survival.
Here is the summary of the OlympusDAO Action plan for 2022.
