Arbitrum (ARB) extended its recovery on Thursday, rising above $0.081 after erasing losses recorded earlier in the week.
The rally comes after Offchain Labs co-founder Steven Goldfeder announced that a portion of trading fees generated by Robinhood Chain and other Arbitrum layer 2 (L2) networks would be redirected to the broader Arbitrum ecosystem.
The announcement boosted investor confidence by highlighting a sustainable revenue model that could strengthen the network’s long-term fundamentals, while improving technical indicators suggest ARB has room for further gains.
Strengthening Arbitrum Ecosystem with Robinhood Chain Revenue Sharing
Steven Goldfeder, co-founder of Offchain Labs and Arbitrum developer, said in a post on
As enterprise adoption heats up, Arbitrum is well-positioned to capitalize.
10% of fees collected from Robinhood Chain (and all other Arbitrum L2s) go to the Arbitrum ecosystem. 8% goes to a treasury managed by token holders and 2% goes to development funds.
And of course 100%…

According to Goldfeder, 8% of those fees will go to the Arbitrum DAO treasury, which is managed by token holders, and the remaining 2% will be used to support ongoing network development.
He also noted that 100% of the fees generated by Arbitrum One will continue to flow directly into the Arbitrum treasury, further strengthening the ecosystem’s long-term funding model.
The fee sharing mechanism is considered a positive development for Arbitrum as it creates a continuous revenue stream for governance, ecosystem expansion, and developer incentives. As enterprise adoption of layer 2 networks accelerates, this model can significantly increase the value captured in the Arbitrum ecosystem over time.
Investors reacted positively to the announcement, sending ARB up more than 7% during Thursday’s trading session.
Technical outlook improves, but major resistance remains
ARB recovered above $0.085, reversing losses recorded over the previous three sessions.
However, the token is still trading below several important moving averages, suggesting that the broader trend has not yet turned decisively bullish.
The 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) remains well above the current price of $0.1409, highlighting the long-term bearish structure.
Meanwhile, momentum indicators are starting to stabilize. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is showing signs of improving momentum, and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is hovering near 50, indicating that selling pressure is easing without confirming a full bullish reversal.
The first major resistance zone is between $0.0878 and $0.0891, where several technical barriers converge.
This area includes the 50-day EMA at $0.0878, the horizontal resistance level at $0.0883, and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $0.0891.
A successful break through this cluster could shift the momentum more in favor of buyers and pave the way for the next resistance level.
On the downside, key support remains at around $0.0705, marking both the previous swing low and basic Fibonacci support.
Holding above this area could sustain the recent recovery. However, a daily close below $0.0705 could nullify the current bounce and send ARB down a notch despite improving momentum indicators.
For now, traders will be watching to see if rising ecosystem returns and stronger investor sentiment can help ARB break above the critical $0.09 resistance area and build a more sustained recovery.
