Arbitrum is an Optimistic Rollup protocol designed for the Ethereum blockchain. The Arbitrum Rollup chain is a super scaled Layer 2 (L2) chain, and interacting with Arbitrum feels exactly like interacting with Ethereum without compromising on security or decentralization, except:
Transactions are significantly faster.
Gas fees are significantly lower.
Note: Arbitrum's native token is also $ETH. To use your ETH on Arbitrum mainnet, you will need to bridge ETH from Ethereum Mainnet to Arbitrum One Mainnet.
Arbitrum has an official tutorial on bridging ETH from Ethereum Mainnet into Arbitrum.
To get started, you first need a Web3 wallet, such as Metamask.
Once Metamask has been Installed, you will need to add the Arbitrum One network.
From Metamask, click on your profile picture, and click on "Settings".
Click on "Networks - Add and edit custom RPC networks".
Click on "Add Network".
Use the following details to add Arbitrum One Mainnet to your Metamask.
Network Name: Arbitrum One Mainnet
Chain ID: 42161
Currency Symbol: ETH
Block Explorer URL: https://arbiscan.io
Head to the Arbitrum One Bridge:
Login to your Metamask account, and switch to your Arbitrum network.
Enter the amount of ETH you want to bridge over, and click on "Deposit".
Read the pop up alert, and click "Deposit" again.
To withdraw, please refer to "Bridging back to Mainnet".
Warning: Make sure to bridge additional ETH to pay for transactions on Arbitrum.
