The Oasis Mainnet Beta launched Oct 1, 2020. After being stable for 10 days, the Oasis Foundation will propose an upgrade to mainnet, which will then enable staking rewards and token transfers.

The Oasis Network is a layer one, Proof of Stake platform that enables the tokenization of data, which will give ownership of data back to individuals. The Oasis Network is built with three key principles in mind: 

  • Privacy-First Design – End-to-end confidentiality and true data ownership will be supported by the Oasis Network. Compute techniques like Intel SGX’s secure enclave will be leveraged to ensure that data is not exposed on the network. The protocol can also support other privacy preserving technology such as Homomorphic encryption and Zero-knowledge proofs.
  • Resilient, Flexible Architecture – The Oasis Network is designed to support a broad range of use cases without having to go through hard-forks or large network updates. This will ensure that it can retain its utility in the long term. 
  • Real-World Performance – The Oasis Network separates computation from consensus. This will allow the network to handle more complex computations while avoiding computational backlog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I explore the network and create an Oasis wallet?

Oasis explorer: https://oasisscan.com

Oasis wallet: coming soon!

Figment is currently developing the Oasis Hubble explorer.

When are staking rewards enabled? When are transfers enabled?

In short: around Oct 20, 2020

We expect both ROSE staking and transfers to begin between mid to end of October 2020. This process will be initiated by the Oasis Foundation after mainnet beta has been stable for 10 days.

What is the name of the asset being staked?

In short: ROSE

The Oasis network’s native token, ROSE, is used to stake and to pay for transaction fees. You can read more about ROSE here.

Which type(s) and what rate of rewards can I expect? Can I stake locked/vesting tokens?

In short: locked ROSE can be staked to earn ~15% annually in ROSE

Stakers are expected to earn newly-issued ROSE tokens. 2B of the 10B fixed supply will be used to reward staking, and stakers can expect a yearly rate of 15% rewards for their stake for the first six months of Oasis mainnet. You can read more about the token economics here.

Do I maintain custody of my ROSE tokens? Who or what controls my staked ROSE token?

You will be able to self-custody your Oasis ROSE tokens, ideally using a Ledger hardware wallet. We will provide instructions for using your Ledger wallet with Oasis.

Figment has partnerships with a number of top-in-class custodians: support@figment.io

The Oasis protocol takes control of your ROSE tokens while you are staking. If you unbond your tokens, this process will take 14 days before the protocol returns your tokens to you. While your ROSE are staked, you will earn staking rewards.

How long does it take to unstake?

In short: 14 days

From the moment you initiate the unbonding process, it takes 14 days to unstake. During this time you will not earn rewards. When the process is complete, you can transfer/trade your ROSE tokens.

Can my staked ROSE be slashed (seized or destroyed)?

Yes, a portion of your staked ROSE can be destroyed.

If you delegate to a validator that signs the same block twice with the same key, you will lose 100 of your delegated tokens and your validator will be permanently removed.

There will be no slashing for validator downtime.

Can I lose out on potential rewards?

In short: yes, if your validator does not perform adequately or safely

Stakers will only receive rewards in each epoch (ie. each hour) if their validator signs at least 75% of blocks within that epoch.

A validator removed from the active set will no longer be earning its delegators any rewards. This happens when the validator that commits a safety violation (ie. equivocation, also known as double-signing), and if this happens, you will need to delegate to a new validator to resume earning rewards.

What is the rate of new issuance (aka "annual inflation") for ROSE? How does the token supply change?

Oasis will have a fixed supply, so there will be no new issuance ROSE, only newly distributed ROSE. Initially the network will launch with 1.5B tokens and will not exceed 10B. You can read more about ROSE distribution here.

How are decisions about the Oasis Protocol made and executed?

The Oasis network with use meritocratic, consensus-based community decision-making. You can read about Oasis governance process here.
