In recent months, the blockchain, the second layer (Layer 2) of the Ethereum network, has continued to grow in popularity and efficiency. But, unlike its neighbor Optimism, Arbitration still didn’t have a governance token.
A rather effective marketing argument, forcing users to use the network while waiting for a potential airdrop.

The price of the token is still unknown but from lots of informations were given to us.
10 billion tokens will be deployed with the following distribution:
- 42% will be distributed to the Treasury of Arbitrum
- 29% are reserved for Arbitrum Team and his advisors
- 17% for the Investors
- 11% for the Users
- 1% for the CAD either, part of the projects built on the network

Arbitrum has partnered with Nansen with the goal of rewarding its users based on 14 eligibility criteria. The more an investor fulfills the criteria, the more he is rewarded in the form of tokens $ARB. In addition to this, users who were active before the arrival ofArbitrum Nitro see their number of collected tokens doubled. In order to check your eligibility, go to the official website of the Arbitrum Foundation: https://arbitrum.foundation/

The token will serve as a governance lever for the network, with the aim of decentralizing decision-making power. Governance in the form of CAD highly valued in the DeFi ecosystem. programs of liquidity mining will also potentially be deployed in order to encourage users to use the network and contribute to the growth of Arbitrum.
