Orion Protocol, which is chain-agnostic, says that it will “provide a decentralized gateway to the entire digital asset market – aggregating liquidity across decentralized and centralized crypto exchanges and swap platforms in one, decentralized platform.”
As for why it had chosen to build on top of Cardano’s infrastructure, its blog post had this to say:
