According to the statement made by Upbit, both deposits and withdrawals for $MANTRA (OM) will be activated within two hours after the official announcement.

Temporary Transaction Restrictions

As with new asset listings, some temporary trading restrictions will apply to OM:

  • Minimum Sale Price Limit: During the same period, sell orders cannot be placed at 10% below the previous closing price.
  • Order Type Limitation: Only limit orders will be accepted for 2 hours after trading starts.

These measures aim to maintain market stability and prevent sudden price fluctuations.

What is OM Token?

$MANTRA (OM) is the native token of $MANTRA Chain, a Layer 1 blockchain focused on tokenization of physical assets, based on Cosmos SDK and compatible with the Ethereum virtual machine. The network offers the following components optimized for enterprise use:

  • $MANTRA DID: Authentication system
  • $MANTRA Guard: DeFi security module that supports regulatory compliance
  • $MANTRA Token Service: Physical asset tokenization infrastructure

The OM token is used for network fees, staking, governance, authentication levels, liquidity incentives, and regulatory reporting.

The listing of $MANTRA (OM) further demonstrates Upbit’s emphasis on DeFi-focused projects in its expanding digital asset portfolio, and is expected to attract increasing interest from institutional and individual investors.
