Layer 2

Arbitrum

About Portfolio

Arbitrum (ARB) is the governance token of Arbitrum, a leading Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum built on optimistic rollup technology. It enables faster and cheaper transactions while inheriting Ethereum’s security guarantees. ARB governs the protocol through the decentralized Arbitrum DAO.

Governance & Token Utility

The ARB token grants holders voting rights over protocol upgrades, treasury spending, Security Council elections, and other governance proposals. It can be delegated for staking and governance participation, and is commonly integrated into DeFi protocols for lending, liquidity, and incentives.
