How it works

Orbit Bridge system structure diagram

The Orbit Bridge system has Governance groups comprised of the roles: Operator and Validator. Bridging protocols either use a MPC-based transaction consensus method or a Multi-sig based transaction consensus method. Orbit Bridge uses Multi-sig based transaction consensus. Through this, the Operator, who sends data, and the Validator work together to efficiently and quickly process transactions. Additionally, as the consensus and validation processes happen through transactions on Orbit Chain, they are transparent and trustless. The validators use a separate private channel and a blockchain without central authority to complete their tasks.

• Operator

  • Relays the information needed by Governance for actual operation.

  • Each piece data signed by the Validators is assembled and executed by forming a transaction that runs on the chain.

• Validator

  • A group of Validators constituting Governance verify the TX generated by each chain and records verification in the chain to reach an consensus.
