Orbs announced on June 02, 2026 the introduction of its Committee Sync MVP on Ethereum and Arbitrum as part of the Orbs V5 rollout. The upgrade is designed to enhance cross-chain verification of decentralized trading execution while lowering infrastructure requirements and broadening participation among validators. Orbs operates as a decentralized Layer 3 blockchain infrastructure focused on advanced on-chain trading, supporting protocols including dTWAP, dLIMIT, Liquidity Hub, Perpetual Hub, dSLTP, and Orbs Agentic across over 30 decentralized exchange integrations spanning more than 10 blockchain networks.
Orbs V4 Processes Over $14 Billion Trading Volume Since Launch
Orbs V5 builds on the project's existing execution layer. Since the launch of V4, the network reports that its infrastructure has processed more than $14 billion in trading volume across over 30 decentralized exchange integrations spanning more than 10 blockchain networks, generating in excess of $3.2 million in protocol revenue.
Committee Sync Distributes Layer 3 State Across EVM Chains
The updated V5 framework introduces Committee Sync, a mechanism designed to distribute authoritative Layer 3 committee state across EVM-compatible chains through aggregated Guardian signatures. The system is aimed at reducing operational costs and fragmentation associated with single-chain verification approaches, while also mitigating custody-related risks commonly linked to bridge-based infrastructure.
"V5 is the next step in our mission, which we have focused on for years. It allows fast, reliable, and secure on-chain trading," said Ran Hammer, VP of Business Development at Orbs in a written statement. "With new products like Orbs Agentic expanding what's possible for automated trading in DeFi, we're improving the execution layer beneath our protocols. This change will make execution more decentralized, efficient, and scalable across chains," he added.
Under the Committee Sync design, Orbs executors operating off-chain trading logic generate signed actions that are validated by the Orbs Guardian network and then propagated to destination blockchains. Smart contracts deployed on supported networks verify these actions locally using Guardian signatures and on-chain registry rules.
Unlike bridge-based systems, the protocol does not route user funds through the network during synchronization. Instead, only signed state data is transmitted across chains, eliminating reliance on centralized custody or liquidity locking mechanisms.
Ethereum and Arbitrum Deployment Active, Additional Networks Planned
The initial deployment phase is already active on Ethereum and Arbitrum, where smart contracts are currently synchronizing committee state, propagating nonces, and validating signatures through dedicated subnet infrastructure.
Future phases of the Orbs V5 roadmap include planned support for additional EVM-compatible networks such as Base, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Linea, Sonic, Berachain, and Monad. Additional planned enhancements include subnet scaling, signature persistence, historical state replay capabilities, and the rollout of updated Guardian node software across the network.
Orbs has indicated that all existing products will continue operating during the transition, with no expected disruption for users or ecosystem partners, while the full V5 rollout is expected to progress over the coming months as further infrastructure components are deployed.
