Arbitrum Orbit Overview
Arbitrum Orbit is an Optimistic rollup-based framework designed to empower web3 businesses by enabling the creation of custom, use case-specific Layer 2 (L2) or Layer 3 (L3) chains in a purely permissionless way. Orbit leverages the Arbitrum Nitro Tech stack, offering unparalleled scalability, advanced compression, full EVM compatibility, and soon-to-be-released cross-chain interoperability. Essentially, Arbitrum Orbit can be thought of as deployable and configurable instances of the Nitro stack, forming an ecosystem of independent chains.
Key Features of Arbitrum Orbit
