In the fast-growing sector of Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization, community-driven initiatives play a pivotal role in bridging technology with real-world adoption. MANTRA Chain, an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain engineered for compliant, institutional-grade asset tokenization has designated Onchain OMies as its official Genesis NFT collection. Comprising 8,888 uniquely generative NFTs, Onchain OMies has successfully transitioned from its original deployment on Stargaze to become a native asset on MANTRA Chain’s EVM environment.
This migration is more than a technical relocation; it represents the deep integration of a vibrant community with the chain’s core infrastructure, positioning holders at the forefront of trillions in potential on-chain RWA value.
Launched in early 2025 on the Cosmos-based Stargaze platform, Onchain OMies was created by artist 
The mint generated significant demand, attracting over 15,000 addresses. Momentum peaked with standout sales, including the record-breaking acquisition of OMie #8888 (“Pink Diamond”) for 88,888 $OM (approximately $90,000 at the time) by MANTRA co-founder John Patrick Mullin. This transaction underscored institutional confidence and helped establish Onchain OMies as the cultural backbone of the MANTRA ecosystem.
MANTRA Chain differentiates itself through built-in regulatory tools, including Decentralized Identifiers (DID) and Soulbound Tokens. These features enable secure, KYC/AML-compliant tokenization of real-world assets such as real estate, commodities, and financial instruments while maintaining full EVM compatibility for seamless DeFi integration.
In early March 2026, the chain completed a major token upgrade: the native token transitioned from $OM to $MANTRA via a 1:4 non-dilutive redenomination. This change streamlined liquidity, enhanced exchange support, and aligned the ecosystem under the new $MANTRA ticker.
To align with MANTRA’s primary EVM environment, Onchain OMies implemented a robust burn-and-mint relayer system. The process preserves every original trait, token ID, and IPFS-hosted metadata while converting the NFTs to ERC-721 standards with 5% creator royalties.
Migration Steps (via onchainomies.com/migrate):
The operation is one-way and irreversible, typically completing in 2–5 minutes at minimal cost (Stargaze gas fees only). Holders can migrate multiple NFTs in a single transaction.
As of mid-March 2026, migration progress stands at approximately 52% (roughly 4,649 of 8,888 OMies successfully transferred). The official @OnchainOMies X account now highlights “8,888 NFTs Avail on @MANTRA_Chain EVM,” signaling the collection’s established presence on its new home.
The urgency intensified following Stargaze’s technical transition to the Cosmos Hub around March 17, 2026. Secondary trading has fully shifted to Element Market, MANTRA’s native NFT marketplace, where liquidity and ecosystem tools are optimized.
Element Market’s support for the Onchain OMies migration underscores the seamless integration into MANTRA’s infrastructure.
Only migrated OMies on MANTRA EVM qualify for full ecosystem rewards, including:
These incentives reinforce the collection’s role as the chain’s ambassador layer, delivering both cultural value and tangible utility.
As MANTRA Chain accelerates institutional adoption with live products including the mantraUSD stablecoin and partnerships for tokenized real estate and commodities, Onchain OMies holders are uniquely positioned to benefit. The community’s motto, “OMies always show up,” now resonates strongly on native soil.
In a market often dominated by short-term speculation, Onchain OMies exemplifies thoughtful alignment between art, community, and infrastructure. The project is poised to support MANTRA’s vision of compliant, scalable RWA tokenization at global scale.
