Odaily Planet Daily reports that the Arbitrum Foundation has released its 2025 Transparency Report, highlighting that traditional finance will accelerate its on-chain integration in 2025, propelling the ecosystem into the institutional adoption phase. The report reveals that 189 ecosystem partnerships were approved throughout the year, covering areas such as DeFi, infrastructure, and consumer applications. The report states that Arbitrum is evolving from an L2 solution into a comprehensive blockchain platform with a sustainable economic model:
In terms of institutional adoption, Robinhood has launched tokenized stocks and ETFs on Arbitrum, expanding to nearly 2,000 assets within six months. Institutions such as Franklin Templeton and WisdomTree have also intensified their involvement, driving a 7x year-over-year increase in on-chain RWA (Real-World Asset) scale, surpassing $800 million.
Regarding network data, Arbitrum's cumulative transaction volume has exceeded 2.1 billion, with a total value locked (TVL) of approximately $20 billion. Stablecoin supply has grown 80% year-over-year, peaking at nearly $10 billion, and the ecosystem now includes over 1,000 projects. Additionally, the Arbitrum chain ecosystem continues to expand, with over 100 chains launched or under development.
In terms of infrastructure and governance, Arbitrum is advancing ArbOS upgrades, the BoLD validation mechanism, and the Stylus development environment, while introducing mechanisms like Timeboost to broaden DAO revenue sources. In its first year, Timeboost generated over $6 million in revenue for the DAO.
