what's positively highlighted here 👇
the increase and consistent perp DEX volume = good sign of market capture with sustained user interest in $ARB protocols
as @arbitrum continues to expand its reach, onboarding new protocols (e.g. via DRIP), supporting popular tradfi institutions as a app-building rail, we're likely to see further growth in ecosystem app activities
it's shaping up to be a wonderful flywheel that can attractively incentivise users and builders alike
ARBITRUM EVERYWHERE
.@arbitrum's steady-state growth today is heavily driven by its perps landscape since inception.
Over the years, it has matured with a robust diversity of markets + innovative designs.
With $837B+ in cumulative volume, this is one of the most active & liquid chains for on-chain trading.
Avg. weekly volumes have grown 5x over the last two years (From ~$1B/week (2022–2023) → consistently >$5B/week since Q3 2024)
As the ecosystem evolves, Arbitrum is now setting the stage for the next wave of growth:
Institutional-grade + RWA-related markets → expanding distribution beyond DeFi
This marks a pivotal structural shift in terms of where adoption is heading towards into the future.
Arbitrum Everywhere🫡
