Arbitrum's Withdrawal Upgrade Stalls as AlphaPepe Hits $2.5M
Arbitrum is planning to cut withdrawal times from days to hours on its network, but this upgrade is not yet live. The change would significantly improve the user experience for users of the Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution.
The update involves adding zero-knowledge proofs to Arbitrum's BoLD protocol, which aims to reduce the roughly seven-day withdrawal wait time down to a few hours. However, this plan still requires approval from the DAO and is not yet deployed on mainnet.
On the other hand, AlphaPepe is nearing $2.5 million in its presale before going public at a price of $0.02761. The token has live AI utility in AlphaSwap and AlphaAgent, two audits including one from BlockSAFU, three CEX listings secured, 400 million tokens locked on-chain, and a deflationary design.
AlphaPepe offers early investors a chance to join the project before its public listing, with a $1 target near 36x. In contrast, Arbitrum's upgrade is still in the proposal stage and does not guarantee an immediate price increase for the ARB token.
