An animated explainer diving into crypto and decentralized apps (dApps), built around Orbs' blockchain platform.
Orbs exist to solve one of the biggest problems that blockchain faces. Scalability.
Ethereum has a large network, but gets bogged down easily. EOS has a quick way to approve transactions, but with only 21 nodes, they're pretty centralized.
With Orbs, you get the speed of EOS with the security of Ethereum. Orbs uses blockchain virtualization, virtual chains that insulate each dApp on the general network, just like web hosting services do for websites.
This protects each dApp from heavy traffic that might slow down a shared network. We use randomized proof of stake.
Each block is validated by a customizable committee of at least 22 nodes, randomly selected from 1,000 nodes over the entire Orbs network. Orbs is customizable. Instead of getting hit by high gas fees on every transaction like on Ethereum, every dApp pays by monthly subscription, eliminating the unpredictability found on other networks.
Orbs acts as a production layer to Ethereum. Launch your token on Ethereum, put the original tokens on Preserve, and then move to Orbs to increase efficiency.
You don't need to wait for Ethereum updates. Orbs can help you scale your app now.
So if you're developing your dApp, are in the ICO stage, or have already launched, stay up to date with Orbs.
