September 18, 2025 – Velo Protocol today announced the development of Orbit Plus, a groundbreaking Super App designed to transform how users and enterprises interact with tokenized assets, stablecoins, and the transfer of real-world value. Orbit Plus represents a major milestone in Velo’s roadmap, built in collaboration with EVOLVE and Lightnet Group, to power the next generation of Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization and settlement.
Powering the RWA tokenization ecosystem
Orbit Plus serves as the front door to a fast-growing RWA ecosystem co-developed by EVOLVE, Velo, and Lightnet. Together, the three are working to bring traditionally illiquid assets—such as real estate, undervalued financial instruments, and sustainable infrastructure (including green energy and two-wheel EV charging networks)on-chain.
The initiative begins in Southeast Asia’s Belt and Road corridors, with the goal of unlocking liquidity for assets long out of reach for global investors.
Seamless PayFi integration
Orbit Plus will integrate directly with Velo’s PayFi network, enabling real-time settlements and frictionless conversions between tokenized RWAs, stablecoins, and fiat currencies. This innovation allows enterprises, institutional partners, and retail users to move value across ecosystems without barriers.
Cross-border payment solutions
Leveraging Lightnet’s licensed global payment infrastructure and digital wallet technology, Orbit Plus will also support:
Large-volume, low-cost cross-border settlements
OTC trading of RWAs
Scalable financial services for commerce and supply chains across ASEAN markets
This makes tokenized assets not just an investment class, but also usable in real-world finance and trade.
Enhanced liquidity and market efficiency
By bridging tokenized assets with stablecoins and regulated settlement rails, Orbit Plus increases transparency, capital accessibility, and market efficiency—especially across fast-growing Belt and Road economies.
Bridging TradFi and DeFi
Orbit Plus embodies Velo’s mission to bridge traditional finance (TradFi) with decentralized finance (DeFi). The Super App combines compliant financial infrastructure with intuitive technology, creating a unified gateway for the global RWA economy while promoting financial inclusion for both retail and institutional users.
