Orbiter Token (OBT) is the native cryptocurrency of Orbiter Finance, a platform that allows you to quickly and easily transfer Ethereum across multiple blockchains. With OBT, you can facilitate these cross-chain transactions efficiently.
Orbiter Finance is a protocol that enables secure and decentralized transfers of Ethereum and Bitcoin assets across various rollups. It supports networks like Ethereum, zkSync Era, Linea, Mantle, Base, StarkNet, and others.
The protocol operates with two main participants:
> Sender: You, the user initiating a transfer.
> Maker: A provider facilitating the transfer between networks.
When you start a transfer, you send assets directly to the Maker's address on the source network. The Maker then sends the corresponding assets to your address on the destination network. This direct approach ensures quick and efficient transactions.
To maintain security, Orbiter Finance uses an arbitration mechanism. If you don't receive your assets promptly, you can initiate arbitration. This process ensures that any disputes are resolved fairly, maintaining trust in the system.
