How is the market moving today?
Live editorial snapshot — numbers update on every refresh
Today's state: Arbitrum is trading at $0.212900 with a $1.2 billion market capitalization (rank #89). The price moved +1.00% over the past 24 hours and is -18.45% over 7 days; the 30-day move stands at -11.22% and the 90-day at +166.62%. Both long-term and short-term horizons are pointing the same direction down — historically the regime where forced selling and capitulation are most likely to be in their later stages.
Position vs cycle: A drawdown of more than 70% from the last cycle high puts the asset firmly in deep-bear territory, where recoveries have historically required a fresh demand catalyst rather than mere mean-reversion.
Volatility and structure: 30-day realized volatility of 195.4% annualized is extreme for an asset this size. Our composite multi-horizon Price Strength reads Neutral (58/100), with the timeframes pulling in different directions and no clean directional read.

Over the last day Arbitrum gained 1.00%, with its 7-day move 18.45% lower and its 30-day move 11.22% lower. Over the trailing 365 days, the asset has delivered losses of 70.98%, with a mixed multi-horizon profile and no clear directional bias.
The asset currently trades 91.1% below its all-time high — a deep drawdown in which momentum and liquidity flows have, historically, driven price more than any pull back toward the mean. 30-day realized volatility sits at 195% annualized — extreme territory for a crypto asset of this size.
Arbitrum currently shows deep order books and broad exchange coverage. 24-hour trading volume represents 23.648% of market capitalization — our liquidity-health composite scores this as Deep (100/100). This ratio is materially above the top-50 average, often indicating elevated speculative interest or an active news cycle.
The 90-day Pearson correlation of ARB's daily returns versus Bitcoin's is +0.43 — a moderate positive relationship. There is a meaningful but incomplete link between Arbitrum and Bitcoin; the asset has its own drivers too, which limits how much it dampens BTC-driven swings.

