1. Ethereum network fees are extremely high. Users are getting a bad experience.

2. OMG network is exchange neutral. It’s not owned by an exchange nor does it own an exchange.

3. It’s production ready now.

4. Vitalik recommended the OMG Network and tether has put USD 3 million on it.

5. Able to scale to millions of TPS and right now it can do 5k TPS. Further decentralization is being worked on.
