What is Orbit Bridge?

Orbit Bridge is a bridge service that supports token conversion between mainnets and supports 15 blockchains and 58 tokens. One of the core keywords in the current crypto market is cross-chain. While there are currently at least 100 active public chains, the number of bridges that connect these ecosystems is only about 50. Many of them only support 1 to 3 public chains. The fragmented blockchain ecosystem inevitably faces limits to growth in all aspects, including market capitalization, users (including token holders), and the number of Dapps. Bridges that help users access platforms and interoperate between protocols will be the only key to solving this problem.

Which wallets are supported in Orbit Bridge?

Orbit Bridge currently supports MetaMask, Kaikas, Klip, and D'CENT. Each token supports different wallets, so please check the FROM CHAIN after selecting a TOKEN to convert.

Orbit Bridge Explorer allows you to browse transactions of several tokens. You can search by wallet address or tx hash.

What is the Orbit Bridge Validator?

The conversion of all tokens takes place through governance consensus amongst the designated validators of each chain. The world's leading blockchain infrastructure companies such as Everstake, DSRV, GBV, and Cosmostation have participated in Orbit Bridge as validators.

How to use Orbit Bridge?

Please check the How-to Guide (PC, Mobile) to use Orbit Bridge.

How to check the Gas Fee?

Most blockchains require a gas fee to process a transaction. The Bridge Fee charged for each blockchain is different. Please check this link for more details.

How to check the TAX?

The Tax charged for each blockchain is different. Please check this link for more details.

How to check the Bridge Fee?

The Bridge Fee charged for each blockchain is different. Please check this link for more details.

How to add an RPC network by blockchain?

Each blockchain has different network names, RPC URLs, chain IDs, etc. If you add a specific network, you must enter the information above in Settings > Network. Please check this link for more details.

How to set the gas fee due to the transaction delay?

Due to the nature of the Ethereum chain, in the case when there is a large number of transactions to be processed, the transaction may not go through or be subjected to a long delay. Please check this link for more details.

How to check the contract address for each blockchain network layer 1?

The contract address of the bridged token is different from that of the native token. Please check this link for more details.

Precautions using Orbit Bridge

  • Tokens accidentally sent to another address will be lost forever.

  • For tokens converting for the first time, approval is required for the transaction with a first-time contract call and a new address (only once for each token).

  • When sending your assets to an exchange, please make sure whether or not they support contract-based deposits. *If not, we recommend that you send assets to your wallet and then deposit them back to the exchange.

  • Orbit Bridge does not have access to the assets sent to the exchange contract, and it is impossible to support the recovery of any asset loss that occurs.

Precautions for converting XRP tokens

  • If you select the different networks (BEP2, BEP20, etc.) unsupported, your deposits will likely be lost.

  • Please ensure the network used for the deposit is Ripple.

  • Selecting the wrong network may cause loss of your assets.

I can't find bridged tokens in my MetaMask.

1. Add the network in your wallet(Network Name, New RPC URL, Chain ID, Currency Symbol, Block Explorer URL). 2. Import a token you converted in your wallet (Token Contract Address, Token Symbol, Decimals of Precision). 3. Depending on the network condition, there may be a delay. Please check the progress on the Orbit Bridge Explorer page.

I can't find bridged tokens in my Kaikas.

1. Add a token you converted in your wallet (Search or Custom Token: Token Contract Address, Token Symbol).

2. Depending on the network condition, there may be a delay. Please check the progress on the Orbit Bridge Explorer page.

What is the difference between bridge and swap?

Bridge supports the movement of assets between chains. For example, if you use a bridge to transfer XRP to the Klaytn chain, it will be converted to oXRP. The letter o is the acronym of Orbit Bridge. Users only need to set both FROM CHAIN and TO CHAIN to convert tokens on a bridge.

Swap refers to an exchange between tokens and tokens. KLAYswap, a decentralized exchange provides this functionality. Token swaps take place in a liquidity pool. It is a method of exchanging tokens that someone has deposited in a liquidity pool for tokens held by users. The base price of the swap is determined by an algorithm based on a smart contract.

Has Orbit Bridge completed the smart contract security audits?

Orbit Bridge has been audited by Theori in 2021. Theori is a young cybersecurity R&D startup based in Austin, TX.
