Just now, our $MATTER token has been bridged and is now live on the Arbitrum Network. You can now bridge your $MATTER token from the Ethereum Network (L1) to the Arbitrum Network (L2) to enjoy the scalability and low gas fee benefits.
We are excited for this integration, especially when it happens before our incoming Mainnet launch on Oct 8th, as it can ensure our users can enjoy the benefits of layer 2 at launch. We hope this integration will further increase the usability and ease of use of AntiMatter.
