Powered by ORB

One token for the whole network

ORB rewards verified contribution, pays for AI and network services, and governs the protocol. It runs today in production on Base, with staking, rewards, signed claims, and sanctions screening already live.

Utility

Earn, spend, stake, govern

Earn

Contributors earn ORB for verified compute, inference, personalization, data, and bandwidth work.

Spend

Pay for AI and network services, priority compute, and enterprise or API access.

Stake

Operators stake for training rights with slashing; holders stake for governance and rewards.

Govern

ORB governs the protocol, progressively assuming control of the network economy over time.

Distribution

Where ORB goes

The plurality funds verified compute and network work. Team and investor allocations are a minority and fully vested.

The honest line

Illustrative allocation for the unified ORB economy. Final parameters are set with counsel and disclosed at the token event. Nothing here is an offer of securities.

Sustainable by design

A token that pays for real demand

Learned from the full arc of network economies, from the hotspot gold rushes to the token collapses.

Value before emissions

Reward real, verified work and fund buybacks from genuine service revenue, never from inflation alone. This is the discipline that separated the survivors from the death spirals.

Burn from revenue

Paid jobs burn ORB, so scarcity tracks demonstrated demand rather than a headcount or a calendar.

Operator payouts stabilized

Node payouts are referenced to a stable value and throttled by revenue, so operators are not forced sellers of a volatile token.

The flywheel

Company revenue lifts the whole economy

Service revenue buys back and burns ORB. As Hylon wins, contribution rewards, the treasury, and the token compound together, funded by demand rather than dilution. Hardware is financed with corporate debt, not a fixed yield product for users.
