after missing Optimism airdrop I used many upcoming big chains, wallets builtin swap,big dex which was no token for retroactive airdrops. I spend a lot of fee on these chains. I used arbitrum,zksync,arbitrum nova, and some other. During this time Aptos airdrop has been given to testnet users and fortunately i also recieved 150 aptos token worth 1100$ that time. after aptos airdrop, many youtubers made video on retroactive airdrops and testsnet. i again started using these chains and added testnet task also to qualify for airdrops. i spend more than 150$ on these tasks. at once I felt that i am just wasting time and money but i did not give up and continued my worked. some days ago i was in need of money and I took a loan to cover my need. suddenly i saw the arbitrum news of Arb token and it makes me pleased that the community will also receive the airdrop. So here is my small story with arbitrum Airdrop

I used three wallets for arbitrum and all was eligible for the airdrop. Ma main wallet was eligible for 1875 token. One old wallet was eligible for 1250 tokens but unfortunately it phrase was stolen by hackers and third one eligible for 625 token which was a combined wallet with my cousin and brother.
First I claimed my main wallet tokens and sent it to bitget and bybit and made a profit of 2100$ which was the biggest airdrop ever for me. In the combined wallet I sent a token to arb contract mistakenly and its totally wasted. Hacked wallet tokens was claimed by hackers because they used a bot to claim airdrop and an automatic transfer to another wallet. I repay my loan and also 1500$ still available.

Arb supply is very big which will not let this token pump hard like other coins. What do you think about Arb Token? Is it a good option to take entry below 1$ or I use my fund in btc or Ethereum?

It’s currently circulating supply is 1.2B with current price of 1.3$ per token. This current price is still low considering Aptos reach 18$ per token with 1:10 supply ratio. Arbitrum is a widely use side chain. I believe there’s a huge potential for this token to pump more once this bull run confirmed and continue.

Congrats on your profit. It’s not bad to hold some of your airdrop tokens just in case the price pump hard.

Arbitrum can do better in next bull season for sure, but how much better? Those who bought Matic at 0.003$ will understand what I meant, buying Arbitrum at 1$ is kinda high and I won't expect anything than 10$ or 15x in a bull season, but in future arbitrum will drop a lot because the exact max supply is 10billion, the reason why it keeps this 1$+ is because only 1billion supply is out.

It's up to you to speculate, but I'm leaning towards the possibility that this market will become very large in the next bull cycle. And I think the current valuation of the whole Arbitrum is over $10b that's not a problem for me, maybe for a lot of people in the current context it's huge, I see that too but as mentioned that I believes that the market will be huge in the future so leading projects like Arbitrum will also receive significant growth.

don't use your funds in Bitcoin and Ethereum, because I think investing in Bitcoin and Ethereum is a better investment than ARB, so if you want to swap your Bitcoin and Ethereum to ARB, then I suggest you don't, but if you want to invest in ARB use a new money, then that's fine, but my advice is to wait until the price of ARB dump or when ARB is not hype anymore, so the price of ARB will definitely down and that is your chance to invest in ARB and hold for the long term.

Supply is high but inflation is just 2% per year.  So it isn't really that bad as it would not bring too much selling pressure once the rest of the supply is unlocked.

As for what I think, I def think it's undervalued at where the price is rn.  It should be up there at least at the top 15.

And anything below 1 USD for ARB is a fist pump, no brainer buy.  Don't think that's gonna happen tho.

Edit:  Typos

Boomber, Arb will give better returns to investors just like how solana rose up to 250$ per coin in 2021, and this Arb is just a better project in my opinion, if anyone is using Bitcoin and ETH to get some Arb they are still in the good hands, Arb will do very satisfactorily.

Glad to see that you have been eligible for airdrop from ARB. The inflation of arb is already projected to be around 2% every year. I think that it can still go below $1 anytime. The question is when will that happen with arb? Since it was offering reward for the holders that participated in the governance. Think about that. If you are still holding arb now and you will also able to participate in its DAO or governance.


What a nonsense prediction. I suggest you to did some analysis before trying to create a non sense prediction like that. Solana was L1 and it has around 550 millions in total supply and almost 400 millions in circulating supply. Do you compare it with a L2 token with 10 billions total supply? Use your sense, please.

After reading your story it turns out that there is a dark side that you experience where 1 wallet gets dusted meaning the token was hacked and of course they have tools to claim and tokens automatically.
Then the second is also a mistake from you, maybe you are in a hurry to send it and in the end you paste the wrong address which should be an ARB smart contract, but on the other hand, maybe you will still benefit from what you get from the airdrop.

Even though they have a sizeable supply but I believe this token can keep the price below $1 unless there is another bear market coming in and it might drop below $1 but think again whether for entry below $1 it is or not but in theory have btc is also a good choice let alone approaching the halving.

It seems you are new to this space, supply does not count during a bull market, I believe $ARB will hit $10 just give it a time, if you look at how this space works, the real pump comes when the VC tokens have been released or before they start releasing them, they need this pump to create liquidity,  distribute and exit their positions if you know, you know. Look at Cardano, it has a huge supply and has a market cap of $13 billion, and a price of $0.37 per token but during the last bull market, it hit $3 per token, and you are telling me $ARB will not pump?

Buying $ARB for a price lower than $1 is a good entry, this is not just about having a huge supply but you should consider as well its own technology, its very promising and many investors believe that it can actually hit the price of $5 and beyond. If you don’t want to miss the opportunity again, better to analyze it now and see your price entry.

Well good luck with that approach. I am dca:ing in all the time. I think that after airdropped tokens sell pressure is off this token is going to fight from some serious marketcap top places. I am thinking 10x minimum. Like absolute minimum and i am not even selling then. I am also considering leverage trading this. This is like the first token in a long time i actually like and believe in. And i feel i am now junxing it by talking about it :).

$ARB is still a new project but I also believe on this, I’ve seen their platform and many are already using it. If they continue to introduce more good projects, there’s a big chance for them to pump more. Remember an old project like this, they started at a small price but eventually they pump more as many still adopting the project. $1 can also be a good price to buy with $ARB, but if you are waiting for some corrections then its possible as well, I’m still bullish with $ARB though.

$11 was the after market value before the dump so I think if it's valuated now at the price of $1 and below that, I'll grab some for sure.

Just don't do this, keep your btc and eth.

If you've got some other means for the funding to your ARB purchase, please don't use your eth or btc on it. But if you've got no choice and you badly want to have ARB, spare btc on the option and keep it.

So use your eth instead if you are in a dire situation and really gone out of choices.

Big supply is one of issues but with massive airdrop like Arbitrum did, it will have another problem. Massive selling pressure from airdrop receivers and I don't say it is bad idea to accumulate Arbitrum when its price is cheap. Though it is good plan for 2024 bull run, you must wait a few months before making your accumulation on Arbitrum. Months later, if you accumulate ARB, you should hold it till more than middle of 2024, a few months after Bitcoin 2024 halving.

After that halving, cryptocurrency market will have a new big bull run and it is when you can take profit with your ARB.

pure speculation , hard to trust a coin that had just bring big in airdrop because mostly there is no big future coming from that as we have seen this many times before.
better to buy other coins than remain waiting unless you will invest the funds that you can afford to lose totally and not those funds that we only pretend to be for risk but the truth is not.

