The Arbitrum Stablecoin Growth Program is now open to protocols with at least $1M in stablecoin balances. Eligible protocols that commit to building with USDG as their primary stablecoin may be eligible for performance based incentives from the Arbitrum Foundation as they grow. The first 10 teams in the program to reach $10M in TVL will each receive an additional 200K ARB from a 2M ARB prize pool.

Builders drive the demand for onchain dollars. The Arbitrum Stablecoin Growth Program is designed to support the teams that bring that demand to Arbitrum. Protocols that make USDG their preferred stablecoin, collateral or on-ramp asset on the Arbitrum Platform can access incentives and ecosystem support to help them grow, without the cost and complexity of issuing their own stablecoin.
The Arbitrum Platform is home to an established DeFi and blockchain ecosystem, with deep liquidity, active markets and teams building across a large variety of categories. The Arbitrum Stablecoin Growth Program gives protocols an opportunity to tap into this ecosystem while growing their own products. Whether you’re expanding an existing protocol or bringing a new deployment to Arbitrum, the program is designed to help teams attract liquidity, increase usage and build for the long term.
Launching and maintaining a stablecoin introduces additional operational, technical and business considerations. By integrating USDG as a primary stablecoin, protocols can focus on their core product while participating in a program designed to support stablecoin adoption
across Arbitrum, with the opportunity to earn more as their stablecoin activity on Arbitrum grows.
Teams can build stablecoin utility directly into their existing products, from lending markets and liquidity pools to payments and other financial applications, while working toward their own growth objectives.
What teams get
Accepted teams may be eligible for performance based incentives linked to their growth on the Arbitrum Platform, and they can put them straight back into their own growth.
Teams may also receive access to Arbitrum’s support suite, which may include marketing resources and co-marketing, introductions to ecosystem partners, integration and technical support, direct access to the ecosystem team, and potential access to incentives through the DeFi Renaissance Incentive Program (DRIP), as well as other perks.
The program also includes a 2M ARB prize pool. The first 10 teams to reach $10M in TVL, measured as a 30-day average, will each receive 200K ARB, in addition to the incentives and support above.
