Orbs has launched its decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO), introducing a governance framework that shifts protocol decision-making to its global community.

The rollout is set to begin in the coming weeks, marking a step toward fully decentralised governance.

The DAO launch represents a milestone for Orbs following years of infrastructure development, product deployment, and regulatory planning.

“Governance only works when there is something real to govern,” said Ran Hammer, Chief Business Officer at Orbs.

“After years of building products, generating revenue, and scaling adoption, we are now in a position where the community can actively shape the protocol’s future with real data and real impact.”

Instead of introducing governance early, the protocol focused on building a base of active products, integrations, and revenue streams to support more effective on-chain decision-making.

Orbs has developed a suite of Layer-3 trading protocols currently in production, including dLIMIT, dTWAP, Liquidity Hub, Perpetual Hub, and dSLTP.

The ecosystem has processed more than $3 billion in cumulative trading volume and generated over $3 million in protocol revenue to date.

The network also supports more than 30 decentralised exchange integrations across multiple chains and is secured by over 1 billion staked ORBS tokens.

The DAO will oversee key aspects of the protocol, including the allocation of revenue, token economics, network upgrades, validator oversight, and ecosystem grants.

This will include decisions on how fees generated by Orbs’ trading protocols are used, along with parameters related to staking rewards, token supply mechanisms, and liquidity strategies.

A key feature of the Orbs DAO is its seasonal governance model. Instead of fixing long-term parameters, the DAO will operate in defined cycles, allowing the community to regularly reassess priorities, adjust tokenomics, and reallocate resources based on changing market conditions.

The structure is intended to balance flexibility with operational discipline.

The rollout will begin with two initial governance votes.

The first will establish the DAO’s core structure, including voting mechanisms and operational frameworks.

The second will focus on Season 1 tokenomics, giving the community the ability to decide how protocol revenue is distributed across areas such as token burns, staking incentives, liquidity provisioning, and treasury reserves.

The move comes as decentralised finance protocols increasingly activate governance over revenue streams, reflecting a broader shift toward community-driven capital allocation and long-term sustainability.

With the DAO rollout, Orbs aims to build on its existing governance structure, which includes Guardians and Delegators responsible for network security, by expanding into a broader framework for protocol-level decision-making.

The transition is intended to give the community a more active role in shaping the network’s long-term direction.
