Overview of Orchid
Blockchain
Mine
Nutrients for epiphytic orchids mainly come from mineral dust, organic detritus, animal droppings and other substances collecting among on their supporting surfaces.The cells of the root epidermis grow at a right angle to the axis of the root to allow them to get a firm grasp on their support.
Network
Regular payments to providers occur off-chain, allowing Orchid to avoid problems with congestion and gas fees on the Ethereum network.
Support
In 2015, a phylogenetic study[14] showed strong statistical support for the following topology of the orchid tree, using 9 kb of plastid and nuclear DNA from 7 genes, a topology that was confirmed by a phylogenomic study in the same year.[15]
Transactions
As developers note, involving third parties in token purchases to use Orchid — for example, major exchanges — could ultimately lead to an attacker learning a user’s identity by tracing transactions to their exchange wallet.Given that very little information is contained in the platform’s smart contracts used for payments, the weak links in the chain mostly lie with the user.
Do Orchids make good gifts?
Orchids make a great gift.They are sophisticated and simple, and they last a long time if cared for correctly.At From You Flowers you are able to send orchids online to anyone.Orchids are a gift that anyone would appreciate, and can be given as a thank you or as a celebration.

How do I water my orchid?
Avoid overwatering which leads to the demise of many more orchids than underwatering.Constant wetness will cause the roots to rot, which leaves the plant without a means for taking up nourishment which then causes the leaves to droop and will eventually kill the plant.
How do I water my orchid?

How is my privacy protected and genetic data kept safe?
Your privacy is our top priority.We handle sensitive, personal information and biological samples and we don’t take that responsibility lightly.
How Is the Orchid Network Secured?
OXT is an ERC-20 standard token on Ethereum, and security risks revolve mainly around an attacker’s ability to harvest user data from Orchid itself.
How Long Do Orchids Live?
Orchids can live for years and even decades with the proper care.An orchid’s lifecycle consists of an initial bloom (usually in fall), a dormant period and a rebloom.If the orchid is cared, for it then repeats the dormant and rebloom stages every few months.
How Many Orchid (OXT) Coins Are There In Circulation?
OXT has a supply of 1,000,000,000 (1 billion) units.There is no inflation, but the possibility for deflation is maintained by possible token burns of OXT as part of regular network function.
How Much Light Do Orchids Need?
From a plant's perspective, houses usually have dim light, so you'll usually have better luck with orchid varieties that tolerate low light levels.East-facing windowsills are great spots for orchids; an unscreened south-facing window can be a little too bright and hot, but a sheer curtain can add just the right amount of filtering.You can also set the orchid back from the window by a few feet so it's not constantly in strong indirect light.
Now That I Have This Plant, What Do I Do With It?
This section is for the Orchid Beginner.See answers to the most popular orchid questions further down on this page.
What actions can I take based on the information?
Knowing your genetic predispositions ahead of time helps you optimize your family’s health.
What can Orchid's Couple Report tell me?
Our genetic test tells you how you and your partner’s genetics can impact your future children’s health.We quantify genetic risk for breast cancer, prostate cancer, heart disease, atrial fibrillation, stroke, type 2 diabetes, type 1 diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, schizophrenia and Alzheimer's.Your Couple Report will tell you if your future child’s genetic risk is expected to be normal or elevated.Your results also include individual reports for each partner — where you can discover your genetic risks for these conditions to help you take action and optimize your own health.Anyone who is thinking of starting or growing their family can benefit from being aware of genetic risks early.Our goal is to help you prepare and to be proactive about your family’s health.
What Is Orchid (OXT)?
Orchid (OXT) is the native token of Orchid, a cryptocurrency-powered virtual private network (VPN).
What is the best orchid for growing in the home?
One of the most widely available orchids of the mass market types is also the best for the home – the phalaenopsis or moth orchid which will grow easily under the same conditions enjoyed by African Violets.
What is the best orchid for growing in the home?
Phalaenopsis will grow easily under average household conditions.
What is the best potting media?
A fresh, fast-draining, but water-retentive medium is essential to the healthy root system necessary for good growth.
What is the difference between Orchid's Couple Report and other genetic tests?
Orchid is the only physician-approved, advanced preconception screening for couples to take from home.
What is the science behind Orchid?
Orchid sequences and analyzes 6 billion data points across the genome of you and your partner from your saliva samples.Based on you and your partner’s genetic information alone, we’re able to statistically model the range of possibilities for your future child’s genome.?Once we’ve modeled how you and your partner’s DNA can realistically combine, we quantify what your future child’s genetic risks can be.For each condition, this is done by comparing the genetic makeup of hundreds of thousands of individuals diagnosed with the conditions we screen for (“cases”) with individuals without diseases (“controls”).
What Makes Orchid Unique?
The main idea behind Orchid is the use of blockchain technology to enhance the existing VPN experience.
What should I look for when I buy an Orchid?
Many consumers, both retail and retailer, find themselves in a position today of having to make purchase- oriented decisions about an entirely new — to them, at least — class of plants: orchids.
What type of orchids are there?
Orchids are a flowers with a diverse plant family, with about 800 genera and some 28,000 individual species.There are about 22 different kinds of orchids that are commonly used as house plants.The different type of orchids are: Miltonia, Psychopsis, Cattleya, Phalaenopsis, Cymbidium, Brassia, Vanda, Maxillaria, Encyclia, Phaius, Oncidium, Paphiopedilum, Ludisia, Epidendrum Odontoglossum, Phragmipedium, Zygopetalum, Paphiopedilum, Catasetum, Lycaste, Vanilla, Brassavola.
What’s growing on the flower stem?
A plantlet (called a keiki (kay-kee), the Hawaiian word for baby) will sometimes grow on a flower spike (called an “inflorescence”).
What’s wrong with my orchid?
There are many reasons why buds fall off before flowering…
When should I repot?
Orchid plants need repotting for one or a combination of two main factors: Potting mix breaks down, often evidenced by dead roots, or the plant outgrowing the container.
Where Can You Buy Orchid (OXT)?
OXT is freely tradeable on major exchanges such as Binance, Kraken and Coinbase Pro, with cryptocurrency, stablecoin and fiat pairs available.
Where do I cut the spike?
Of all of the more commonly available orchids, only Phalaenopsis (the moth orchid) will re-bloom from its old spike.Phalaenopsis will generally re-bloom given a little extra care.
Where in the house can I grow my orchid?
South and east-facing windows work best for orchids.West_windows can be too hot in the afternoon and north-facing ones are usually too dark.
Where to get OXT?
When we learn of new listings, they will be publicly announced.If you see OXT being traded on an exchange that isn’t listed here, please use the contact form to let us know, so that it can be added to our list.
Who Are the Founders of Orchid?
Orchid’s four co-founders come from the blockchain and financial spheres.They are Dr.Steven Waterhouse as CEO, Jay Freeman, Brian J.Fox and Gustav Simonsson.
Why are my orchid’s leaves wrinkled and leathery?
Shriveled leaves indicate a lack of water to plant tissue.The next step is to determine why the plant is not getting sufficient water.
Why won’t my orchid re-bloom?
Insufficient light is the most common cause of failure to re-bloom your orchid.Leaf color indicates if the amount of light is adequate.
Will the results of this test discourage me from having kids?
No, quite the opposite.Knowing your genetic risks helps you go into pregnancy better prepared and informed on what actions can be taken to mitigate those risks.Some couples may tailor their family’s diet, fitness and preventative screening; others may consider electing for follow-up embryo screening in the IVF setting.Our goal is to help every couple who wants to start or grow their family to conceive confidently and proactively monitor their future child’s health.
