3 articles · Updated · Markets Insider · Jun 14

Summary

  • Orbs on June 14 unveiled Orbs Institutional, giving trading desks, OTC firms, treasuries, custodians and financial platforms direct access to its on-chain execution stack.
  • The offering targets institutions seeking DeFi access without giving up execution quality, custody control or transparency, using Orbs' Liquidity Hub to aggregate DEX and market-maker liquidity through a private RFQ layer.
  • More than $2.5 billion in spot volume has run through the technology since 2023 across 30-plus DEX integrations and over 10 blockchain networks, after previously being available only through venues such as PancakeSwap and SushiSwap.
  • Institutions can connect through APIs or via white-label and co-branded integrations, while keeping assets under client control and signing orders with existing custody, treasury or MPC systems that support EIP-712.
  • Orbs said demand should rise as professional firms expand in digital assets, betting the next phase of DeFi adoption will center on self-custodied, automated access to on-chain liquidity.
