Orbion operates as a multi-environment blockchain protocol, structured around two primary networks:
Orbion Testnet – a permissionless developer environment for experimentation, validation, and onboarding.
Orbion Mainnet – a secure, high-availability production network designed for real-world deployment and long-term coordination.
This separation allows developers to iterate rapidly without compromising mainnet stability, while validators, indexers, and infrastructure providers can engage with Orbion at any stage of maturity.
Name: Orbion Testnet
Chain ID: 9119

Faucet:
The testnet supports full EVM compatibility, validator onboarding, smart contract deployment, and governance simulation. Developers are encouraged to test modules, run local nodes, and contribute to infrastructure readiness ahead of mainnet launch.
Name: Orbion Mainnet (TBA)
Chain ID: 6116
Status: Pre-launch
Target Features:
Deterministic finality (<3s)
Modular execution engine
Staking, governance, and native fee market
Future support for native bridges and sovereign modules
Mainnet will go live following sustained testnet performance, validator consensus readiness, and security audits. All testnet learnings will be incorporated into the genesis deployment.
Both networks support:
Full JSON-RPC support
MetaMask & WalletConnect integration
Hardhat & Foundry deployment tools
Archive node support for indexers
Faucet + faucet rate limiter for test accounts
Orbion encourages developers to treat testnet as a true staging ground, with the same architecture and runtime as mainnet. This ensures that code is portable, expectations are realistic, and deployment risk is minimized.
