How to Claim the Arbitrum Airdrop

What is Arbitrum?

Arbitrum is a layer 2 scaling solution for the Ethereum network designed to enhance the Ethereum network’s performance. The Ethereum network has been facing scalability issues due to its limited capacity to handle a large number of transactions. As a result, users have been experiencing high transaction fees and slower transaction processing times.

What is Arbitrum

The Arbitrum network addresses these issues by using Optimistic Rollups. This is a layer 2 scaling technology that allows for faster and cheaper transactions on the Ethereum network. Optimistic Rollups use a process called fraud proofing. This is where the transactions are processed off-chain and then validated on the Ethereum network. Making transaction processing more efficient without sacrificing the security or decentralization of the Ethereum network.

Arbitrum can also support the execution of smart contracts, making it a versatile scaling solution for the Ethereum network. Using Arbitrum, developers can create more complex and feature-rich decentralized applications (dApps). At the same time, without needing to worry about high gas fees and network congestion.

What is the Arbitrum Airdrop?

The Arbitrum airdrop is an event taking place on Thursday, March 23rd 2023, and it involves distributing ARB tokens to eligible users.

Airdrops are a common method for projects to distribute tokens to their communities, often as a reward for early support or engagement. In the case of the Arbitrum airdrop, 11.5% of the total supply of ARB tokens in circulation will be distributed.

A point system has been implemented to determine eligibility and the exact number of ARB tokens each user will receive. The Arbitrum snapshot date for this airdrop was February 6th, 2023. So, any users who used Arbitrum before this date may receive an airdrop. Users must have at least three points to qualify, and the maximum number of points is 15. Points can be earned by transferring funds to Arbitrum One and conducting transactions. The maximum number of ARB tokens a single address can receive is 10,200.

What are Arbitrum ARB Tokens?

Arbitrum ARB tokens are the native tokens of the Arbitrum platform. Unlike ETH, which is used to pay transaction fees on the Ethereum and Arbitrum networks, the ARB token will be solely utilised for governing the protocol.

The total circulation of ARB tokens will amount to 10 billion, with 56% controlled by the Arbitrum community. Eligible Arbitrum users will receive 11.5% of the total supply through an airdrop, while DAOs functioning within the Arbitrum ecosystem will obtain 1.1%. The rest will be allocated to a treasury the newly established Arbitrum DAO manages. Enabling ARB holders to participate in deciding the distribution of funds.

How is the ARB tokens distributed

The ARB token will function as a self-executing DAO, meaning approved proposals will be directly implemented on the blockchain. All investor and team tokens will be subject to a 4-year lockup, with the first unlock occurring after one year and subsequent unlocks happening monthly.

Arbitrum ARB tokens will be listed on the Binance exchange once the claim goes live for those looking to trade the ARB token.

Who is Eligible for the Arbitrum Airdrop?

Arbitrum has tried its best to include a wide variety of genuine Arbitrum users in the ARB airdrop, and users will have already needed to interact with the network.

Therefore, (like with any airdrop), this can’t be done retrospectively. This is because a snapshot of eligible users was taken on February 6th, 2023, at block height #58642080.

Eligible users include;

  • Bridged funds into Arbitrum One
  • Conducted transactions during two distinct months
  • Completed more than four transactions or interacted with more than four different smart contracts
  • Completed transactions exceeding the aggregate $10,000 in value
  • Deposited more than $50,000 of liquidity into Arbitrum
  • Bridged funds into Arbitrum Nova
  • Completed more than three transactions on Arbitrum Nova
