OIC – Osmium Identification Code

Each piece of osmium is assigned a unique code before being placed on the market. This allows owners and potential buyers to access the certificate in the online database at any time and from anywhere.

The identification code consists of an eight-digit combination of letters and numbers.
The recognition reliability of the crystalline osmium surface structure is approximately 10,000 times greater than that of fingerprint recognition.
The certificate is issued exclusively by the Osmium Institute in Germany and cannot be falsified, as it is recorded in the online database.

OCC – Owner Change Code

OCC is a unique, one-time code that we need if we decide to sell osmium. It is similar to a two-step security key when signing up for an online bank. The new owner then automatically obtains the unique (new) OCC code that he will need for any further sale of osmium.

After the sale, osmium changes the owner, which is entered into the ownership database (OCC).
The OCC serves the purpose of a one-time ownership change of osmium.
Ownership changes upon registering in an online international database.
Without an OCC entry, no sale or change of ownership is possible.

OSMIUM BIG BANG

Experts call the point in time when osmium will run out “Osmium Big bang”. It is difficult to determine when this will happen. However, it is estimated that it will happen in less than ten years.

Experts agree that at the moment of the big bang there will be an exponential rise in price. This is also because of the fact that once crystallized osmium is almost impossible to recycle.
