Lido's Arbitrum Proposal Splits Community Over Grant Size, Centralization Concerns

A Lido DAO proposal to secure a 5 million ARB grant worth just over $4 million has been met with hefty opposition from the Arbitrum community. The primary concerns? The grant’s size and ongoing concerns of Lido’s purported centralization. In September, the Arbitrum Foundation introduced its Short-Term Incentive Program (STIP) to distribute 50,000,000 ARB worth $41.2 million and entice projects to launch on the speedy layer-2. Arbitrum is a layer-2 scaling solution built atop the Ethereum network...

You Can Now Trade Bitcoin Mining Hashpower on Arbitrum

A new Arbitrum protocol makes it possible to directly mine new Bitcoin (BTC) without having to run your own expensive ASIC machines.

Ethereum Layer-2 Arbitrum Sees Ongoing ‘Influx’ of New Users After ARB Airdrop: Nansen

Arbitrum, an Ethereum rollup with assets worth $5.77 billion bridged to it, continued to see increased growth last quarter. The activity comes after a highly anticipated airdrop in March this year. The layer-2 blockchain witnessed strong activity based on the “consistently higher” transaction count and “influx of new participants,” according to a Nansen report shared with Decrypt. Notably, the blockchain has supported more activity since the airdrop in March. Industry Still Isn’t Close to Solvin...

From Art Blocks to Block Art: Snowfro Gets Physical With 'Heart + Craft'

Nearly a decade ago, Art Blocks founder Erick “snowfro” Calderon began 3D-printing cubes, painting them, and assembling them into hearts that he placed in public spaces. Now, that block art that preceded Art Blocks has inspired a generative art drop that in turn will let collectors assemble their own physical renditions if they see fit. Launching on August 24 via the recently launched Prohibition NFT art platform—which is built on top of the Art Blocks Engine tech suite—“Heart + Craft” is a coll...

Gaming Dominates On-Chain Transactions in April as Arbitrum Users Surge

In a report examining April market data, 38% of all crypto transactions were related to gaming—despite seeing 10% fewer daily active wallets (roughly 672,000) compared to the previous month. DappRadar blamed the ongoing “meme token craze” for the user dropoff, citing PEPE’s billion-dollar market cap that recently ballooned to $1.7 billion before crashing by 63%. It also partia...
