Omni, a Start-up Advised by Chris Larsen and Stefan Thomas, Integrates XRP

Omni is a brainchild of Thomas MacLeod and with Stefan Thomas, the former CTO of Ripple and founder of Coil, another Xpring supported company joining Chris Larsen the co-founder of Ripple as a member of Omni advisory board, the start-up is poised to change the concept of ownership.

Months after sealing a $25 million deal with Ripple and other participants including Vivi Nevo, Founders Fund, Karlie Kloss, Omni is now integrating XRP.
