Ethereum rollup solution Arbitrum grows in popularity
Developed by OffChain Labs, Arbitrum is a second-layer scalability solution built on top of Ethereum (ETH). Its main purpose is to “roll up” transactions into data sets, which are smaller in size, and verify transactions by broadcasting rollups to the mainnet.
Not too long ago Arbitrum went through the Nitro upgrade, which resulted in boosted speed and throughput, additional interoperability, lower costs, etc.
New changes and upgrades have brought heaps of new users to Arbitrum. That is to say, the network has always stated that its biggest goal is to minimize any possible limitations between developers and blockchain technology.
Could Arbitrum launch a token soon?
Arbitrum’s main market competitors, such as Optimism, have already come out with native tokens. However, the rollup solution team did not make any recent announcements regarding the much-anticipated token.