About Arb token, this is a project about cryptocurrency trading and it is developed on the Ethereum platform. This project allows users to trade cryptocurrencies with lower transaction fees and faster transaction speeds than traditional trading platforms. And I think the valuation at the moment for a lot of people is very high, but in my opinion in the long-term potential this is quite normal, and no need to worry about it, given the size of this market. very small. I have a strong belief in the future when these markets are large as they can help increase diversification in the crypto market, while also being able to settle. And on that basis, I see ARB will also receive similar values.

I believe that buying ARB will bring more profit than holding bitcoin and Ethereum. Accordingly, buying ARB now for Bitcoin, you will be able to significantly increase the amount of BTC in your wallet. Buying ARB at the price of $1 is almost the same as buying BTC five years ago at $2.5 thousand.

That could be a great comparison, $ARB will reach its new ATH in just matter of time, bull market will be great for this coin so if you have the chance to accumulate now better to do it now so you can catch up. $ARB will continue to introduce more good project at it solve the problem of ETH, this will be a big coin in the future. Looking forward to its new ATH, I expect to see that in the next six months.

Big difference in solona, aptos and other chain coins is that Arb is not the main token used for gas fee which will not increase the demand of this coin like solona. i am not expecting price will go up high as solona or Aptos reached all time high. i am comparing this Arb token with Optimism and i think 3$ will be likely good entry to exit.

At this time the only Usecase of Arb token is i think Dao voting where you will delegate token. Many users are holding for voting purpose and they still believe that they may recieve another good airdrops from Arbitrum projects. if other big Usecase reveal than i think we may see 2$ very soon. from two days Arb showing very good potential and despite of huge supply, its price pumping speed is very good.

I think it is not just good but perfect option to purchase when the price go below 1dollar mate or even lower , because we still have year to wait before the  halving and surely that when Bull comes you will be the one that can bring huge profit from Arb investment , though i am planning the same thing but surely it will be harder for not airdropper like me to purchase more as there are lot of coins to prioritize from my end.

Honestly I assumed that Blur would never go below $1 and look at what price it is now. Same with Arb. I think if we were in a strong bull market the token would eventually reach something like $5 or so however I think many people just dumped the Blur and Arb because they just wanted some profits since BTC and ETH had a horrible turn last year.

I think if it goes below $1, it won't stay there however we won't see $5 anytime soon. Maybe if bitcoin trades closer to the $50K range and we are in a FOMO bull market like in 2021 and people will be buying tokens like crazy. However right now. The gains just aren't the same with these airdrops like they were during the bull run days.

In my opinion if Blur or Arb were launched when BTC hit ATH then they would be much more successful. But with all this regulation mess, Many people just are chasing the quick profits and getting out.

There's even coins with massive supply but still manage to pump hard. ETH, SHIB, and DOGE are only few of the coins to achieve this status. ETH pump because it has a good technology behind but I don't know about the two coin.

I think they only pump mainly because of the hype. ARB on the other hand can pump for both hype and technology. Even if the hype have died down, there is still a technology that can make this coin alive. The OP didn't miss any opportunity but he was in fact one of the early adopters and getting a good amount of airdrops is a proof to it. He seems professional on this business because he also participated on other solid projects who does the same (airdrop).

I'm really waiting for the Arbitrum token to dump to below $1. I even sold some of my airdropped tokens because I am planning to buy cheaper Arbitrum tokens.
But with the current market condition especially since Bitcoin is testing to break $30,000 it seems, the Arbitrum tokens will not reach anymore below $1, I'm not sure.

I see that a lot of investors want to buy a coin at a price below $1. But given the fact that the demand for the coin is not decreasing, we may not see such a price. However, the potential for ARB growth will not be associated with halving, but with the upcoming unlock ARB for investors, which will begin in 1 year.

Everything will come back to you because you will determine it. But if I were you, I wouldn't invest too much in ARB because it's already priced at $1.34. But if you think ARB can increase and reach $11 as its final ATH price, you can take that risk but you have to realize that in the altcoin market, there is a waiting period that you should know so if ARB can't increase yet, you have to wait patiently. And my advice is only to use the money you can afford to invest in any coin so that you won't lose too much if you do lose.

true, it is very difficult for arbitrum to drop below 1$ price. behind arbitrum there is a lot of strong support making my reason the price of arbitrum will probably continue to rise, yesterday after the extraordinary decline of ARB there was a large investor again buying at a price of 1$ more for a sum of 1 billion dollars.

But isn't yearly inflation fixed at just 2%?  And I think by the time investor and team tokens are unlocked, the market would prolly be in full on bull mode where most of everything is trending up.  So things like inflation, FDV, market cap go out the window.  It's just a matter of buying the coins that are moving faster than ETH and BTC while ETH and BTC themselves are moving up in USD value.

ARB will be ETH's leveraged play imho as ARB is moving up in ETH value as ETH moves up in USD value.

Yes Arb is new coin and its not adopted by big whale so much and price increase chance is very high than Btc and Ethereum. If we talk about risk than Arb is more riskier. its price can collapse more than Ethereum and Btc. So far Arb token price is looking good and we have not seen any big dump in this coin. The real test of Arb will begin when market dump from here. its very hard for new coin to survive in dip . This is the reason i am waiting for below 1$ and not making any entry here above 1$

I do not know what kind of inflation you are talking about, but I know for sure that in the first year the number of coins remains the same. Accordingly, there can be no inflation in the first year, since the Circulating Supply will remain unchanged at 1,275,000,000 ARB.

It is still OP's decision as I believe he trusted this coin (and maybe part of lucky Airdrop person to gather many) so buying this below a dollar is a good choice but the thing is that "Would ARB going to drop that low"? that is something that needs to be addressed because for me this will stay above a dollar and will grow again next year, better for OP to purchase now as it is the lowest from the after airdrop price and gather as much as she can for further investments.

actually i was expecting price around 0.5$ to 0.7$ before listing and its starting price shocked me. bybit and Bitget was two big exchange listed Arb and price was above 2$. although when i claimed token the price was dumped to 1.11$ and i sold half at the rate of 1.11$ and after Binance listing, i sold remaining token at  price of 1.25$. now my average selling rate is 1.18$ almost and i don't want to buy at same rate that i sold.  i am still believing that one correction in btc will give me chance to buy Arb below 1$ and i will make my first entry. in two years , I am expecting atleast 3$ price which is possible in bull market.

Perhaps, if the price drops below a dollar, people can buy and invest in ARB. But if the price stays above one dollar, people will have to reconsider buying the coin. They can buy ARB coins but only with the money they can afford, as I suggested before, so they won't lose too much if anything happens to ARB coins. Perhaps, if the price drops below a dollar, I'll buy this ARB; if not, I'll buy some too. But I will analyze it further to find other information so I don't buy the wrong one.

and the price of 10 $ for each arbitrum coin is also not impossible, I predict that in the future the arbitrum will be as large as matic or the like, OP is released when market conditions are red, while ARB has improved quite a bit.
but we will see how both perform after a few years.

The coin is dropping because the ARB foundation might be dumping more coins than agreed upon. I think it was agreed they would only sell $50M but they did some voting and asked to sell more tokens and people voted "no" but they might still dump those tokens.

So far I would stay out until this is resolved. Because the situation is escalating pretty quickly and print is about the break the ATL. If they keep dumping we will dump below $1 for sure. And who knows might even hit $0.50 like we did for Blur. There is a big discussion about this if you search for #ARB on twitter.

you did a great job in selling those range mate and yes you get a good return from airdrop though a little lower from what others got but still a great amount for a freebies .
of course you don't have to buy in that same rate because the effort will be taken away for that so I hope that the price will drops low to below 1 dollar so you can purchase again as I am also planning to buy because I missed the airdrop.

