Tokenomics
The utility and governance token of the Orbitraz protocol
Every $ORBT in circulation has a job: securing a stake, rewarding a data submission, funding a collision bounty, or casting a governance vote.
How $ORBT moves through the protocol.
The OrbitToken, DataVault, and CollisionBounty contracts are live on testnet. See real supply, pools, and addresses.
When a satellite operator performs a fuel-optimized collision avoidance maneuver through the Orbitraz protocol, a portion of the saved fuel cost is captured as value.
Operators receive $ORBT tokens proportional to:
Fuel saved (verified by on-chain data)
Successful execution of smart contract maneuvers
Why This Matters: Every maneuver becomes a profit center, not a cost center.
Validators stake $ORBT to participate in consensus and verify the accuracy of orbital data.
Additional $ORBT rewards from the protocol's incentive pool
Governance power proportional to stake
Validators face "slashing" (loss of staked tokens) if they approve false data, ensuring economic alignment with honesty.
All network services (data broadcasts, maneuver requests) are paid in $ORBT. A percentage of each fee is:
Creating deflationary pressure, increasing scarcity over time.
Funding ecosystem development, grants, and partnerships.
By design, every efficient maneuver creates value for the network. Protocol service fees fund operator rewards, validator staking, and token burns — so as the network scales, demand for what $ORBT actually does grows with it.
These are forward-looking mechanics of the protocol's economic design, activated at mainnet under a compliant token-issuance structure. $ORBT is a utility token, not an offer of equity or a promise of financial return.
