Investment Risk
The performance of most crypto assets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in crypto assets.
Lack of Protections
Crypto assets are largely unregulated and neither the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) nor the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) will protect you in the event something goes wrong with your crypto asset investments.
Liquidity Risk
There is no guarantee that investments in crypto assets can be easily sold at any given time.
Complexity
Investments in crypto assets can be complex, making it difficult to understand the risks associated with the investment. You should do your own research before investing. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Concentration Risk
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on anyone to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.
Five questions to ask yourself
- Am I comfortable with the level of risk? Can I afford to lose my money?
- Do I understand the investment and could I get my money out easily?
- Are my investments regulated?

Dive deeper into Orbs
Orbs (ORBS) is an open, decentralized public blockchain operating on a permissionless network with a Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. The platform facilitates interoperability by supporting two primary Layer 1 networks: Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and The Open Network (TON).
What is Orbs
Orbs, a hybrid decentralized blockchain, combines the benefits of the PoS consensus mechanism with a unique virtual chain infrastructure. This blend aids in the creation of the next wave of decentralized applications (dApps). The platform offers both client and smart contract development kits (SDKs), enabling development to be secure, efficient, and cost-effective. At the same time, with isolated virtual chains, Orbs ensures that congestion on one chain doesn't hinder the performance of others.
The Orbs team
The Orbs team consists of professionals with backgrounds in blockchain and cryptocurrency. Daniel Peled serves as Orbs' president and is also the co-founder and CEO of the fintech startup, PayKey. The team also includes Tal Kol, co-founder of Appixia, which was acquired by Wix.com, Netta Korin, formerly an investment banker on Wall Street, and Uriel Paled, a blockchain consultant. The team has collaborated with ventures such as Polygon Labs as part of their ongoing efforts for the platform.
How does Orbs work
Orbs has three main features: Virtual chains, randomized Proof of Stake, and cross-chain interoperability. Virtual chains operate on a shared node infrastructure, ensuring isolation between chains and preventing congestion. The platform's unique PoS model, known as Randomized Proof of Stake (RPoS), ensures security and scalability by randomly selecting validators from a broad pool and utilizing smaller committees for consensus. Finally, through smart contracts, Orbs offers a bridge to Ethereum, allowing users to tap into Ethereum's capabilities without exiting the Orbs environment.
ORBS tokenomics
There is a maximum supply of 10 billion ORBS. ORBS is used as a means of payment on the platform, primarily used to settle application execution fees. Moreover, the token also plays a pivotal role in electing public network permissionless validators in a secure and decentralized manner.
ORBS distribution
ORBS tokens were distributed in the following way:
- 55 percent to long-term reserves.
- 20 percent to private sales.
- 20 percent went to the team and founding partners.
- 5 percent to project advisors.
