Token application:

The team propose establishing a PoS Bridge that will allow users to transfer their EVM-based OM onto the MANTRA Chain upon the mainnet's release - and vice-versa, creating an environment of expansion rather than replacement of EVM OM. To be clear, we are not deprecating the ERC20 OM token.