This is crypto market and nothing is impossible as we have seen that happened many times before , Bitcoin even called not to cross a dollar but look at it now, though you must be ready to whatever comes because that is the risk of this kind of investment.
but this does not mean all will climb high as we expected, if you are ready to lose ? then why not , grab all opportunities and risk.

It could be if holds with the current support price right now. In every airdrop it really cause a break down of the price for everyone are selling after they get their airdrop respectively. So, it is better to sell it and wait for more dump before buying it. So currently 1.22$ is the current price but it could down a little more, just set your buy order below your price target and see it happens.

Ethereum layer 2 solutions provider Arbitrum has backtracked on its governance voting system following community backlash from token holder - https://cryptonews.net/news/altcoins/20752117/.
On its official Twitter page, the Arbitrium Foundation published a message (https://twitter.com/arbitrum/status/1642653013062868992) that its first management proposal, AIP-1, “likely will not pass” and added its “committed to addressing the feedback received from the community.”

^  Yup...  Some shenanigans going on rn.  How dumb could they be.  Didn't they think the community would know and would put some sht on their reputation and the project.  Was thinking of just holding my stash long term but now dunno.  I'll prolly wait for the next trend up and sell.  But if ever it does go below 1 USD, I'll prolly buy back.  If not, I stay away.

Yes most of the users already sold after claiming free Airdrop but still many users holding half if their token for better price. Arbitrum dex volume is very close to ETHEREUM and some days ago its almost flipped Ethereum which indicates that arbitrum chain is using by big community. This will also bring positive effect to Arb price.

Hackers who stealed more than 50000$ worth if token from different wallets are still holding Arb tokens and he can anytime sell these which can dump Arb price Below 1$ and this will be chance for people like me to take entry.

This is too small an amount to affect the price of ARB. To influence the market value of the coin, at least it is necessary to increase the Circulating Supply by, for example, 500 million coins. But even without these coins, we see that the value of ARB is slowly decreasing as demand decreases.

I thought that if you were mentioning 50millions and not 50k. 50k USD was nothing. Just let the hacker dump it and it will not give price impact. ARB has big liquidity that can eat it. You can also even dumped millions USD at once.
I see that if that amounts owned small amounts of money. You shall not feeling worryd about that. The different thing if hacker dumped like 50 millions USD worth of ARB.

yes , because if everyone from airdrops had sold all their tokens then surely ARB cannot stay this price till now.

and also those who hacked that worth of tokens still holding it , either they are afraid of being named or at least waiting for the right timing.

ARB can drop that low of course and as my understanding that you are consistent in your plan of waiting to that level  to enter again.

but I think the price of ARB will definitely continue to fall, because in my opinion the right price for ARB is below $1, so of course if you want to invest in ARB, it's better for you to be more patient, because the price of ARB will slowly decrease and when the price of ARB decrease below $1, then it is the right time to invest in ARB, but I'm not also interested to investing in ARB for the long term and prefer to invest in the short term.

Is that why you think a price under $1 is attractive to you in the short term, and what do you expect in the future with this coin?
Personally, I rate what Arbitrum is all very impressive in the crypto space, they have a lot of potential for this as we all see. But what I have observed in recent days with it is FUD, which causes the price to drop continuously but not too much. I don't invest with it for the short term so the price in this range doesn't matter to me, and I like the DCA strategy applied to it, like a number of similar large projects before it. I think it needs time to stabilize and will soon catch up with the market uptrend in the future.

First of all congratulations for getting airdrop. 2000$ is good amount for you if you spend it carefully. some people was eligible more than 10k token and this is life changing Airdrop for many users. you are right that supply is high but demand is high because Arbitrum network is very big and TVL is outstanding. selling above 1$ is not bad because  holdingv#ARB is not looking profitable for short term. in long run it can rise above 5$ but there will many fluctuation through out journey to 5$. i will suggest you to use 1k$  in Ethereum and Bitcoin because both are secure and most promising coin while other you can use in Arb and Op both but not at all. buying below 1$ is worthy but we have not seen any big bad news or Btc crash which make possible to Dump down Arb.

That's more like most of those users who aren't whales and those guys who gamed the airdrop sold their tokens to the whales and those people who are more likely to hold ARB for at least a year or so.  Dunno..  But after the ARB Foundation's shenanigans, it seems like the community is willing to look the other way to avoid risking their bags value from going any lower.  Lol.  I mean of course...  It's all about number go up in this game.  :/

Still holding my airdrop and not selling until 5 USD or something.  I'm trying to treat it like no airdrop happened.  Lol.

well congratulation to you bro I missed everything from uniswap, aptos, arb everything  :'( damn retroactive is kinda hard to figure it out.

But forget about me arbitrum is over $1 and I think in the next altseason this coin have potential to even rose more for now Many people might sell their portion but the price is still stable at one dollar

When you compare Arbitrum circulating supply to other coins that have  pumped in last bull market or other past bull market then you'll see that its circulating supply won't stop it from pumping.

Arbitrum circulating supply is just over $1 Billion which means each time it gets about $1 billion invested in it it rises by another dollars and in the bull market Arbitrum can get lots of billions invested in it.

Arbitrum does have the hype that project that does very well has and already they've listed on top exchange with the project been focus on an area that'll be getting lors of attention in the next bull market which is layer 2 projects.

I know what you mean, i have missed almost every airdrop out there. Except i was very lucky with PAINT. GODS, and IMX, all which i sold near ath. It was pure luck though. I noticed that i had PAINT airdrop near ath because of the hype and gods and imx i sold immediately as i disliked the devs and their constant problems on those. ARB i would have hodled even though i am not sure if that would had been a right choice. It's one coin i want to believe in. And i am constantly DCA:in it to the point of slight regret and disbelief.

actually I also read that part and have something in mind because 50k is just small part of the totality of ARB supply and so that this wont effect the whole market from that .
so basically ? the dumping will truly take part if whales releases their coin and that is really build big effect to the price and maybe the time OP will succeed from his plans in investing.

Well I you still have luck I remember the Paint it was really good airdrop the other is ENS also have good amount of money too.

little bit out of topic retroactive airdrop is tricky to catch because some developer might don't say about the airdrop we just know about the snapshot date.
Right now there is topic that Zksync has an airdrop but I don't know.

in the other ARB still looking good I saw bunch of App launched there so it think it will popular and drive the price

Just got lucky bro...  I never really expected an airdrop as I was just trying stuff out at Arbitrum.  But I did participate in the Odyssey thing and got the NFT.  But it was really nothing.  Most of my volume was losing most of my money in options at Dopex.  :D  Then lo and behold I made enough volume in Arbitrum to get 5000 ARB tokens.

But if you want in on a potentially decent airdrop, I'd say start getting in some volume with Arbitrum, Stargate Finance, Radiant Capital and Rage Trade combo and try to be eligible in Layer Zero's airdrop.  

You could bridge ETH and USDC to Arbitrum through Stargate Finance.  Deposit at Radiant Capital, then borrow against your deposit.  Use what you borrowed to deposit in Rage Trade and trade the perp exchange.  If you could get more than 10k USD of volume in, you might be eligible for an airdrop.  Rage Trade is prolly going to have its own airdrop too, so that's hitting a couple ones.

This is not surprising, since the market is now in the sideways. There is no doubt that ARB has a high potential, but if we look around, we will see a lot more promising coins, the price of which will also increase on a bullish trend. Many airdrop recipients sold ARB without regret, investing in other coins and gifts for themselves.

