What is Arbitrum?
Arbitrum is an Ethereum L2 that improves speed, scalability, and lowers fees while inheriting Ethereum's security. It allows developers to run unmodified Ethereum smart contracts with much higher throughput. Key features include:
Optimistic rollups — Most computation happens off-chain, with data posted to Ethereum.
Strong adoption for DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and other dApps.
Multiple chains under the Arbitrum ecosystem (e.g., Arbitrum One, Nova, and Orbit for custom chains).86e95f
