Arbitrum saw investment and transactions of $10,000 or more ramp up.

Revenue and TVL saw an increase.

The increased volume of network transactions has led to a remarkable expansion in the user base of Arbitrum. Recent reports from Nansen pointed to another possible driver of this expansion beyond the service’s apparent swiftness and low cost. How have the company’s income and Total Value Locked (TVL) been affected by the rise in transactions?

Arbitrum transactions pick up

Arbitrum is an optimistic rollup-based layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum that improves transaction throughput and lowers transaction fees. Its goal is to make Ethereum transactions faster and cheaper without compromising the network’s decentralization or security.

According to a post by Nansen, the L2 network has recently seen unprecedented levels of investment and the highest-ever percentage of transactions of $10,000 or more. Moreover, users’ speculation of an AirDrop from the network caused an enormous inflow.

Since Arbitrum’s inception, there have been rumors regarding the impending release of its native token. There is also speculation that, upon debut, the token will be “AirDropped” to users already connected to the network. Cryptocurrency projects often utilize AirDrops as a kind of advertising, handing out free tokens or currencies to a big audience.
