Let’s look at an example around how gas prices work in DeFi. You want to migrate your staked ETH from Protocol A on Ethereum to Protocol B on Polygon.

You need to unstake, approve the bridge contract, bridge to Polygon, swap if needed, approve the new protocol and stake again. Six separate transactions. Around $45 in total gas. Two to three hours of babysitting each step.

And if gas prices spike while you're halfway through? You're stuck. You've already paid $20 in gas for the first two steps. Do you continue at higher prices or abandon and lose what you've spent?

This is the real gas problem in DeFi. Not just that fees are high, but that complex operations require multiple transactions, each with its own gas cost and each dependent on you being available to sign at the right moment.

Most interfaces make you handle each step separately. Check gas. Sign. Wait for confirmation. Check gas again for the next step. Sign again. Repeat six times.

You discover the bridge fee halfway through. Or realize you need different tokens for gas on the destination chain. Or find out there's an extra approval step you didn't know about.

What actually helps

Seeing the entire sequence upfront. Knowing total costs across all steps before you start. Understanding exactly what you're committing to, so you can decide if it's worth it.

You still pay the same network gas (nobody can change that). Gas can still spike mid-sequence. But you know the complete path and total commitment before starting. No surprise steps. No hunting for the next interface. No discovering hidden requirements halfway through.

Orokai is working towards rmulti-step flows as one cohesive sequence with total costs shown upfront. You review the complete path, then authorize each step.

We guide. You decide.
