What is Orbs?
Orbs is an open-source, decentralized application that promotes the adoption of blockchain among enterprises. The platform is a public blockchain for smart contracts and complements the Ethereum standards. A network of validators implements the Orbs system through a proof-of-stake consensus algorithm. The PoS features validators, guardians, and delegators.
Orbs apply a randomized proof-of-stake consensus called Helix, where a group of 22 validators is randomly selected in every validation round, in the validator layer. The protocol is interoperable with the Ethereum blockchain and thus serves as a scalability solution.
ORBS is an ERC20 standardized token powering the Orbs protocol. The token is used in proof-of-work governance, where Ethereum is used as an external decentralized aspect of trust. There are currently 2.88 billion circulating ORBS tokens from an uncapped cumulative supply of 10 billion.
55% of ORBS token supply is set for long-term reserves, 20% is allocated to private sales, 20% to the team, and 5% to the advisors. The platform had an initial token supply of 10 billion, where 80% of the supply is allocated to founders, and 20% to investors. Orbs were launched in 2017 by founders Daniel Peled, Tal Kol, Netta Korin, and Uriel Peled.
