Enlargement program
In January, the Arbitrum Basis launched the Arbitrum Enlargement program to increase its Orbit Chain to different Ethereum-based chains.
This system allowed crypto initiatives to fork the Arbitrum codebase and tailor it to their enterprise wants whereas sharing 10% of their earnings with the broader Arbitrum ecosystem. These chains have gained vital adoption in latest months as they permit the event of extremely customizable throughput and governance-enabled networks.

The Basis said that expanding Orbit deployments may enhance ArbitrumDAO’s income and improve the dominance of Ethereum Digital Machines (EVM) and Stylus (EVM+).
The Basis additionally famous that limiting Orbit chains to solely Ethereum would possibly hinder the adoption of the Arbitrum Tech Stack as a result of different rollups proceed to deploy freely.
Arbitrum is one among Ethereum’s most intensive layer-2 scaling options with a complete worth locked (TVL) of $3.1 billion, in response to DeFiLlama knowledge.
