Arbitrum's total value locked (TVL) has increased by over 60% since June 2025, reaching $3.62 billion as of September 23, 2025. This surge is attributed to significant capital inflows into its DeFi ecosystem, bolstered by stablecoin liquidity and high decentralized exchange (DEX) trading volumes. The network reported nearly $987 million in 24-hour DEX trading volume, while the stablecoin market value on Arbitrum has climbed to $36.5 billion. The expansion of Arbitrum's ecosystem is further underscored by whale accumulation and the introduction of NodeOps' SLA-based protocol. These developments highlight the growing interest and activity within the network, positioning Arbitrum as a key player in the DeFi space.