The whales are actively buying arb for long term. Some whales already tried to buy more and more tokens gradually from the market. You can see this please https://twitter.com/lookonchain/status/1643814726961631233

investing will worth when OP was able to get into the bottom price. I don't even think arb will be going even lower than $1

actually as reading OP's comment , he seems to wanted buying bellow but at least he'll consider if the value goes close to 1$ as he sell His ARB at above a dollar .
but of course all we need to see if this can take effect as like you said , whales now are buying and there is a chance that this will hold that level and may never see that below 1dollar price.

it's okay if you trust ARB more than Bitcoin, I personally don't really like risk, so I prefer to keep holding Bitcoin instead of inflaming Bitcoin just to buy ARB, because I believe if a bullrun occurs, then the price of Bitcoin will increase very high and of course the price of Bitcoin will create a new ATH price (I can get a big profit too from Bitcoin).

let us support OP in His journey as I think he knew what comes her way and that is the spirit of true investors, to love what he really need to trust and yes surely even if he did not succeed sooner , but the future will bring him fruits .
but I believe that he needs not to wait that super low price , maybe at least 1 dollar exactly or close to that price.
and reading this thread and OP's confidence to ARB? i am starting to like and thinking of buying also in that range of price.

You do not need to sell bitcoin for ARB, also buying altcoins is just gambling, but I think it is gambling that is really worth it. Assuming you have 70% allocation for bitcoin while only 30% for altcoins. Out of the 30% for altcoins, you can choose some percentage for ARB and just invest. But people should be mindful for now that if bitcoin go to $20000, altcoins would fall as expected and the fall would be very massive.

'A lot more promising' in what sense?  As an investment or as a project?  I think Arbitrum is way ahead vs a lot of other L2 projects and could end up with the third highest in network volume just behind Ethereum and BNB.  But as an investment, I would have to agree.  If ARB could go 10x there are other projects that could go way more than that...  I still think the next great 1000x would be a memecoin of some sort.  With something like a DOGE logo.  :D

Crypto has taught me that scams and ponzus pump the hardest.

I guess in the coming days arb value will be going below $1 since there are many fuds around, but we'll see, there's many rumour in regard of arb devs team sketchy coin allocation which might trigger uproar among the communities, but if the devs had proper reasoning I guess the value will increase again, right now i'm gonna say it, that arbitrum isn't in the right state, but could always make recovery.

I have read some suggestions from Arbitrum in response to community pressure due to recent bad news with the project. Honestly, I personally think that the price of $ 1 in the long term is not too much of a problem because I think like many other big projects before OP, APTOS,.. ARB will soon be pumped again. Now I am keeping my long liquidation position at $0.7, however I also place a buy spot order at $0.75, so I feel pretty safe.

just wait until many more of its competition comes out I guess, right now arbitrum might be very well be overvalued since there was this massive fame accompanying it around the airdrops distribution that was quite massive, even though that might just be my wrong opinion, but honestly i'm rather doubtful whether arbitrum could score massive increase for the simple fact that it was quite stagnant right now, even optimism has its coin stuck, it was massive when airdrops comes in and rather become stagnant later, the trend drained the potential of the project.
moreover, the scalability of these L2 i think aren't really well tested, considering the fact that when there are airdrops claiming for both OP and arbitrum, there was massive spike of fee increase which more or less the same occurred in current ETH main blockchain.

Anything can happen in crypto, no matter what project it may be. In case of ARB it is possible to go down below a dollar yet it is a great opportunity to buy when the price is low, that's the basic idea on how to make profit. If that happens then surely many will buy and make profit when it up again. Nonetheless, ARB is a great project which will do better in the next bull market cycle.

Honestly, after reading about Arbitrum, I think it is a good investment. Although I don't think it is that good enough to choose over bitcoin or ethereum. The best approach would be to just buy some amount with your spare funds and just do cost averaging little by little when good opportunities to buy comes. At least it's a bit better than those countless shitcoins popping out of nowhere every now and then. Also, it would be wise to keep yourself updated about it so you don't end up sinking too deep by DCA-ing mindlessly. Good luck OP.

In my opinion, the price of Arbitrum above $ 1 is also expensive because if you look at the total supply, it can reach 10 billion,
of course that is a lot, so don't be too greedy if you get more profit at ARB, yes, even though the project is promising, ARB is already in the top 50 CMC.

Arbritum team has not built on and managed their recent success very well, the way the team went about their recent governance vote is bad and has created a bit of FUD, I don't see any incentives or narratives to make the price pump. Long-term $ARB will do well, it has a strong community that is striving, and strong VCs that will protect their investment, so it is a long-term buy and hold

Arb token still Above 1$ despite of many bad news around it. The main reason of its price remain stable above 1$ is the Dao voting they launched before TGE which offer holder to delegate and vote. These voting power sometimes results in big airdrops from big projects. Arbitrum chain is still new and many projects will be launch in this chain and there is possibility for voters to be given new projects token just like Evmos, Juno and other Cosmos network projects. i am not in buying mode or i would buy it below 1$ too

Arb is a new altcoin, of course I'm still not really sure about Arb,
if according to Coinmarketcap the price of ARB ATH is indeed $11 because that's because Fomo is extraordinary,
but we also have to look at the supply from ARB, if you look at CMC supply ARB can reach 10 billion,
of course this can make ARB fall below $ 1, even below $ 0.1, so it's better to invest gradually.

This coin has a strong support indeed even after some FUDS it still can't go below $1 which is I'm waiting to buy some. The community and supporters behind it is strong and I'm still hoping that I can get some below $1. I'm still trying to be patient for some FUDs that can make the price go down since the coin is pretty brand new to the market and it's hard to make a technical analysis for it. I'm sure I'm not the only one who is waiting for this coin to go below $1 and accumulate it. There are still too much that can happen, I'll still be waiting.

Airdrops have been offering outstanding opportunities for many people in crypto to increase their portfolio, and attracting new communities to join crypto, as these opportunities aren't available anywhere. Regarding ARB, I think it will depreciate in value as long as airdropped tokens haven't been fully claimed, because the whales won't give the opportunity for hunters to sell at high prices, and at the same time, we are still in a bear market, at least for altcoins, so yes, it may go below $1 somehow. Personally, although I didn't benefit from the airdrop, I like this project and have a plan to buy as much as I can afford. I also feel that OP and ARB can do what Matic did during the previous cycle.

The polygon also has a Max Supply of 10 billion coins, but this does not prevent the coin from trading at a price above one dollar. And at the same time, the ATH was almost $3. Arbitrium has the same Max Supply, but during the first year there will be only 1,275 billion coins in circulation. Accordingly, we can see a higher ARB price than the one that is now.

So does everybody still think ARB could still break down below 1 USD or is going above 2 USD the more likely scenario?  I think the guys saying it could go below 1 USD are not really thinking about the potential benefits of being a token holder.  Arbitrum is the hottest L2 rn and the fees generated by the protocol are increasing due to more usage.  Where do you guys think those fees would go in the future if not to ARB holders?  :/

ARB would all be scooped up if it touches 1 USD.

It might be good but it is still new and what if the team can't sustain their developments? I already witness a coin like this who are only good at the start but crash later on. BTC and ETH are not just good coins but they already tested through time. Investors can't go wrong with them.

ARB might be pumping lately due to hypes but BTC and ETH supporters should not be jealous and join the bandwagon because they will have their own time too soon. If you want to DCA you better do that in BTC and ETH. For ARB, many are waiting for it to dump before they invest. That shows that they don't fully trust the coin yet like how they trust BTC and ETH.

