Orbit, Hedera's fastest all-in-one DeFi platform, set to launch in Q3 2025.

Blazing speed, real-time analytics, and one-click trading. Launching early Q3 2025 for every Hedera trader. Discover, snipe and set orders across the entire web3 ecosystem.

Orbit is about to change how trading works on Hedera. Built by traders who got tired of friction - Orbit lands in early Q3 2025. With real-time analytics and one-click execution, Orbit is bringing cheat-code level speed to Hedera DeFi users. Missed snipes, slow tabs, and unfilled limit orders are about to become a relic of the past.

It’s about addressing pain points that most serious traders experience. Scattered tools, untimely data, and execution that lags behind intuition. Now there’s one place to discover, analyze, and act without switching tabs or missing entries. Whether you're deep in Hedera or a cross-chain degen, Orbit unifies trading into one fast, focused experience.

The first integration is with SaucerSwap, Hedera’s busiest market. More DEXs, launchpads, and cross-chain assets are on the way. Orbit is breaking new ground as the first trading layer built specifically for Hedera, and it’s promising to bring an entirely new, high-performance experience to DeFi.

Built by a team of trench veterans

Orbit wasn't born out of your run-of-the-mill venture capital roadmap. Its genesis was the frustration of traders who felt the pain of slow tools and scattered data. The team behind Orbit genuinely knows what it means to miss a move. They built Orbit to bring speed to Hedera DeFi, giving traders clear and fast access to what matters.

Quick reads, fast clicks, and confident execution. Every part of the platform reflects the pace and precision traders expect. It's the culmination of years the team spent trading, swapping, and occasionally missing that elusive 100x pump.

“Built by those in the DeFi trenches, Orbit brings speed, transparency, and a new standard for both retail and cross-chain traders,” says Westin, CEO of Orbit Labs.

Friction was fact for DeFi traders

Much of the current DeFi trading tools leave users feeling like they're bringing a knife to a gunfight. No central hub or single place to track, analyze, and execute in real-time. Traders bounced between tabs at a mind-bending pace.

Every trade came with some kind of delay, with every millisecond adding risk. Simple actions took too long, with security checks being manual and clunky. Limit orders didn’t exist across Hedera DEXs. The tools couldn’t keep up with the traders using them, leaving users feeling like they were perpetually a few steps behind.

And if you were trying to snipe a new token or protect a position, those steps mattered. Orbit is the response, eliminating friction points in Hedera DeFi that previously cost users precise entries and optimal exits.

“DeFi traders deserve tools that work as fast and hard as they do,” says Delon de Metz, Senior Director of Business Development for Growth at the Hedera Foundation. “With Orbit, our mission is to remove every barrier between traders and their edge on the market.”

The edge Hedera traders deserve

With Orbit, Hedera traders have a go-to hub for trading and DeFi. The unified dashboard is easy on the eyes, with analytics, execution, and tracking all in one place. You can even execute wallet functions straight out of the interface. Real-time token discovery and trending alerts enable traders to pounce on new opportunities.

Orders execute instantly, with native support for on-chain limit orders across supported DEXs. Every token also comes with automated audit reports that highlight risk factors before traders act. Plus your wallet connects directly to the interface, making portfolio management and execution feel like a breeze.

For cross-chain traders new to the network, the learning curve is minimal. Orbit feels intuitive and fast, and for Hedera natives, it raises the standard for what native DeFi should be. It’s all about split-second decisions, quick reads, and confident clicks.

Here’s a rundown of Orbit’s core feature set:

  • One connected trading dashboard
  • Instant order execution with limit support
  • Real-time audit insights for token risk
  • Portfolio tracking tied to a non-custodial wallet
  • Precision tools for sniping new launches

Democratizing access to DeFi tools

Orbit is filling a clear and overdue gap in the Hedera ecosystem, giving traders what they need to succeed. On-chain limit orders help them set precise trades. Real-time analytics keep them informed. Seamless execution lets them act fast. Now, all these features are coming together in one Hedera-native platform.

From day one, the Orbit team's focus has been on performance. Fast trading, faster insights, and convenience that help traders operationalize their conviction on-demand. They're pulling from the best of what they've seen in other ecosystems, and raising the bar on Hedera.

“We saw a clear gap and a clear opportunity to bring to Hedera what other competitive markets already have,” says Juno, CMO of Orbit Labs. “Orbit is designed to meet that need head-on and create an engaging, seamless experience for the Hedera community.”

Now’s the time to get your wallet ready and follow Orbit on X for updates. Once it’s live, you’ll be able to snipe, swap, and set orders across the Hedera ecosystem with speed and precision.
