New Listing for Arbitrum (ARB)

We are excited to announce that Arbitrum (ARB) has been added to the CoinPort Exchange. Arbitrum is the native cryptocurrency of a layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum, designed to enhance transaction speed and reduce costs while maintaining security.

What is Arbitrum (ARB)?

Arbitrum (ARB) is the governance token of the Arbitrum ecosystem, a layer-2 (L2) scaling solution for the Ethereum blockchain developed by Offchain Labs. Launched in 2021, Arbitrum uses Optimistic Rollup technology to process transactions off-chain while leveraging Ethereum’s security for final settlement, enabling faster transactions and lower gas fees compared to Ethereum’s mainnet. The platform supports a wide range of decentralized applications (dApps), including decentralized finance (DeFi), gaming, and NFTs, by providing a scalable and Ethereum-compatible environment.

The ARB token powers the Arbitrum Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), allowing holders to vote on protocol upgrades, fee structures, and ecosystem development through the Arbitrum Governance framework. It also supports staking for validators who secure the network and maintain transaction integrity. Arbitrum’s flagship product, Arbitrum One, is its primary L2 chain, complemented by Arbitrum Nova, which is optimized for high-throughput, low-cost applications like gaming. The ecosystem benefits from Ethereum’s robust security while offering near-instant transaction finality and compatibility with Ethereum’s smart contracts. Arbitrum has a maximum supply of 10 billion ARB tokens, with a circulating supply of approximately 4.2 billion.