Right now, all those who previously received an airdrop from Arbitrum can receive an airdrop from AIDOGE. The time for claim airdrop is limited. The coin has a listing on MEXC - https://www.mexc.com/ru-RU/exchange/AIDOGE_USDT?_from=search_spot_trade
Website - https://arbdoge.ai/
Smart contract AIDOGE - 0x09E18590E8f76b6Cf471b3cd75fE1A1a9D2B2c2b
Profit - about $30

Arbitrum's market cap is still very large, so the possibility of going under $ 1 is clearly very difficult, moreover,
I'm sure whales have also been waiting for it to be below $ 1, and ARB had ATL at $ 1.1 a while ago,
but we also have to know that Arbitrum is a new project and there the possibility of market cap changes very quickly.

I do plan to buy ARB below $0.85, because I believe that if the price of ARB can still fall below $0.85, so until now I have only been monitoring the price of ARB and haven't bought it yet, but if the price of Bitcoin has touched $40k, then I will definitely going to buy ARB right away, because I believe it indicates a bull run is coming soon, so I don't want to miss another bull run.

L2 with GMX I mean I see it as a DEFI initiative infrastructure if you ask me but still lots of supply and team is sluggish with their reveals but still is the second biggest chain after ETH when it comes to trading volume Assuming SEC doesnt screw us up I think the price of 5-10 is highly possible once SEC unleash and have favorable conditions for crypto

well thats true that there is most certainly the possibility of ARB kept getting down, after all it seems the trend of meme coin generated in that blockchain has subsides significantly.
back then every day there was some meme coin airdrop and surprisingly they are all have some worth. but right now it seems that is no more.

Regarding this, to be honest, I'm not too surprised because that's the trend of coin meme,
no need to hope for more because in the end it will only be a waste of time,
the most important thing just follow the existing developments.

^  With memecoins, you don't trade them during the start or the middle of a bullish trend.  Most of them don't move or the usually underperform the rest of the market.  The thing is to start paying attention at the tail end of the bullish trend.  There's gonna be random low market cap memecoins pumping 5x - 10x in a week and sometimes goes on for longer if it gains traction.

But remember, it's the tail end of the trend.  With it, tho fun, comes the top signal.  So be ready to flip bias.

Anyway, the whole alt market looks like it's ready to go down a bit due to the shenanigans going on with BTC.  Some mfker sold down at the days high.

It may possible to happen only if there will be more locked tokens to be distrbuted into the circulating supply. ARB is even stronger compared with SUI at this moment. The fact that if it's holding the biggest TVL as second layer solution compared with its competitor optimism. Im thinking about your hope will not even come true. It's caused by ARB will not be going to the bottom again if bitcoin will stay at the same place.
People are very often using ARB as alternative blockchain for their transaction.

You need a miracle to see arb's price will be going to the bottom again.

I don't see a connection between the fact that the Arbitrum blockchain is in demand and the price of the ARB coin. If such a connection existed, it would be possible to assume that the blockchain ceased to be in demand when the price of the coin declined.

I tend to say transaction fees and transaction speed are one of the factors that influence whether a blockchain is used or perhaps abandoned more often. It doesn't matter what the value is - but transaction fees and transaction speed can play a part in increasing value.

The more transactions that are made on the blockchain - the more trading volume in the same day or it means that there are many users utilizing that blockchain to make transactions.

even though arb was good coin honestly but the main drive of its price was mainly because of the many meme coin that has emerged in the blockchain.
everytime there is an airdrop it adds massively towards the traffic of the blockchain. I think now that the trend has been weakening it affects arbitrum.

The circulation of supply from ARB is still relatively small, because I see in coinmarketcap only 1,275,000,000 ARB are currently circulating,
and of course the price below $ 1 is still quite expensive, try to compare it with some altcoin projects that have a large supply such as ARB,
then you will know how the ARB is supposed to be.

considering the fact that this coin was massive at the release, current market capitalisation is still relatively low.
I just think it highly undervalued. its not even in the top 10.

It's hard to see ARB in below one dollar, despite the bear market it still can manage to recover no matter what the obstacles have been into the market lately. It shows that ARB has a solid foundation and of course a blue-chip project that deserves more recognition and support from the crypto community.

The ARB coin, although it is a native token of the Arbitrium network, but the commission in the network is charged not in this coin, but in ETH. Accordingly, the cost of ARB cannot affect the cost of transactions on the network, and depends on the cost of ETH at the moment.

This is the reason The ARB token is not performing like other coins which are uses as a gas fee. Aptos is not better coin then Arb but performing well then Arb. the only reason is Aptos token used for gas fee and user have to provide liquidity in Aptos while Arbitrum network Eth used for liquidaty purpose. i think still Arb price is very good and despite of bearish market it price above 1$ which is good segment for long term holder.

Given that it was massive before then I won't say that it was undervalued. To be on top 10 isn't easy but a coin may need to prove itself first if it was truly worthy and not just good at hype. They say that low-cap coins are risky but it made sense because the reward that entails on them are also huge.

ARB already received a good feedback from the public, so if we are into low-cap coins, we can check this one out and we are sure that we are safer to it compared to some low-cap coins out there who are not been properly rated yet. That is because they are not that popular as ARB. This is what they say that a big budget is necessary when creating a coin so that we can avail to market our project easily in different platforms.

Given the methodology that is used to calculate the total capitalization of the coin, then with the right approach it is not difficult at all. And considering that in the future the coin will have large unlocks, it can be assumed that the market capitalization will increase and it is likely that after a while the coin will get into the TOP 10.

ARB already received good feedback reason from investors especially of there airdrop :'( anyway total supply of arb token is 10 millions maybe so if they will release supply then down is positive. Besides that the ARB token all-time low price is $0.91 That means many big investors bought during this period and they will be encouraged to sell when they get good profits.

arb total supply is 10 billions, that's too much far off. otherwise the total market capitalization would be not more than 10 million dollars.
I think the main reason arb is keep getting down is because meme coin trend fading off, you see the main motivation that make arb goes up back then was the massive meme token created in there but i could be wrong.

They get good profits if they were buying on the such price but i don't even believe if angle investors will be buying on such price as he has been acquiring tokens caused by they have become early investors for the project itself.

ARB is still become L2 blokcchain with the biggest TVL https://l2beat.com/scaling/summary

People who think that it can be in the top 10 are people who are dreaming. It's not undervalued, if anything it is overvalued right now and we are going to see it go down even more. Or maybe the bull run will start before it goes down and in that case it will probably not go down, but it will certainly not go up as much as some of the other things.

I am not too much of a ARB person as you can understand from what I am saying, I just believe that it was never something that should have been this big and for some reason people got hyped about it. Only thing they are good at is marketing which caused it to go up like this and I believe that we are not going to really see it change anytime soon neither, it's going to be quite different.

And what benefits do ARB coin holders get from this? The Arbitrum network previously had one of the largest TVL back when the ARB coin did not exist yet. And the blockchain would certainly still work well now if the ARB coin did not exist at all.

This is unfortunately very common and not many people realize how wrong that is. I have to point out that there is nothing we can do regarding this and have to just accept that we are going to be out of top ten for this coin.

This isn't even just about people who support this coin neither, it's just about how there are too many people who have lost money because they believed that the thing they invested into could be a top ten one day and that's an issue, I feel like it is going to be an issue for a long time. I believe that we can't just get over it, and need to learn to live with. I know that it will take some time, but I bet that it is going to be pretty decent if people start to realize top ten is not a must when you invest.

