Lido Staked Ether price

Recently, the well-known research institution Messari published a lengthy article that thoroughly dissects the development path of Arbitrum. The content is very detailed and can be considered the best research report on ARB, bar none. In this report, you will see ARB's ambitions as a veteran L2, as well as the efforts they are making to achieve "Arbitrum Everywhere" @arbitrum_cn. Due to the length of the full text, this post extracts some key points for reference: 1⃣ ARB's Ambition For a long time, ARB has been viewed as Ethereum's little brother, similar to other L2s. In fact, ARB has evolved beyond being a supporting role in the Ethereum ecosystem and aims to establish a "Digital Sovereign Nation" through innovations in products, technology, and governance, achieving "Arbitrum Everywhere." Especially since 2025, @arbitrum has embarked on a new round of development, focusing on building a vibrant on-chain economy and creating a model for how decentralized protocols can achieve long-term economic prosperity. Perhaps you may not feel it much now, but in the future, ARB could be everywhere. 2⃣ Refusing to Lie Flat The L2 track once had four kings, but what about now? Some have completely given up, some are hoarding coins, while only ARB continues to build diligently. To date, Arbitrum has developed into a comprehensive multi-product technology platform: ✅ Arbitrum One has become one of the most active and liquid networks. Arbitrum is known for Arbitrum One, whose expertise comes from its focus on DeFi, gathering blue-chip DeFi protocols like Aave, Uniswap, and Compound, while also attracting a large number of emerging DeFi protocols. From the beginning of the year to now, Arbitrum One's on-chain GDP is $214.9 million, with a TVL of $2.59 billion and a stablecoin supply of $6.6 billion, the highest among all L2s. ✅ Arbitrum Orbit has become one of the largest chain-launching platforms. Arbitrum Orbit allows anyone to launch their own Arbitrum Chains based on the ARB architecture, emphasizing customization and flexibility. Arbitrum Chains can settle on L1s like Ethereum as L2s or settle on L2s like Arbitrum One as L3s. As of May 31, the Arbitrum Orbit ecosystem includes 48 Arbitrum Chains that have launched on the mainnet, with another 38 in testing or development, accumulating over 1.1 million weekly active addresses, a total locked value of $13.7 billion, and a total transaction volume of 1.89 billion, accounting for 31.8% of all L2 transactions. 3⃣ Continuous Innovation For any project that has issued tokens, the difficulty of continuous innovation based on existing business is very high. However, ARB has achieved this. Technologically, Arbitrum has launched upgraded versions like Stylus, BoLD, and Timeboost, enabling developers to deploy specially built Rollup systems. Economically, ArbitrumDAO funds ecosystem investment plans with continuously growing protocol revenue and supports economic experimental zones through initiatives like the Stable Financial Donation Program (STEP) and Arbitrum Gaming Ventures (AGV), bringing new revenue sources to the entire ecosystem and creating a self-reinforcing cycle of revenue, investment, and growth. 4⃣ Continuous Expansion Taking RWA as an example, more and more traditional financial institutions are choosing to deploy products on ARB, such as the renowned BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, and WisdomTree. The entry of these institutions not only brings incremental funds to the Arb ecosystem but also provides better liquidity to the entire Web3. Attracting them is a responsibility that the L2 king ARB cannot shirk. 5⃣ Growth Flywheel The core of Arbitrum's transformation into a Digital Sovereign Nation lies in building a growth flywheel that returns value to its members and stakeholders. Assets in the ArbitrumDAO treasury are typically deployed through ecosystem investment plans like DRIP, STIP, and LTIP to promote Arbitrum's growth. Economic experimental zones like STEP and AGV create new revenue sources that, combined with core protocol revenue, drive the flywheel together. In summary, Arbitrum has the foundation of a veteran L2, occupying a first-mover advantage, while also being able to innovate and maintain vitality. We look forward to the early realization of ARB's Digital Sovereign Nation.
