funding on Arbitrum
Arbitrum is an Ethereum layer-two (L2) scaling solution that uses optimistic rollups to improve speed, scalability and cost-efficiency on Ethereum. it inherits the security and compatibility of Ethereum, but offers higher throughput and lower fees by moving most of the computation and storage off-chain. handle.fi is built on Arbitrum in order to bring these features to our traders. this means that you need to have assets on the Arbitrum network in order to trade.
Arbitrum uses ETH as the native currency to pay for transactions, including to manage trades on handle.fi
to move your assets to Arbitrum, you have several options. the official way is to use the Arbitrum bridge, which takes around 10 minutes. you can also use a third party bridge that connects other chains to Arbitrum. however, be careful with any bridge - always check the link from the official source before using it. some of the third party bridges are:
