Pendle's yield markets have secured $202M in AMM liquidity on Arbitrum - surpassing all other Layer 2 networks and alternative Layer 1 blockchains combined.
This milestone demonstrates how complex DeFi primitives scale when they access:
- Deep, active capital pools
- Predictable transaction costs
- Reliable execution infrastructure
Arbitrum's platform architecture enables DeFi protocols to achieve product-market fit through consistent liquidity depth and operational efficiency. The network's combination of throughput capacity and economic predictability creates an environment where sophisticated yield products can operate at scale.
Pendle's concentration of liquidity on Arbitrum reflects broader institutional preferences for platforms that support structured financial products with minimal execution risk.
Institutions want regulated origination and portfolio-ready tokenized credit Arbitrum enables this with infra built for structured RWA products, scalable distribution & predictable economics Congrats to @nashpointfi on partnering with Asia’s leading RWA distributor @DigiFTTech
We’re partnering with @DigiFTTech to bring their regulated tokenized credit into onchain portfolio infrastucture, powered by @arbitrum. DigiFT provides issuance and distribution of tokenized credit. Nashpoint turns those assets into structured, diversified portfolios that can be
Deep, shared liquidity is what turns tokenized commodities into real financial products Perp businesses like @OstiumLabs are already proving it: - $665M perp volume (7D) - $222M open interest - 20K+ active users The platform where all tokenized assets reach PMF is Arbitrum
Design freedom is critical for businesses to reach product-market fit onchain On Arbitrum, perps like @OstiumLabs have access to deep liquidity, predictable costs and fast confirmations Result: tokenized commodities find PMF on trusted platform's like Arbitrum
another day, another new ATH for ostium > $206k in revenue L24H ($75M annualized) > broke $300m in RWA open interest > half a billion in daily volume > new ATH in new users trade the commodities supercycle onchain.
Complex DeFi primitives thrive where active capital live Pendle is a clear example: its yield markets hold $202M AMM liquidity on Arbitrum - more than any other L2 + alt L1s When DeFi businesses get deep liquidity, predictable costs & reliable execution, they scale on Arbitrum
Spiko adding $300M of RWA TVL to Arbitrum highlights a bigger trend: Tokenization grows fastest on platforms built for it with predictable fees, high-throughput execution and deep liquidity Arbitrum is becoming the preferred environment for institutional-grade credit products
To date, Spiko has brought ~$300 million of RWA TVL to @arbitrum, growing ~100% over the past six months. A great example of how RWA-focused fintechs like @Spiko_finance can act as net capital importers for L2 ecosystems.
Tokenization is one of crypto’s real financial markets @Morpho crossing $750M in RWA deposits shows it with syrupUSDC ($166M) on Arbitrum as the top asset Tokenized assets need reliability, throughput, and low costs. That’s why businesses are choosing Arbitrum’s platform
Soooo... We haven't talked much about it, but total deposits on RWA-related markets have crossed $750m on @Morpho, making it the biggest RWA market out there 🙈
Fast tokenization adoption happens on platforms that offer: - Design freedom - Deep liquidity - Predictable costs On Arbitrum, Spiko’s EUTBL + USTBL tokenized products now sit at $273M+ in TVL - the most adopted When businesses plug into platforms like Arbitrum, PMF follows
Arbitrum ArbOS 51 DIA Upgrade Introduces Multi-Tier Gas Targets
Arbitrum's **ArbOS 51 DIA upgrade** introduces a significant change to its gas pricing mechanism, moving from a single gas target to **six distinct gas targets**. **Key Changes:** - Gas processing capacity expanded from 7 Mgas/s to multiple tiers: **10/14/20/29/41/60 Mgas/s** - Designed to deliver **lower gas prices during network congestion** - Aims to provide smoother, more predictable execution environments for institutional users The upgrade focuses on improving throughput and gas price stability, particularly beneficial for enterprise applications requiring consistent performance. The multi-tier approach allows the network to scale more efficiently based on demand, rather than operating at a fixed capacity. This represents a technical evolution in how Arbitrum manages network resources and pricing during varying levels of activity.
