ℹ️ About Orbit
Orbit is a money market between lenders, wishing to earn additional yield on their asset holdings, and borrowers, looking to borrow assets with the use of other assets as collateral.
Orbit differs from other money markets as lenders can choose a predetermined lending period in return for Orbit Assets (oAssets), which represent the lender's initial principal as well as accrued yield.
Upon expiry of the predetermined lending period, oAssets can be redeemed for principal + accrued yield - this simplifies yield collection to be done just by holding on to them.
🔮 Being Powered By Pyth sends out into orbit
The price oracle is used within Orbit to know the current prices of collateral assets, which are then used to dictate whether borrows or liquidations are possible.
All prices within Orbit are #PoweredByPyth — thanks to the Pyth pull design, Orbit has access to 450+ price feeds, permissionlessly, on Blast.
As we progress through the first week of @Blast_L2 mainnet, one particular project has caught our attention…
@OrbitLending, a native lending protocol has amassed $100m+ in TVL across their USDB and ETH markets as users earn the base APR, $ORBIT rewards and both Blast Points and Gold on top
Orbit Lending on @Blast_L2 mainnet has just broke $400M in TVL 🥮 and over 3000 unique $ORBIT holders

We've partnered with @parsec_finance to integrate Orbit analytics!
You can find stats for all in/out flows and more
Glad to be working with Blast builders that are creating great products
As of next week, 100% of Protocol revenue from borrower interest will be shared as $ORBIT rewards to $ORBIT stakers
All fees will be used to acquire $ORBIT from the open market, 100% of which is distributed to $ORBIT stakers
Earn $ORBIT on @Blast_L2 at https://t.co/eebYJXtKKl
Our thesis is:
1. Give more rewards to $ORBIT stakers
2. Which is more value to $ORBIT
3. Leading to better rewards for lenders/borrowers
$ORBIT backers are not allowed to stake locked tokens. Reward priority and incentives are always focused on our users
We have noticed an increase in high risk accounts. Be safe with your LTVs and lower your risk.
We shipped major updates to our dashboards to make this more friendly to users. Liquidations happen above 80%. Be diligent and check/manage your risk.

🥮 Important @OrbitLending facts 🥮
1. 100% of @Blast_L2 deposit points get redistributed back to our users
2. We are among the first to complete our points API integration but the interface has a lag and points should show up on users balances over the week along with fixes
3. We have confirmed with the Blast team that they do not think Orbit is creating a liquid proxy for Gold - contrary to false rumors
4. 100% of Orbits Blast Gold goes back to our users and $ORBIT stakers - more details on our key incentive mechanics will be shared end of week
5. All of Orbit backers, angels and team are on vested schedules for their support. There is no outsized advantage - we prioritize rewarding users the most
6. Native yield that accrues from deposits is driven into the $ORBIT token as part of our reward mechanics - this is designed methodically to generate an attractive lending environment on @Blast_L2

@Blast_L2 and @PacmanBlur have performed an incredible feat so far and there are still lots to be built -
Orbit is here to be a foundational anchor on @Blast_L2 for the ecosystem to flourish
gm gm. wanted to highlight some issues and changes we’re actively working on (most important ones highlighted in bold). will post updates as they get resolved
issues we’re currently fixing
- having less points after migrating to mainnet (this is due to referral points not showing, eta later today)
- not earning points despite having a balance on mainnet/users seeing 0 points per hour (eta mid-week)
- not seeing the # points dapps have distributed to you (eta late this week)
- seeing less than a 10x bonus in the mainnet transition flow (ui/design issue, will share an eta once design is updated)
- seeing a warning that you won’t earn your bonus in time despite having the same amount of funds on mainnet as before mainnet (eta for most users later today, for some users late this week)
- points + gold system being unclear — the confusion is exacerbated by the ui bugs above. fixing the issues should help a lot, but we’re actively working to improve the ui to make everything clearer. will share updates as we make progress
changes we’re making
- delegating to wallets to earn multipliers (eta tbd but aiming to have done before the first multipliers go live on mar 13)
- blastscan colorscheme (we’re working with the @etherscan team to improve this)
- mainnet leaderboard (current one is early access leaderboard, eta mid-late this week)
incentive issues
- holding funds onchain gives you blast points. using dapps gives you blast points + gold + individual dapp airdrops (as applicable). so it is strictly better to be using dapps, but that’s only after dapps have properly integrated with the api. it’s important to note that gold has not been distributed to dapps yet. we’ll make an announcement when the first gold has been distributed
- once dapps have properly integrated with the points api to send points back to depositors, it should be a lot easier to actively use dapps. we’ll highlight dapps that are properly set up as their integrations go live
we’ve also gotten questions on how dapps can be listed on the airdrop page. guidelines for that will be shared later this week
if there’s anything else we’re missing, please lmk. in terms of how we got here, we put A LOT of energy into the on-chain/l2 side of things, since that’s where the stakes were highest. but that took away focus from the points side of things, which has lead to a lot of confusion and frustration. we’re now correcting that mistake and we will put much more energy into the points side of things moving forward. apologies for the confusion everyone! we’ll share updates on everything as improvements go live
We're doing an upgrade on our website! 🥮
You will now see how borrowing and the amount you supply as collateral affects your risk of liquidation
We've also updated the dashboard to reflect the available $ORBIT you're eligble to claim.
Points stats and more coming soon!
Our retroactive rewards airdrop is complete
All users from day one have been airdropped their earned emissions
Lend now and receive addtional apy in $ORBIT