I wouldn’t buy ARB simply because it has no real utility. It’s just another governance token and settles TXs with ETH.  What I’m really interested in are the projects built ON Arbitrum.

quite the opposite i invested in arbitrum for the sake of it being L2 meaning it has real utility and real problem to solve that is to avoid the high gas fee of ethereum in general.
its because of this that arbitrum is quite popular, the reason for the downtrend that arbitrum currently has is the fact that there probably many airdrops receiver still dumping their coins into the market but
eventually this will gets solved, moreover the projects on arbitrum generally aren't that interesting anyway, most of them are meme coins, most of the good projects are definitely still in ethereum.

Launching l2 to provide lower gas fee is no utility imo, there are already number of evm chains who provide cheap transactions, polygon and optimism are also relatively cheaper compared to arbitrum


Most dapps I come across — if they are on ethereum, they are also on arbitrum.

Arb seems a potential altcoin which is still strong with its position. Arb community must has strength, so that they are establishing a altcoin even during bear is controlling the market. They spend lot of money for airdrop and promotional purpose and  already unlocked many facilities like try to solve real problem, development their own blockchain with low transaction fee and enter layer 2 altcoins galaxy. Price may down now but i hope, It'll be proved as a great altcoin in upcoming days. So holding arb is good decision, in my point of view

it seems like their ecosystem aren't as active when compared to their initial listing where quite literally everyone is flocking into the ecosystem, also the meme coins trend in their blockchain also fading.
I guess thats the reason it has went downhill ever since, I think its the same case with other L2 coins like optimism too, added with the fact that even sui and sei also having similar fall in prices.
It seemed like these coins being invested by big venture capital doesn't guarantee the fact that it might be overly valued by many people just because they have partnership and have hard time building their
value even retaining it. thats why they are now having many corrections one after another.

but I think it might still have another chance of bullrun when the season is changing into bullish.

Bruh, I had been thinking to convert my airdrop since price was hovering above $1.3, kept procrastinating and now it has dumped this bad.

Arbitrum has seen a notable decrease in its network usage metrics, causing concern among investors and traders.
The price of ARB has dropped to a new low, but the future of Arbitrum appears bright as an increasing number of developers and users are embracing it. Thus despite this decline, I plan to hold onto my Arbitrum coins for the long term.

thats the thing with altcoin, the more you hold the more it will lose its price unless you are patient enough to wait until next bullrun even then
there are no guarantee that it will rise in the next bullrun meaning the procrastination costs a lot of money.
i myself also holds some arbitrum and still haven't liquidated till this day, i don't know whether i should regret, after all i got the airdrop for free.
on the other hand, i'm losing potential money.

Well, I said procrastination but it was just fear and greed. What if I sell and it rises?


I have decided to hold now, whatever happens, happens. Early sellers sold at $5-$7 per arb, this is also the reason I refused to sell at $1.3 mark  ;D. And now that I think about it, had I sold around that mark, I'd have increased my arb portfolio by purchasing back in current dump, I know it's easier said than done but still.

Arb is good coin, highest TPS amongst layer 2 ATM, we'll likely see $10+ for it. Hopefully, I'll sell it this time instead of succumbing to fear and greed.

This due to the increasing competition for side chain. Also Arbitrum is less hype anymore since Airdrop is already over. An L2 project like this usually become popular from investors due to the potential airdrop. Now that airdrop was release then there’s nothing to look forward here since there’s a lot of new L2 project that offers airdrop possibilities with almost same or improved version of Arbitrum.

Optimism is one of the great competitor of this project which is now performing well since its an early project which many loyal investors established already their holdings in there.

Well let's see in the upcoming bull market if ARB thrives. I have a friend who qualified and got his ARB from airdrop but he rushed sold his airdrop tokens, he told me that he like the project but the decision he made by selling his ARB is to try to buy ARB in it's lowest price. Today he told me he still accumulates ARB using the funds he got from selling his airdrop ARB. I myself is also accumulating ARB so we all gonna be disappointed if this project drop dead during the bull market. After all we invest for long term, let's see.

^  Lol what are you even saying?  Arbitrum has one of the highest TVL's out there and it's prolly top 5 with L1's included and it has the highest TVL if only compared to all L2's that are out there right now.  So saying that it would drop dead would be kinda, for a lack of a better word, dumb imho.  So if you're accumulating now, I'm pretty sure it will def pay off.

Oh...  And the Arbitrum Foundation just announced they'll be having another round of Odyssey again.  It's going to last for 7 weeks and I think it will involve 13 projects.  They prolly have an anti bot measure in place?

I guess its mainly because of the lack emerging meme coin nowadays, quite literally the trend has ended, but it also means that the fee required will be cheaper since considering when meme coin in arbitrum was still massive the fee was also massive too making L2 somewhat pointless, now L2 truly serves its main purpose in which i greatly favour.
i'm pretty sure that in the next bullrun arbitrum could be as big as polygon and the other, these L2 are simply good for being alternative of using ethereum main blockchain because it could save a lot of money meanwhile i don't think ethereum could ever solve their problem after all ethereum high gas fee not because too much transactions but because ethereum price already too high.

Yes, the Arbitrum team has already presented all 13 projects that will be involved in the "Arbitrum Odyssey": https://arbitrumfoundation.medium.com/arbitrum-odyssey-reignited-a98f627d42ef At the same time, the team informed that participants should not count on airdrop, as the reward for this quest will be various NFT. Nevertheless, we will still hope for airdrop)

Apart from all those losses you faced, at least you still have net profit. That sounds refreshing to me and arb sounds wise choice. I checked arb chart, arb wasn’t available below 1$ for last 6 months even since it listed on exchanges but from last 2 months it start dumping as market situation. Still offering estimate 85cent which is good price in bear market. And its already trusted as well as popular among all Layer 2 (L2) which has real utility and problem solving ability in long run. So it wise to buy arb again if you would like to go for it among others altcoins

can actually vouch that many did exactly this, so many people procrastinating thinking its okay dumping airdrop later because its good project but alas this project just dumped really bad.
i don't know whats up with these L2 project but they seemed to just outright losing value after some listing.
maybe because they have too much airdrop distributed and the market demand couldn't contain it. therefore the dumping.
or maybe the project isn't actually that good?, i don't know.

I don't think arb is bad project, even if I did sell, I would have done so only to increase my holdings by purchasing at lower price later. I am sure arb will rebound to great heights in proper market conditions.

Sad what happened with you. Next time more careful about wallet phase but you also earn good amount from airdrop and thats huge. Arb Concept suppose to be quite good and it still has a lot of space to raise up. I found this coin potential among new launched coins and So you can still buy this coin,  1$ seems good to buy. But i suggest not to investment full capital. Keep some for your need as you already mentioned you took loan for need of money

Arb and OP both are very good project. we could see the transaction volume of both projects which is still very good and somehow competitive with Ethereum. price below 1$ was good entry. I think Arb will pump to 2$ minimum. Arb is on my list of top 10 coins for long term

it's true that all biggest projects before airdrop distribution attract more investors. we see ATH transaction because people thinks that they will get airdrop if they use their network and this is the reason people transact more to qualify for airdrop. airdrop is not reason of losing value. airdrop will attract many users and they use airdrop token for providing liquidity, staking and voting.

The question that should first come in mind is that why the loan and on what ground is this taken, you cannot want to make an investment in altcoins and go after taking loan, because that alone is more dangerous than the Investment your taking the risk on, there's no doubt that any currency can rise and just as we can believe this should also be thesame way we should have in believing their fall anytime.

