According to Variational, Omni’s private mainnet test began on Arbitrum in January 2025. It reported more than $1.5 billion in open interest and more than $450 billion in cumulative trading volume. Variational said Omni supported more than 550 cryptocurrency and traditional-finance markets and charged zero trading fees.
Those figures describe trading activity, not protocol revenue or value accruing to VAR holders. The report did not provide revenue figures or a basis for valuing the token. PANews also noted Variational’s earlier announcement that the VAR token generation event was scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026, with 32% allocated to a genesis airdrop.
