Overview
Arbitrum: Scalable, private smart contracts | USENIX Registration Information Registration Discounts Student and Diversity Grants Venue, Hotel, and Travel Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions Poster Session and Happy Hour Submission Policies and Instructions Instructions for Presenters Arbitrum: Scalable, private smart contracts Harry Kalodner, Steven Goldfeder, Xiaoqi Chen, S. Matthew Weinberg, and Edward W. Felten, We present Arbitrum, a cryptocurrency system that supports smart contracts without the limitations of scalability and privacy of systems previous systems such as Ethereum. Arbitrum, like Ethereum, allows parties to create smart contracts by using code to specify the behavior of a virtual machine (VM) that implements the contract's functionality. Arbitrum uses mechanism design to incentivize parties to agree off-chain on what a VM would do, so that the Arbitrum miners need only verify digital signatures to confirm that parties have agreed on a VM's behavior. In the event that the parties cannot reach unanimous agreement off-chain, Arbitrum still allows honest parties to advance the VM state on-chain. If a party tries to lie about a VM's behavior, the verifier (or miners) will identify and penalize the dishonest party by using a highly-efficient challenge-based protocol that exploits features of the Arbitrum virtual machine architecture. Moving the verification of VMs' behavior off-chain in this way provides dramatic improvements in scalability and privacy. We describe Arbitrum's protocol and virtual machine architecture, and we present a working prototype implementation. USENIX is committed to Open Access to the research presented at our events.

Arbitrum, like Ethereum, allows parties to create smart contracts by using code to specify the behavior of a virtual machine (VM) that implements the contract's functionality. Arbitrum uses mechanism design to incentivize parties to agree off-chain on what a VM would do, so that the Arbitrum miners need only verify digital signatures to confirm that parties have agreed on a VM's behavior. In the event that the parties cannot reach unanimous agreement off-chain, Arbitrum still allows honest parties to advance the VM state on-chain. If a party tries to lie about a VM's behavior, the verifier (or miners) will identify and penalize the dishonest party by using a highly-efficient challenge-based protocol that exploits features of the Arbitrum virtual machine architecture. Moving the verification of VMs' behavior off-chain in this way provides dramatic improvements in scalability and privacy. We describe Arbitrum's protocol and virtual machine architecture, and we present a working prototype implementation. USENIX is committed to Open Access to the research presented at our events.

Matthew Weinberg, and Edward W.

Arbitrum, like Ethereum, allows parties to create smart contracts by using code to specify the behavior of a virtual machine (VM) that implements the contract's functionality. Arbitrum uses mechanism design to incentivize parties to agree off-chain on what a VM would do, so that the Arbitrum miners need only verify digital signatures to confirm that parties have agreed on a VM's behavior. In the event that the parties cannot reach unanimous agreement off-chain, Arbitrum still allows honest parties to advance the VM state on-chain. If a party tries to lie about a VM's behavior, the verifier (or miners) will identify and penalize the dishonest party by using a highly-efficient challenge-based protocol that exploits features of the Arbitrum virtual machine architecture.

Arbitrum: Scalable, private smart contracts | USENIX Registration Information Registration Discounts Student and Diversity Grants Venue, Hotel, and Travel Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions Poster Session and Happy Hour Submission Policies and Instructions Instructions for Presenters Arbitrum: Scalable, private smart contracts Harry Kalodner, Steven Goldfeder, Xiaoqi Chen, S. Matthew Weinberg, and Edward W. Felten, We present Arbitrum, a cryptocurrency system that supports smart contracts without the limitations of scalability and privacy of systems previous systems such as Ethereum. Arbitrum, like Ethereum, allows parties to create smart contracts by using code to specify the behavior of a virtual machine (VM) that implements the contract's functionality. Arbitrum uses mechanism design to incentivize parties to agree off-chain on what a VM would do, so that the Arbitrum miners need only verify digital signatures to confirm that parties have agreed on a VM's behavior. In the event that the parties cannot reach unanimous agreement off-chain, Arbitrum still allows honest parties to advance the VM state on-chain. If a party tries to lie about a VM's behavior, the verifier (or miners) will identify and penalize the dishonest party by using a highly-efficient challenge-based protocol that exploits features of the Arbitrum virtual machine architecture. Moving the verification of VMs' behavior off-chain in this way provides dramatic improvements in scalability and privacy. We describe Arbitrum's protocol and virtual machine architecture, and we present a working prototype implementation. USENIX is committed to Open Access to the research presented at our events.

