Orbs Institutional

What is Orbs Institutional?

Orbs Institutional is institutional-grade swap infrastructure for on-chain execution. It packages the execution layer behind leading decentralized trading venues, live in production since 2023, for trading desks, wallets, custodians, and institutional platforms.

The track record: $2.5B+ in cumulative processed volume, 10+ chains live, and 30+ venue integrations, all built on the same Orbs L3 infrastructure that powers spot execution products across DeFi.

The market structure institutions know, on-chain

Institutional trading teams expect risk-management order types and execution control as standard. Orbs Institutional delivers that market structure for on-chain execution:

  • Best price - Aggregates DEX liquidity and professional market makers through an RFQ layer for best on-chain pricing.

  • Time-sliced execution - Splits large orders over time to reduce market impact and improve execution quality. Decentralized, non-custodial, fully on-chain.

  • Price-targeted execution - Executes only when the target price is available. No manual monitoring, no off-chain custody, no desk-side intervention.

  • Stop-loss / take-profit - Automated position protection with on-chain triggers.

Self-custody, always

Orbs Institutional is built to slot into the institutional stack without custody handoff:

  • Assets never leave the client's wallet. Orders are signed from the wallet and settle back to the wallet.

  • No counterparty exposure to Orbs or any trading venue.

  • Works with existing security infrastructure: in-house MPC or any EIP-712-compatible signer.

  • The client keeps their policy engine, approval workflows, and signers. Orbs integrates and executes.

Key features

  • Non-custodial by design

  • Gasless across every product

  • MEV protected

  • Proven in production since 2023 across 30+ decentralized trading venues

Integration paths

There are two ways to access Orbs Institutional:

  1. Institutional users - API access for trading desks, OTC desks, treasuries, asset managers, and institutional execution teams.

  2. Infrastructure and access partners - Embed Orbs execution inside the platform your clients already use, with co-branded or fully white-labeled options.

Powered by the Orbs Network

All execution runs on the decentralized Orbs Network. Guardians operating under Proof-of-Stake consensus power the routing, aggregation, and order-execution services, the same infrastructure behind Liquidity Hub and the Orbs Advanced Orders Suite (dTWAP, dLIMIT, dSLTP).
