Timeboost and Pectra already leveled up Arbitrum’s UX and smart wallet infra!
Now @arbitrum just hit an ATH of $300M tokenized assets!
With real-world assets gaining traction, will we see Arbitrum become the top destination for onchain RWAs?
And what about the potential of AI x RWA protocols building here?
Curious how everyone’s positioning for this new wave.
Let’s chart it out below. 👇
Also check out this previous post that we have for @arbitrum
The next era of L2s won’t be won on speed alone.
@arbitrum is scaling something deeper:
- Fairness
- UX
- Creator economics
Timeboost and Pectra changed the game as well, enhancing UX, crushing MEV issues, and making the chain smarter for everyone.
Here’s why these upgrades still matter, and what they unlock next. 👇
1. Timeboost (April 18)
A market-based priority system for block space:
- Cuts front-running and congestion
- Disincentivizes MEV bots
- Generates on-chain revenue
It’s real blockspace monetization, without sacrificing decentralization.
2. Pectra Upgrade (June 18)
Brings Account Abstraction to the forefront:
- Smart wallets
- Batched transactions
- Gas fees in any token
User experience just leveled up.
It’s now easier than ever to onboard new users, especially on mobile and DeFi apps.
Together, these upgrades enable:
- Smoother UX for mass adoption
- Smarter infra for modular app builders
- Sustainable economics for the Arbitrum ecosystem
Now what’s next?
- Stronger MEV resistance
- Lower-cost composable DeFi
- Institutional-grade infra (RWA, TradFi primitives)
And here’s where it gets even more interesting:
@yapyo_arb is building the Mindshare Flywheel, an attention market powered by buybacks.
- Monetize protocol influence
- Reward creators through recurring value flow
- Align signal and capital in public
📅 And don’t forget:
- July 2025: Arbitrum Chains narrative kicks off
- August 2025: Arbitrum AI takes center stage
The momentum is just getting started.
