Arbitrum (ARB) is a token associated with the Arbitrum network, which is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum. The network was created by Offchain Labs and was designed to address the scalability issues faced by Ethereum.
ARB is a DAO (Decentralised Autonomous Organization) token, which means that it gives holders a say in the governance of the Arbitrum network. The token was launched in March 2023 and holders of the token can vote on proposals and changes to the network, which helps ensure that the community's interests are represented.
One of the key features of the Arbitrum network is its fast transaction processing times, which are significantly faster than those of the Ethereum network. This is because the network uses a technique called optimistic rollups, which allows it to process a large number of transactions off-chain before submitting them to the Ethereum network. This results in lower fees and faster transaction time. eToro investors can hold ARB tokens by buying and selling them on the eToro trading platform.
