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.”

With this latest development, Orca Protocol delivers a sustainable revenue model that allows long-term investors to earn profits within the Solana ecosystem.
