About Arbitrum

Next generation layer 2 for Ethereum dApps. Use your favorite tools and scale your dApp at the lowest cost. An aggregator plays the same role that a node plays in Ethereum. Client software can do remote procedure calls (RPCs) to an aggregator, using the standard API, to interact with an Arbitrum chain. The aggregator will then make calls to the EthBridge and produce transaction results to the client, just as an Ethereum node would. Most clients will use an aggregator to submit their transactions to an Arbitrum chain, although this is not required. There is no limit on how many aggregators can exist, nor on who can be an aggregator. To improve efficiency, aggregators will usually package together multiple client transactions into a single message to be submitted to the Arbitrum chain. Arbitrum also supports a privileged Sequencer that can order transactions and give low latency transaction receipts.

Avalanche
Avalanche
Build on Avalanche. Build without limits. Avalanche is an open, programmable platform for decentralized finance applications. Launch Ethereum dapps that confirm transactions instantly and process thousands of transactions per second, far beyond any decentralized blockchain platform today. Deploy blockchains that fit your own application needs. Build your own virtual machine and dictate exactly how the blockchain should operate. Stake, or lock up, your AVAX to help process transactions and further secure the platform–providing security guarantees well-above the 51% standard. You probably have the hardware required to join the platform. Avalanche is Solidity-compatible. All of your favorite tools like Remix, Truffle, and Tenderly work out of the box. Deploying smart contracts on Avalanche cost just a tenth of what they cost on Ethereum. High gas fees, front-running, and other adverse effects of slow smart contract blockchains are now a thing of the past.

Truebit
Truebit
Truebit is a blockchain enhancement which enables smart contracts to securely perform complex computations in standard programming languages at reduced gas costs. While smart contracts can perform small computations correctly, large computation tasks pose security risks for blockchains. Truebit counteracts this shortcoming via a trustless, retrofitting oracle which correctly performs computational tasks. Any smart contract can issue a computation task to this oracle in the form of WebAssembly bytecode, while anonymous “miners” receive rewards for correctly solving the task. The oracle’s protocol guarantees correctness in two layers: a unanimous consensus layer where anyone can object to faulty solutions, and an on-chain mechanism which incentivizes participation and ensures fair remuneration. These components formally manifest themselves through a combination of novel, off-chain architecture and on-chain smart contracts.

zkSync
zkSync
zkSync is Ethereum’s most user-centric ZK rollup. Unlike any other scaling approach, ZK rollup has no upper bound on the value it can securely handle in L2. Unlike optimistic rollups, all assets can be moved capital-efficiently and fast between ZK rollup and L1. zkSync has the lowest real tx costs across all existing and planned rollups. zkSync also supports meta-transactions, instant confirmations with economic finality, low-cost privacy, and more. Ease and fun of development are at the core of zkSync design. Integrate payments and atomic swaps in a few lines of code. Develop type-safe, functional style smart contracts on Zinc: a Rust-based framework. Deploy your existing EVM codebase with minimum modifications.

Blast
Blast
The only Ethereum L2 with native yield for ETH and stablecoins. Blast yield comes from ETH staking and RWA protocols. The yield from these decentralized protocols is passed back to Blast users automatically. The default interest rate on other L2s is 0%. Our goal as contributors is to grow the on-chain economy with the highest-yield L2 possible. Community members who join our mission will have the opportunity to earn the Blast Airdrop. Blast only became possible this year following Ethereum's Shanghai upgrade. ETH yield from L1 staking, initially Lido, is automatically transferred to users via rebasing ETH on the L2.

    "Deliberately misleading scammers"

    Posted 2023-04-15

    Pros: Can't think of any sorry... errr they have a cool logo? And they generated lots of hype with their airdrop (but then I read news they stole the token without waiting for the DAO vote?)..

    Cons: There bridge deliberately misleads you into bridging unsupported assets so they can lock up your tokens for 7 days for their benefit and get more transactions and gas fees on their blockchain.

    I checked their official bridge https://bridge.arbitrum.io/ and it clearly allowed me to bridge agEUR as the token appeared in their drop down list.

    However, after paying high gas fees, they sent me the WRONG token.

    I contacted their support initially on Discord who are SUPER RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL and UNFRIENDLY and told me to raise a ticket on https://bridge.arbitrum.io/

    I raised a ticket but again the support basically called me an idiot and were SUPER RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL and UNFRIENDLY and would not help.

    They kept closing my ticket so I re-opened it as my issue was not resolved - their bridge which shows agEUR in their list of bridgeable tokens had sent me a worthless token on Arbitrum blockchain.

    They simply banned my account.

    Overall: Terrible.

    Arbitrum is the WORST blockchain support and bridge I have ever used and I consider them a bunch of scammers.