Borrowing to invest in crypto? Really stupid because this business is an uncertain success. If your investment is not for the best time then you can lose big money and even have to sell other assets to pay off your loan. arb is almost the best token to invest but I want to invest with my own deposit and not resort to any kind of loan. Moreover arb is best list token so your money will be safe and you can get good profit in bull market.

In my opinion, a price below $1 is a good and ideal entry to start investing with Arbitrum, because Arb is one of the altcoins that has excellent prospects and fundamentals, I am sure that if the bull run has arrived then we will see the price of Arb soar high and provide large profits to its holders.

Wtf you talking about?  A lot of people 'borrow' to trade crypto everyday.  You can do it right now in an exchange that has a perps market and margin trading...  It's called trading on leverage.  :/

Anyway about ARB going below 1 USD, I think it could happen again when the huge token unlock starts on March 16 next year.  And it is yuuuge.  Lol.

OP created thread when arbitrum was launched new token and that time the token was looking so strong but later btc dumped below 28k and that time everyone was feeling fear.. Many tokens down, arbitrum token also dumped below 1$. 0.75$ is low I think in the 20 October. I don't know OP get advantage from this opportunity or not because he is not active in this thread for long time..If he buy then he will be 30% profit now.

I think ARB is still under value because currently trading price is 1.01$.. One push is required and we will see token price pump above 1.5$. Solona,avax already pumped and now time for AI coin and next trends might be of Arb and OP.

@vs2014, First of all, I think this wasn't a business but indeed cryptos are very uncertain. Second of all, even the business them selves are also uncertain. Borrowing money isn't a stupid idea as long as you know how to spend it. Maybe we can only allocate sufficient amount in cryptos and the rest will go to other important spendings. Meanwhile the "borrow" you are talkin about here @tokeweed seems a different one.

And as you see, @vs2014 talks about borrowing to invest. So I supposed, he is referring to the traditional way of borrowing money but there are also crypto lending platforms where we can directly borrow a crypto. Now about ARB, its value is still on the $1 range, so below $1 is high likely.

Yea but almost all of them require collateral to be locked before you can borrow, so if you don't have any money in first place it's not a feasible option. I said almost because there could be platforms that don't require collateral, but I'm not aware of one.

adjuactly, there are already a facilities available what is l called leverage trading Which is provided buy exchange. That allows people to get 10x even 20x of leverage against your available capital, which is a great facilities, could be consider as big loan. Although when @vs2014 quote my opinion with this reply, i guess he was trying to reference "Bank Loan" or additional loan from "friends and family". With such case, if anyone fail to manage his capital and end up with loss, then a person have to in pressure to repay their money to them even selling off your valuable asset. Which is true IMO

arb suppose to be strong enough yet. It keep adoption and upgrading themself daily and become rank top40 as a new coin, that is great archive in my opinion. Token unlock is common thing, what could be the reason for dump arb but I'm still optimistic about the abr future and have planning go with it

I think ARB is another promising project in the market, they launched their own blockchain and i see a lot of new projects chosen ARB chain, considering some factors it will be big in the future. As a new platform they already achieved good position in market as like it’s top 50th rank in CMC. 1$ is still cheap price to entry because in the bull run i hope it will increase 3x-5x.

ARB is one of the popular L2 networks built on ETH and they have one of the biggest TVLs in the industry. But the problem with their price is their token unlock schedule. It has a massive 10B total supply and more than 80% of its token supply is going to be unlocked from somewhere next year. It will see a lot of selling pressure which can limit its potential growth in terms of price. There is no doubt that this is one of the best project in the industry but their tokenomics is not good for long term.

I am very interested to know how you make money from here with testnet. I am only working here on signature campaign and I can't earn from anywhere else. If I can earn some money like you said it will be my biggest support. I want to know whether testnet work is very easy? Is there any medium to follow to learn them? Please let me know. I know from your details that you have earned a lot of money from here. Many people talk about airdrop campaign but there i joined and worked but till now i didn't get any money.

ARB supply is high. ARB won't reach higher prices with much more supply, but ARB could go from $2 to $3 if Bitcoin reaches $100,000. From here I can say if you invest in bitcoin or ethereum you will get more success with less risk.

Brother if you really want to earn from airdrops than you have to learn that not every project will give you descent airdrop. You have to check project first and then do all possibly task to qualify for early supporters airdrop. Currently big projects where airdrop possibility is high are Zksync, Starknet, Layerzero,Scroll, Linea and Base network. You are Bangladeshi person and there are lot of Bangali channel on Youtube where you can learn airdrops(Testnet, Retroactive). I will recommend this channel.
https://youtube.com/@CryptoEnglish


Arb is strong project and we can guess the potential of this project from their daily transaction and project launched on Arbitrum project. People are staking Arb token in large amount which is good sign for token price. I think it will easily jump over 2$ when btc stable above 50k$

Thank you very much bro you have guided me with your valuable time. I joined the channel you provided and watched many videos about airdrop and testnet. I will practice all the knowledge from here but I request you if I don't understand anything anywhere I will follow you please help me that's my request.

Don't worry dear, you can reach me anytime. You can ask me in personal message or DM me on telegram (@Gladitorcomeback1) will check and reply im free time. Remember that all testnet are free and you need only testnet token which are absolutely free and you don't need to pay for it. In retroactive airdrops you have to spend some fund in bridging, swapping purpose to complete all task. Don't rely on just this Youtube channel and always research about project before joining any compaign.

I think by now we could see that ARB could be one of those laggards and overcroweded trades in the market.  I mean look at it.  I was expecting it to make a move like TIA or TAO since to has one of the highest TVL's and among the highest in stablecoin MC among L2's...  It's really disappointing tbh.  I still completed all the NFT's in their revived Odyssey campaign tho.  Could be another chance to get some airdrops once more tokens get unlocked next year.

And another thing guys, look up Monad.  Looks like it's gonna be one of the best new L1's next alt szn.  ;) ;) ;)

The moment we begin to compare one coin or token to another then we may be missing some guide on why we should exercise more patience on any coin for its own season to come, the falling of a particular coin is not what we should look at, we also have to consider the general market performance and give more priority to our investment which we must have researched about right from the beginning.

Buying arbitrum below 1 dollar could be great deal although price already increased a lot for recent market movement. Arb launched few months ago and become top leading altcoins in crop Crypto market as it has potentiality, prospects and strong fundamental with excellent community. I think this is just a start cause $1 is still cheap for it as this potential Altcoin deserve more value to gain and i guess, soon it will be do so cause bull is colse enough to come. It could increase more than ether

the thing with layer 2 tokens there are too much competition that I think the rise in term of value would be difficult but we all know that sometime the price could randomly shoot up high enough without even proper reasoning, optimism has risen quite a it this week and i think arbitrum is just waiting for its chance to go high just like the other but we already having quite many L2 waiting to release like linea, zksync and now blast sometime I think could the market sustain the appearance of these many L2, will the next year also have many L2 releasing we don't know for sure but considering that ethereum is still leading the way with its blockchain despite the high gas fee might open up opportunity for L2 in general to grow.
regardless arbitrum still have many potential, it hasn't even reached its true all time high so I guess its still deserving investment.

Arb has huge unlock coming in March next year, that could hit it a bit but if rally continues, we might continue to go on unscathed. Arb is easy $5-$7, current price is bargain.

it is indeed cheapest to invest now because valuing with a dollar now as Arbitrum is one
of the most promising coin when Bull market comes,  even if this won't hit 5 dollars but easy double value will surely come.