Arbitrum: Scalable, private smart contracts | USENIX Registration Information Registration Discounts Student and Diversity Grants Venue, Hotel, and Travel Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions Poster Session and Happy Hour Submission Policies and Instructions Instructions for Presenters Arbitrum: Scalable, private smart contracts Harry Kalodner, Steven Goldfeder, Xiaoqi Chen, S. Matthew Weinberg, and Edward W. Felten, We present Arbitrum, a cryptocurrency system that supports smart contracts without the limitations of scalability and privacy of systems previous systems such as Ethereum. Arbitrum, like Ethereum, allows parties to create smart contracts by using code to specify the behavior of a virtual machine (VM) that implements the contract's functionality. Arbitrum uses mechanism design to incentivize parties to agree off-chain on what a VM would do, so that the Arbitrum miners need only verify digital signatures to confirm that parties have agreed on a VM's behavior. In the event that the parties cannot reach unanimous agreement off-chain, Arbitrum still allows honest parties to advance the VM state on-chain. If a party tries to lie about a VM's behavior, the verifier (or miners) will identify and penalize the dishonest party by using a highly-efficient challenge-based protocol that exploits features of the Arbitrum virtual machine architecture. Moving the verification of VMs' behavior off-chain in this way provides dramatic improvements in scalability and privacy. We describe Arbitrum's protocol and virtual machine architecture, and we present a working prototype implementation. USENIX is committed to Open Access to the research presented at our events.

常见问题
- Arbitrum 白皮书是什么？
- Arbitrum 白皮书题为《Arbitrum：可扩展的私密智能合约》，描述了一种用于 Ethereum 扩容的乐观 Rollup 协议。该论文于 2018 年发表于 USENIX Security 会议，引入了用于链下计算验证的交互式欺诈证明机制。
- Arbitrum 白皮书由谁撰写，发布于何时？
- Arbitrum 白皮书由普林斯顿大学的 Harry Kalodner、Steven Goldfeder 等人撰写，于 2018 年发表。该技术由 Offchain Labs 商业化落地，联合创始人之一为 Ed Felten（前白宫副首席技术官）。
- Arbitrum 的核心技术创新是什么？
- Arbitrum 的核心创新是其交互式欺诈证明系统——争议通过多轮二分协议解决，最终缩小至单条指令，使得在 Ethereum L1 上的验证成本极低。
- Arbitrum 的 Rollup 机制如何运作？
- Arbitrum 将交易批量打包后在链下处理，并将压缩后的数据发布至 Ethereum L1。排序器对交易进行排序并发布状态承诺。在约 7 天的挑战期内，任何人均可通过发起欺诈证明来质疑不正确的状态根。
- Arbitrum 与 Optimism 有何不同？
- Arbitrum 采用交互式欺诈证明（多轮二分），而 Optimism 采用非交互式欺诈证明（单步重新执行）。Arbitrum 拥有自己的 AVM/WASM 执行环境，而 Optimism 使用改进版 EVM（OP Stack）。
- ARB 的供应模型是怎样的？
- ARB 总供应量为 100 亿枚，DAO 治理年通胀上限为 2%。分配比例包括：42.78% 归 DAO 国库，26.94% 归投资者，17.53% 归团队，12.75% 通过初始空投分发。
- Arbitrum 的主要应用场景有哪些？
- Arbitrum 是按 TVL 计算最大的 Ethereum L2，承载了主要 DeFi 协议（GMX、Camelot、Radiant）、NFT 项目和游戏。Arbitrum Orbit 支持项目基于 Arbitrum 技术栈启动 L3 链。
- Arbitrum 解决了什么问题？
- Arbitrum 通过在链下执行交易同时继承 Ethereum 安全性，解决了 Ethereum 高 gas 成本和有限吞吐量的问题。用户可享受比原链低 10-100 倍的费用，同时保持相同的智能合约兼容性。
- Arbitrum 的安全模型如何运作？
- Arbitrum 的安全性继承自 Ethereum L1——交易数据发布至 Ethereum，任意单个诚实验证者均可质疑不正确的状态根。7 天挑战期确保有足够时间检测欺诈行为。
- Arbitrum 生态系统现状如何？
- Arbitrum 是按 TVL 计算领先的 Ethereum L2。Arbitrum One（Rollup）、Arbitrum Nova（面向游戏/社交的 AnyTrust）、Stylus（WASM 智能合约）和 Orbit（L3 框架）共同构成了完整的扩容技术栈。ArbitrumDAO 负责协议治理。
