What is Arbitrum?
Arbitrum is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum that aims to improve the speed and efficiency of transactions on the Ethereum network. It is built on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Therefore, developers can use Solidity to build and deploy smart contracts on Arbitrum.
Arbitrum uses an optimistic rollup architecture. It assumes that transactions are valid and executes them off-chain. If there is a dispute over the validity of a transaction, it can be resolved on-chain through a dispute resolution process. This approach allows for faster and cheaper transactions than the traditional Ethereum network, while still maintaining the security and decentralization of the Ethereum blockchain.
Arbitrum is developed by Offchain Labs, a company founded in 2019 by a team of researchers from Princeton University. It has gained popularity among developers due to its ease of use and compatibility with existing Ethereum tools and infrastructure.
Why is Arbitrum so Popular?
Arbitrum has become so popular because it offers a solution to the scalability issues on the Ethereum network. As the popularity of decentralized applications (dApps) grows, the Ethereum network became congested. Ultimately, it leads to slower transaction times and higher fees. Arbitrum’s optimistic rollup architecture offers a way to increase the speed and efficiency of transactions. Furthermore, it still maintains the security and decentralization of the Ethereum blockchain.
Another reason for Arbitrum’s popularity is its ease of use and compatibility with existing Ethereum tools and infrastructure. Developers can use Solidity to build and deploy smart contracts on Arbitrum. Meaning, they can use the same tools and programming languages that they are already familiar with. This makes it easier and faster for developers to build and deploy dApps on Arbitrum, compared to other Layer 2 scaling solutions.
Arbitrum also offers a lower barrier to entry for users. Users do not need to learn new tools or technologies in order to use dApps on the platform. This makes it more accessible to a wider range of users, which could lead to increased adoption and usage of dApps on the Arbitrum network.
ARB Airdrops and the Reasons for it
Prior to 2023, Arbitrum does not have its own native. However, all is about to change. March 23, 2023, marks the day of their token release along with the token airdrops. With the new token release, this would mean that Arbitrum will begin its transition to a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO). Soon, token holders will be able to vote and make decisions regarding all the Arbitrum has to offer.
ARB will have a total supply of 10 billion. The community will control 56% of those tokens. The upcoming airdrop will grant 11.5% of the total supply to eligible Arbitrum users. Meanwhile, DAOs operating within the Arbitrum ecosystem received 1.1%. The remaining tokens will go to a treasury controlled by the new Arbitrum DAO. This will allow ARB holders to decide how to disburse the funds. The remaining 44% of ARB’s circulation will be distributed to investors and employees of Offchain Labs, the development firm behind Arbitrum, subject to lock-up periods and vesting schedules.
