The Arbitrum ecosystem: Explained
Arbitrum is a Layer 2 scaling solution designed to enhance the capabilities of Ethereum, a popular blockchain platform known for its smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). Ethereum, while powerful, is often hindered by limitations such as high transaction fees (“gas fees”) and slow transaction processing times. Layer 2 solutions like Arbitrum aim to resolve these issues by operating on top of Ethereum’s core blockchain (Layer 1) to accelerate transactions, reduce costs, and improve the overall user experience.
The Arbitrum ecosystem utilizes a unique technique called “Optimistic Rollups” to achieve this goal. It combines the security of the Ethereum blockchain with the efficiency of off-chain computation. Instead of executing each transaction individually, Optimistic Rollups bundle multiple transactions together off-chain and submit a fraction of the data to the Ethereum mainnet, accompanied by cryptographic proof.
Developers can also benefit from Arbitrum as it supports Ethereum’s native programming language, Solidity, making it easier for them to build and deploy scalable dApps on the platform without significant modifications.