Per the STNews methodology, the projection above is built from three separate models:
- Technical model reads moving-average, ATR, Bollinger-band and trend-slope signals to set its ranges — it carries most weight in an orderly trend or range.
- Statistical (Monte Carlo) model uses the 90-day distribution of daily log returns to project the 5th, 50th and 95th percentile prices at each horizon — useful as an unbiased baseline that does not assume any trend continuation.
- Peer-relative model benchmarks the asset against similarly-sized coins in its category, asking where it would sit if it tracked the median, lower-quartile and upper-quartile peer returns — a sector-anchored sanity check.
The ensemble forecast shown is a weighted average (40% statistical · 30% technical · 30% peer-relative). The confidence badge reflects how closely the three models agree: tighter agreement → higher confidence; wider disagreement → lower confidence, indicating that the asset is in a regime where statistical models alone are unreliable.
Cross-asset correlations (90d)
Pearson correlation of daily log returns vs top L1 references
Looking past Bitcoin alone, how closely ARB tracks the next two biggest layer-1s over 90 days indicates whether it is mostly market beta or something more independent. The daily-log-return correlations:
- Bitcoin reference: +0.43 — a moderate positive relationship.
- Ethereum reference: +0.43 — a moderate positive relationship.
- Solana reference: +0.48 — a moderate positive relationship.
Strong correlation to multiple references typically indicates that the asset trades primarily as crypto-market beta — moves in BTC/ETH/SOL drive most of the price action, and stand-alone alpha is harder to capture. Weak or negative correlations indicate idiosyncratic drivers (project-specific news, sector rotation within crypto, or narrative shifts) that can produce returns uncorrelated with the broader market.
About Arbitrum
Arbitrum (ARB) is a Layer-2 scaling token, settling onto a base blockchain for security while delivering faster, cheaper transactions. It trades at $0.2129 as of the latest update, with a 24-hour move up 1.00%, placing it at rank #22 by market capitalisation among all listed digital assets. Arbitrum's current market cap stands at $1.15B, a figure used by traders, analysts and institutional desks to gauge relative liquidity and risk exposure across the crypto market.
On this page you'll find a live, daily-refreshed dashboard tracking Arbitrum across multiple data sources — price history going back several years, on-chain activity where available, fundamentals like circulating supply and dilution, top exchanges by volume, technical analysis using moving averages and RSI, and an algorithmic short, mid and long-term forecast. All figures are pulled from public APIs and cached locally; nothing here is investment advice.
Arbitrum is among the leading rollups settling to Ethereum, providing the cost-and-speed environment retail DeFi and applications increasingly demand. The L2 ecosystem has captured a meaningful share of Ethereum-equivalent transaction volume.
Arbitrum (ARB) is a top-100 asset, ranked #89 among all tracked tokens by capitalisation. About 54% of the maximum ARB supply is in circulation today (5.40B of 10.00B), leaving a moderate emission stream still to come. It currently trades about 91% below its all-time high of $2.40 set in January 2024, while sitting roughly 2.9× above its record low.
By market value Arbitrum (ARB) sits inside the top 100, trading at $0.2129000 as of the latest snapshot. ARB is +1.00% over 24 hours, -18.45% over the past week, -11.22% over 30 days, putting it among the weekly underperformers across the top 250 by market capitalisation. Arbitrum remains roughly 91% beneath its all-time high of $2.40, a level first printed in January 2024. Only 54% of ARB's eventual supply (5.40B of 10.00B) is currently in circulation — meaningful future dilution is built into the schedule and should be factored into long-term valuation.
Daily volume runs at about 20.7% of market capitalisation, in line with the active-trading band for a coin of this size. On a one-year view ARB has lost 71.0%, against a broader crypto-market backdrop that closed the period roughly flat after several volatile quarters.
How it works — Arbitrum
Arbitrum is a Layer-2 rollup that scales Ethereum: it executes transactions off-chain and posts compressed transaction data (and/or state proofs) back to Ethereum L1. This inherits Ethereum's security while delivering substantially cheaper transactions (typically 10–100× cheaper than L1).
Two main rollup categories: optimistic rollups assume transactions are valid and allow a challenge window for fraud proofs, while zk-rollups prove validity cryptographically. The native token typically pays for gas on the L2, secures sequencer auctions, and grants governance rights over upgrades.
Arbitrum (ARB) is a top-100 asset, ranked #89 among all tracked tokens by capitalisation. About 54% of the maximum ARB supply is in circulation today (5.40B of 10.00B), leaving a moderate emission stream still to come. It currently trades about 91% below its all-time high of $2.40 set in January 2024, while sitting roughly 2.9× above its record low. Its fully-diluted valuation of $2.03B is about 1.8× the circulating market cap of $1.15B, a gap that signals issuance overhang to factor into any longer-term thesis.
Use cases — Arbitrum
Primary use cases: cheap DeFi (the L2 host of choice for high-frequency strategies), retail-friendly application UX (lower fees enable consumer use cases not viable on L1), bridge destinations for capital seeking cheaper execution, and the substrate for emerging L2-native applications.
Daily turnover is unusually high at roughly 21% of market cap ($238.12M traded in 24 hours), the kind of liquidity that reflects an active news or trading cycle.
Tokenomics
Supply schedule & distribution
- Circulating supply: 5.40B ARB — tokens actively trading and held by the public
- Total supply: 10.00B ARB — all tokens minted to date (including those locked or held by the issuer)
- Max supply: 10.00B ARB — the protocol-defined upper limit (if any) on lifetime issuance
- Issued to date: 54% of max supply
- Locked / treasury: 46% of total supply
Arbitrum's supply schedule directly affects its long-term inflation rate and, by extension, how dilutive future issuance will be to existing holders. A coin near full dilution behaves very differently from one that still has 60% of its supply waiting to be unlocked.
Supply economics
Issuance pressure, dilution, and structural value accrual
To read Arbitrum's tokenomics, look at the issuance schedule, the share of supply already in circulation, and the gap between market cap and fully-diluted valuation. Approximately 54.0% of maximum supply is currently circulating, meaning roughly 46.0% of total potential supply remains to be issued. This implies a structural emission stream against current demand for the asset. The fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $2.0 billion stands at 1.8× the current circulating market cap of $1.2 billion. The wider this ratio, the more issuance overhang the asset faces — a structural headwind on valuation that mature assets like Bitcoin do not face but that early-cycle assets typically do.
Whether the tokenomics help or hurt comes down to value accrual versus dilution — fee burns, reinvested staking yield and TVL growth on one side, scheduled emissions on the other. A favourable balance lets price grind higher without hype; an unfavourable one means the asset must keep attracting demand just to absorb issuance.
Trader's note
Coin-type-aware tactical interpretation
For Arbitrum as an L2 rollup native token, the metrics that move price are L2 TVL share (this rollup's slice of total Ethereum L2 activity), daily transaction count, and the proportion of new applications launching here rather than on a competing rollup. Sequencer revenue eventually flows back to the token through buy-backs, fee-sharing, or burns, depending on protocol design — making revenue trajectory the most defensible long-term valuation anchor.
Price Strength at 58/100 reads neutral. L2 tokens carry idiosyncratic risks not present in L1 tokens: sequencer centralization, upgradeability risk, and competitive pressure from rival rollups. These risks can re-rate the asset sharply on protocol news, independent of broader market direction.

Market sentiment
Crypto Fear & Greed Index · alternative.me
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index aggregates volatility, market momentum, social media activity, dominance and Google Trends data into a single 0–100 score updated daily. Today's reading is 74 — Greed.
Extreme fear (below 25) historically signals buying opportunities for contrarians, while extreme greed (above 75) often precedes corrections. The index works best as one input among many, not as a standalone trading signal.
Macro & cross-asset context
How macro liquidity and cross-asset moves frame the trade
The macro backdrop for crypto assets is dominated by the Federal Reserve's rate path, the trajectory of dollar liquidity, and the unwind (or non-unwind) of the post-2020 expansion in M2 money supply. Crypto — Bitcoin in particular — has historically responded most strongly to shifts in the global liquidity regime, with risk-on phases coinciding with falling real yields and a softening dollar, and risk-off phases the inverse.
A handful of traditional gauges tend to lead or confirm crypto moves: the dollar index (strength is a headwind), the 10-year yield (the price of risk capital), gold (an occasional fellow-traveller in debasement trades), and the S&P 500 (which often moves with crypto when liquidity, not fundamentals, is in the driver's seat).
For Arbitrum specifically, the macro variable that has empirically led price most often is global crypto-market liquidity — proxied by stablecoin total supply, futures open interest, and exchange volumes. When these expand, ARB tends to follow; when they contract, the relationship typically reverses. Given the 90-day BTC correlation of +0.43, ARB's near-term macro sensitivity will be similar to Bitcoin's — driven primarily by the same liquidity conditions and risk-asset flows.
Risks
Specific risks: sequencer centralization (most rollups currently rely on a single sequencer the operator runs), upgradeability (admin keys can change rollup behavior), fraud-proof or validity-proof reliance (the security model depends on these working in practice), and ecosystem fragmentation across competing L2s.
