Arbitrum (ARB) extended its recovery on Thursday, climbing above $0.081 after erasing losses recorded earlier in the week.
The rally followed a major announcement from Offchain Labs co-founder Steven Goldfeder, who revealed that a portion of transaction fees generated by Robinhood Chain and other Arbitrum Layer 2 (L2) networks will be redirected to the broader Arbitrum ecosystem.
The announcement has boosted investor confidence by highlighting a sustainable revenue model that could strengthen the network’s long-term fundamentals, while improving technical indicators suggest ARB may have room for further gains.
Robinhood Chain revenue-sharing strengthens Arbitrum ecosystem
In a post on X, Offchain Labs co-founder and Arbitrum developer Steven Goldfeder disclosed that 10% of fees collected by Robinhood Chain and every other Arbitrum Layer 2 chain are allocated back to the Arbitrum ecosystem.
As enterprise adoption is heating up, Arbitrum is well positioned to capture revenue.
10% of fees collected on Robinhood Chain (and every other Arbitrum L2) go to the Arbitrum ecosystem — 8% to the tokenholder controlled treasury and 2% to fund development.
And of course 100%…

According to Goldfeder, 8% of those fees are directed to the tokenholder-controlled Arbitrum DAO treasury, while the remaining 2% is used to support ongoing network development.
He also noted that 100% of fees generated on Arbitrum One continue to flow directly into the Arbitrum treasury, further reinforcing the ecosystem’s long-term funding model.
The fee-sharing mechanism is viewed as a positive development for Arbitrum because it creates an ongoing source of revenue for governance, ecosystem expansion, and developer incentives. As enterprise adoption of Layer 2 networks accelerates, the model could significantly increase the value captured by the Arbitrum ecosystem over time.
Investors responded positively to the announcement, sending ARB more than 7% higher during Thursday’s trading session.
Technical outlook improves, but key resistance remains
ARB has recovered above $0.085, reversing the losses recorded over the previous three sessions.
However, the token still trades below several important moving averages, suggesting the broader trend has yet to turn decisively bullish.
The 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) remains well above the current price at $0.1409, underscoring the longer-term bearish structure.
Meanwhile, momentum indicators are beginning to stabilize. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is showing signs of improving momentum, while 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 sits between $0.0878 and $0.0891, where several technical barriers converge.
This area includes the 50-day EMA at $0.0878, a horizontal resistance level at $0.0883, and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $0.0891.
A successful breakout above this cluster could shift momentum further in favor of buyers and open the path toward the next resistance levels.
On the downside, the key support remains around $0.0705, which marks both the previous swing low and the primary Fibonacci support level.
Holding above this area would preserve the recent recovery. However, a daily close below $0.0705 could invalidate the current rebound and expose ARB to another leg lower despite improving momentum indicators.
For now, traders will be watching whether growing ecosystem revenues and stronger investor sentiment can help ARB break above the critical $0.09 resistance zone and build a more sustained recovery.
