Our team has been hard at work adding incredible features to the Arbitrum stack. Lots more to share on this soon.
And I'll end with a prediction: you'll be able to write Rust contracts alongside Solidity on Arbitrum before we see a true, full-featured production zkEVM.

We spent $3,201,564.24 on cloud in 2022 at @37signals, mostly AWS. $907,837.83 on S3. $473,196.30 on RDS. $519,959.60 on OpenSearch. $123,852.30 on Elasticache. This is with long commits (S3 for 4 years!!), reserved instances, etc. Just obscene. Will publish full accounting soon.

web3 created many expectations that crypto-powered apps would replace all web2 companies/apps. (not true).
it also inspired an immune response from smart web2 people, who otherwise might have been open minded to the technology

I've been noticing more and more people talk about . When that happens to a protocol its often a lot of shills and bots, but the arbitrum community seems to be all real - high quality conversation, shilling building, and no weird hype. It's a pleasure to see.
