Learn the language of Orbit Moon
Look up the market, wallet and platform terms used across Orbit.
TL;DR
- Wallet terms describe access and custody; market terms describe pricing and execution; lifecycle terms describe the coin’s current state.
- A project name, ticker or verified link is not a substitute for the coin’s contract address.
- “Accrued”, “estimated” and “unrealised” do not mean money has already reached your wallet.
Use this page when a guide or product label is unfamiliar. Definitions describe Orbit’s usage, but the linked reference still owns the complete mechanism and its limits.
Account and wallet
Address — A public Base Chain identifier beginning 0x. Copy it rather than typing it.
Base Chain — The blockchain network Orbit uses for coins, ETH balances and transactions.
ETH — The asset used to buy Orbit coins and pay network cost where required.
Gas — The fee paid to Base Chain for processing a transaction. It is separate from Orbit’s trading fee.
Orbit-managed wallet — A trading wallet whose key Orbit currently holds for a passkey or social account and uses through approved signing paths.
Platform Wallet — A separate, empty, Orbit-controlled address reserved for future platform items. Do not send funds to it.
Private key / seed phrase — Secret wallet material that controls the wallet and its assets.
Recovery phrase — The 12 words used to recover an Orbit account. They do not restore an external wallet’s separate seed phrase.
Transaction hash — The public identifier for an on-chain action, used to check its status on a Base explorer.
Coin lifecycle
Bonding curve — The formula and vault that price buys and sells before graduation.
Coming soon — A deployed coin whose curve has not opened.
Graduation target — The selected 10, 25 or 50 ETH curve scale. Reaching the end of its 800-million-token curve makes the coin ready to graduate.
Graduated — The curve is permanently closed and the coin trades through its Uniswap V4 pool.
Owner NFT — The transferable NFT whose current holder controls owner-only coin actions.
Standard burn address — The conventional address that receives the full-range LP NFT at graduation. There is no known private key or protocol recovery path, making that position effectively irrecoverable.
Pod — The coin’s shared 3D space, with project identity and provisioned presence, voice, media and market surfaces.
Sunset — The final wind-down state available to an inactive coin that did not graduate.
Ticker — The short A–Z and 0–9 symbol shown beside the coin name. It is not guaranteed to be unique.
Trading and holdings
Accrued — Recorded as earned by a contract or service but not necessarily distributed or claimable.
Holder — A wallet that currently owns some of the coin’s token supply.
Impact fee — An additional bonding-curve fee for a trade above 10% price impact. It responds to the movement caused by the trade, not trader identity.
Liquidity — Assets available in a market to support buys and sells.
Market cap — Current token price multiplied by the relevant supply measure. It is not cash held by the project.
Minimum received — The lowest output a quoted transaction will accept before refusing to settle.
Price impact — The expected price movement caused by your own order.
Same-block provenance — The block stamp attached when the current holder receives tokens. A curve sell in that block is rejected; this is a speed bump, not bot identification.
Slippage tolerance — The additional movement you permit while a transaction is settling.
Time-weighted average price (TWAP) — A price reference built from observations across a period. Specific internal paths require fresh, sufficient history; the reference does not guarantee a fair market outcome.
Unrealised P&L — Estimated profit or loss on an open holding before it is sold.
Verified link — A link for which Orbit confirmed control of the destination account or domain, not the truth of every claim published there.
Watchlist — Coins saved for monitoring without buying them.

Read the lifecycle and fee reference pages when a term changes the meaning of a money action. A short definition cannot replace the stage, route or availability detail around it.
Common questions
Which identifier distinguishes two coins with the same name or ticker?
Use the contract address. Presentation can look similar and tickers need not be unique. Understand what you are looking at shows where that identifier fits among the other evidence.
Does accrued mean I can withdraw or claim the amount?
No. It means the amount has been recorded as earned. Distribution and claim availability are separate actions and product controls; Understand where the money goes follows that boundary.
Can a verified link prove a project's claims?
No. It proves control of an eligible destination, not the truth of everything published there. Keep it separate from contract, lifecycle, liquidity and creator risk.
