Onchain derivatives are starting to close the performance gap with centralized exchanges — and infrastructure is the reason.
—
This week, Orbs expanded its onchain derivatives stack to Sei Network through a new integration with Gryps, bringing Perpetual Hub Ultra to the high-speed trading network.
The result: a fully managed, professional-grade perpetual futures stack on Sei, designed for execution certainty, capital efficiency, and deterministic risk — without requiring teams to build complex backend infrastructure from scratch.

A Turnkey Perps Stack, Built for Professionals
Perpetual Hub Ultra delivers the full perpetuals lifecycle in a modular framework, including:
Liquidity aggregation
Hedging and liquidation logic
Oracle coordination
Professional trading interfaces
Powered by Orbs’ Layer-3 execution layer and Symmio’s smart contract system, the infrastructure allows Gryps to support customizable leverage, aggregate deep liquidity, and optimize execution — even during periods of high volatility.
Rather than functioning as a general-purpose DeFi app, Gryps is built specifically for perpetual futures trading, with a focus on predictable execution and capital efficiency. Through Orbs’ intent-based execution model, trades are coordinated offchain and settled onchain, improving fill quality while preserving decentralization.

Bringing Intent-Based Trading to Perpetual Futures
Intent-based trading has already reshaped onchain spot markets. Perpetual Hub Ultra extends that same model to perps.
The “Ultra” version enables platforms like Gryps to route liquidity from both onchain and offchain sources — including major centralized exchanges — while maintaining decentralized settlement and execution. This hybrid approach allows decentralized venues to compete on performance without compromising on transparency or custody.
As Ran Hammer, Chief Business Officer at Orbs, explained:
This integration shows how advanced onchain derivatives infrastructure can meet the operational requirements of professional traders. Gryps can deliver institutional-grade perpetuals on Sei using a modular, turnkey stack that prioritizes execution quality and predictable risk.

Why This Matters for Sei and Onchain Perps
Sei has positioned itself as a chain optimized for high-performance trading. The addition of Perpetual Hub Ultra via Gryps reinforces that direction, giving the ecosystem access to a derivatives stack capable of handling professional flow.
For Orbs, the deployment builds on earlier Perpetual Hub integrations already live across multiple decentralized trading venues — further establishing the protocol as infrastructure for onchain perps, not just tooling.
