# Inspiration

Decentralized exchange (DEX) is one of the essential major parts of the DeFi space, working under smart contract and blockchain technology and systems. However, many users are heavily encountering difficulty in using automatic market makers (AMMs), especially new users. We aim to solve those issues by building a decentralized exchange that is more user-friendly and robust than the current model. We truly believe that this will make it easier for people to use automatic market makers, and improve the overall decentralized exchange experience.

Furthermore, the atomic orbital is analogous to Orbit in that it is a mathematical function describing the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. This function can be used to calculate the probability of finding any electron of an atom in any specific region around the atom's Nucleus and hence it was the primary inspiration behind our logo.

Orbit protocol logo are made from an atomic orbitals simulation of an electron in a hydrogen atom at energy levels (4,2,2)