Actually i was planning to buy , but sadly the fees of bitcoin is too high that I am waiting
for the fee to drop down so I can convert some of my holding to arb before the halving happens.

Is it? Yesterday, I went with 42 sats fee, transaction got confirmed within couple hours, paid around $2 fee, which is pretty nominal. Once before that, I paid same fee, but since congestion was high, I had to wait for 12 hours. You can do same, make your transaction on night before going to bed and wait, by morning your transaction would get confirmed.

No need to wait for congestion to get over honestly, unless you have to make urgent transfer it doesn't matter at all.

Token unlock sites say that around 87% of the current supply is gonna be unlocked around middle of March.  That's huge, almost double the supply.  :/  And knowing it in advance could prevent it from going up to 5 - 7 bucks imho.  Why buy ARB when you could ape in other tokens that go up?

And ARB looks to me like it's the laggard of the market.  TVL and stablecoin market cap are good but nobody really cares to ape in the token.  Not sure why this is.  Arbitrum is like the best L2 out there rn.

$Arb is a good hold for me, these new tokens coming to market especially the new L2 tokens are going to lead the pump this cycle, just like Solana, Luna, Avax etc. the L1 pump the last cycle, the reason is that the VC's have not started having their tokens and they need good pump for them to dump on retailers, the first $Arb unlock from what I heard is coming in March, 2024 I expect $Arb and ts ecosystem to do well next quarter

Bumping this so we could get discussion flowing, Arb is now close to $2, let's see how token unlock is gonna affect this, there are plenty this year [1]. If the market will be able to sustain the sell pressure of people dumping arb due to this event rather than new tokens being available to trade in market.

^  The problem is the amount of tokens that get unlocked in a couple of months is yuuuge.  Around 87% of the circulating supply.  So I'm pretty sure it's gonna have some negative impact in ARB's price action.

But here's the thing...  What the Arbitrum devs could also do, which could pump ARB by a lot, is to relock those tokens for another year or so.  ;D  It's gonna be a win win for everyone.

People holding ARB now will see their tokens continue to appreciate in value, while the dev team and the VC's will also be able to receive their tokens at presumably higher value...  Albeit at a later date.

Op as you already realized that time was perfect for you to buy arbitrum with low amount. Now price is about to touch the sky. Arb launch ed in Q1 of 2023 when bear run wll controlling entire crypto ecosystem but arb managed itself well and After a challenging year, ARB left behind other newcomers and become in top50 altcoin list. its price have rebounded with remarkable price and even indicates that its growth may keep continue for whole year

My bad that I couldn't able to buy below 1$. I was waiting fro Arb to dump below where I take decent entry for long term as I was bullish on this project but when time comes, market down, Arb also dump below 1$ then unfortunately I was out of fund. I used all my holding for real world needs. Now I have fund for investment but market is pumped more than my expectations and especially Arb is now more risky. Now I am looking for another opportunity,token which is under valued and I hope I will not miss the bot next time

I expect dump due to huge unlock that's coming in March [1], and more unlocks every 4 weeks after that. We are in bullish market and these unlocks have bearish impact, I'm not sure who will win here but I sold portion of ARB received from airdrop few days ago. It was surprisingly perfect moment to sell, cause it dumped shortly after.

That's a good timing, as there is impact when numbers of coins show up inside the market, people like you who manage to earn this coin from
the airdrop may have that same sentiments.

They can dump those rewards and it will affect the value of this coin, though just the same with what you said, we don't know who's going to
win and enjoy in the long process, maybe the team behind this project have added plan for the future of this coin.

We never know what it can be, more on the side of your instinct and trust with how the project will bring you benefits that you desire.

i also heard about unlocking their supply although I'm unsure about the percentage and how many arb is going to unlock after every 4 weeks. I think arb team keep doing such pump so that they can reach more and more people now. And trying to let them know that they are potential altcoin so that they could have more investment during their unlocking period and thus unlocking Supply will effect less on arbitrum value cause then many new investor will buy which could prevent the price from dumping more. I think that's the point and BTC halving could be an issue that will effect arb price too but afterward it will fly again. Although i still believe it won't dump that much due to its higher demand & potentiality

You can check defillama page linked in comment you quoted, it stats all.


That may be true, I heard on Twitter that Arbitrum investors may pump $ARB before unlock, so it can sustain the selling pressure and they get good prices to offload, the recent pump was due to hype regarding ARB reaching ATH TVL, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was manipulation involved in reaching this milestone too.

means if the token lock is opened then there will be a small dump at that time, but if this is what the arb ecosystem and community is like then it's not a big problem.
I think the next bull, my prediction is that the arb could reach 10$.

Yup, it's gonna be on March 16 and as said before it's going to be 87% of the current supply.  That's almost double.  I'm pretty sure a lot of those guys will start unloading as it's a cliff unlock.  Meaning all those tokens are available for selling at the date of the unlock.  

And those tokens are the team's and the early investors' allocations, oof.  But it would be bullish if the team and the investors decide to relock for another year.  :/  We'll see...

We have seen ARB hit its price max highs this bull season. ARB reached an all-time high of $2.425 and currently stands at $1.8983. But with the Bitcoin market, since all coins are on the rise, if Bitcoin reaches $100,000 after the halving, ARB can go to $10. But we must wait and see until after the Bitcoin market halves and new Bitcoin ATH is created.

Yes, I support all the new layer 2s entering because they will indeed be the top tier, there are so many new sectors in crypto this year to enliven AI, L2, L1 Defi gaming, which will enter the bull run event.
even though we still have to wait a few months.

layer 2 tokens are trending now, I don't know why but I feel bullish on projects like that, that's why I also think that the arb will be fine, maybe it will decrease due to market conditions and other things, but after that, it will rise again.

No doubt that arb is best coin and its advance technology keep developing everyday and making it more better. But suddenly crypto market changing so rapidly and it goes so volatile to take decision. I think DCA mathod can be applied with arb until the march. After that, it'll be risky and situation will be unknown. I think arb is good to buy in april, possible time of dip! Cause it'll possibly dump in March and then expect more dump for halving.so final dip could occurred in april month.

Its the best time to buy Arbitrum coin, when it was below 1$. Because, Arbitrum is a strong layer 2 project. Now, the price of arbitrum coin is moving around 3$. Now i think its already gives 3X profit to their early holders. Which is a good return at this stage. Bitcoin price touches 49000$. But due to large bitcoin dominance the altcoin market is not growing as much as expected. I think arbitrum price can hit 10$ in the bull run.

Any good layer 2 project mate to share with aside from Arb?  was checking this thread and see how much support you have guys from layer 2 project so i come to idea why not check them and try investing a little that I can risk .
maybe one of the best coin because there are lots of coins that is much better than arbitrum and we can see those in the market.

We cannot arrived on a conclusion concerning ArB for now, we still have a little more way to go before the bullrun, the coin may have the year to meet up and make new performance since everything is still under risk taking, this year halving is going to render out some opportunities for other currencies to make it up to their newest ATH for the sake of those going to experience their first all time high ever with this coming bullrun after halving.

I bought ARB coins when it was the best time to invest. I bought ARB coins above $1 but when the market went below $1 I sold them at a loss as needed. When I sold at a loss, ARB went over a dollar after a few days but I had already sold at a loss. However, there may still be a good time to invest in ARB or if someone thinks they will invest by buying from low levels, they can wait and buy when the market is dumping. However, when the Bitcoin market bull season begins, ARB could easily be $10.
