As a strategic subsidiary of Animoca Brands Corporation Limited, Animoca Brands Japan is a major player in the web3 space. Established to support Japanese intellectual property and content holders, including major publishers, brands, educational institutions, sports organizations, and game developers, Animoca Brands Japan brings a wealth of expertise and an extensive network to the Orbs ecosystem.
Animoca Brands Japan joins a high-quality group of Guardians tasked with supporting the continued success of the Orbs network. Orbs Guardians are essential to the network’s proof-of-stake mechanism and provide the backbone for Orbs’ Layer 3 technology. This provides DeFi platforms with decentralized backend solutions, offering scalable, efficient, and secure trading capabilities without the need for centralized infrastructure.
Guardians are crucial in ensuring Orbs’ core protocols operate with robustness, efficiency, and stability:
- dTWAP & dLIMIT: Advanced trading order solutions
- Liquidity Hub: Aggregated liquidity for DEXs
- Perpetual Hub: A comprehensive suite for decentralized perpetuals platforms
These protocols deliver CeFi-level execution to DeFi platforms and are integrated with leading projects such as PancakeSwap, Sushiswap, QuickSwap, and SpookySwap. Orbs’ Liquidity Hub protocol has become the industry standard for delivering superior DEX pricing.
The onboarding of Animoca Brands Japan further strengthens Orbs’ liquidity solutions, which are now integrated into a host of L2 networks and protocols. As a Guardian, Animoca Brands Japan will power Orbs’ protocols, which are widely used by entities such as traders, third-party solvers competing to fill swaps using on-chain liquidity, and professional traders such as market makers. In the process, Animoca Brands Japan will raise awareness of Orbs technology across Asia while helping to grow its ecosystem.
