Olympus' birth spawned a beautiful outlet of creativity known to us now as Odyssey. Odyssey allowed the community to capitalize on creative projects that were entirely centered around the ethos of Olympus. The next logical step in the epoch of Odyssey is the expansion into our own NFT marketplace. Through the Odyssey NFT marketplace, the utility of $OHM and $gOHM tokens is extended to digital culture to further its mission as the reserve asset of decentralized finance.

The platform brings users a selection of Olympus-inspired NFTs and innovative artists. The collections hosted on Odyssey will have their artwork hosted in a decentralized environment, giving any DAO/artist full control and ownership! We are also bringing a cyber-museum to life - if Olympus is New York, then Odyssey is the MoMa.

Of course, the main component that is leading the charge is our integration of $OHM and $gOHM as a buying mechanism. No longer will you have to denominate NFT purchases in ETH or swap funds over to purchase that NFT you really want; it will all live within the Olympus ecosystem and you’ll never need to unstake. There will also be a robust and fair revenue sharing program which we will expand upon so that everyone can understand the value we are bringing to the artists and collectors.

Collectors will earn rewards not only of the total volume on the platform but also of the collection-specific volume of NFTs that they own. Artists, as the lifeblood of the Odyssey marketplace, are the main focus of the platform -  we want them and their collections to shine. Odyssey relies on community-led curation.

Of course, no Olympus project is complete without a strong and well-funded treasury. The treasury will be the curator of payments, royalties, and rewards to buyers.

Art is in a superstate where it constantly fluctuates between art, proof of ownership, access keys, items (physical and digital), and perceived values. It’s ok to collect NFTs for different reasons, whether it’s the art, the money, the tech, or the membership.
