🔹Orb Coin
$ORB is the native asset of the Orbion blockchain, acting as the foundational utility, coordination, and incentive layer across the entire network. Its design follows the principle of economic neutrality — serving as gas, security, governance power, and value bridge, all without rent-seeking inflation.
$ORB is not a currency — it is infrastructure.
⚙️ Core Utilities
1. 🧾 Transaction Fees
All on-chain activity — from simple transfers to smart contract executions — is paid in $ORB. This includes:
Gas fees for EVM operations
Contract deployments
Governance calls
Bridge requests
⚡ Dynamic fee model based on EIP-1559 with optional tip and partial burn.
2. 🛡️ Staking & Validator Bonding
$ORB is the backbone of Orbion's delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) model.
Validators must bond $ORB to join the active set
Delegators stake $ORB to earn block rewards
Misbehaving actors are penalized (slashing) in $ORB
Higher stake = higher consensus weight
Staking is both a right and a risk. $ORB aligns incentives with protocol security.
3. 🗳️ Governance & DAO Voting
$ORB is the only token used for on-chain governance actions:
Submitting proposals
Voting on upgrades
Approving treasury allocations
Electing strategic protocol directions
Voting power is proportional to staked $ORB. The protocol belongs to its contributors.
4. ♻️ Liquidity Pairing & AMM Fuel
$ORB is the default base asset in Orbion Finance:
Paired in DEX liquidity pools (e.g. ORB/USDT, ORB/ETH)
Used to incentivize liquidity mining
Required for token listing in native DEX
By concentrating liquidity around ORB, Orbion becomes capital-efficient.
5. 🔗 Bridge Collateral
$ORB will serve as collateral and relay gas in future cross-chain bridge operations:
Native bridge fees paid in $ORB
Wrapped $ORB (wORB) for bridged assets
ORB staking required to run bridge relayers (planned)
This allows Orbion to scale horizontally while preserving economic anchoring.
🔒 Supply Constraints
Fixed initial supply: 100,000,000 ORB
No inflation without governance approval
Portion of gas is burned → deflationary under high activity
Locked allocations transparently managed via smart contracts
🧠 Design Philosophy
$ORB is designed for utility first, speculation second. It is:
Spendable
Stakeable
Slashable
Governable
Swappable
Verifiable
Every function on Orbion requires $ORB — not because of tokenomics, but because of protocol logic.
