Orca Protocol performs buybacks with $ORCA tokens and increases investor earnings through the xORCA staking system. This step boosts protocol revenues and allows long-term investors to earn profits directly. Orca thus strengthens its community-focused growth within the Solana ecosystem.
Strategic Buyback Step
The announcement on September 29, 2025, marked a new era for Orca Protocol’s revenue model. The protocol uses 20% of the fees generated from Whirlpool pools to purchase $ORCA on the open market. This mechanism continues the token burn and buyback strategy implemented in April 2025.
This strategy reduces circulating supply, stabilizes prices, and enhances long-term investor confidence. The Orca team aims to align user incentives directly with protocol performance.
Revenue Sharing with xORCA
With the new xORCA, $ORCA holders earn profits directly from protocol revenues. Users can gain yield simply by holding tokens instead of farming or claiming airdrops. The system offers a simple and tax-efficient alternative.
xORCA can be staked 1:1 with $ORCA. Users who lock their tokens before October 1 can participate advantageously before the liquidity pool is seeded. The Orca team emphasizes sustainability: “Revenue sharing comes directly from trader fees.”

Orca DAO’s Long-Term Plan
Throughout 2025, Orca DAO took steps to strengthen its token economy. After the 25% token burn and $10 million buyback in April, the price increased by 76.8%. In August, Orca approved a 24-month buyback plan with a budget of 55,000 SOL and 400,000 USDC.
With this latest development, Orca Protocol delivers a sustainable revenue model that allows long-term investors to earn profits within the Solana ecosystem.
