Known as an ERC20 network layer-2 scaling solution, Arbitrum has demonstrated many advantages in reducing transaction fees and increasing processing speed on-chain. That’s also why LuxWorld has chosen Arbitrum to continue our journey. In this article, we’ll guide you on the easiest way to connect to the Arbitrum network and add the LUX token on MetaMask. Let’s get started!
Why LuxWorld choose Arbitrum as a new home?
Since the launch of the LUX token and trading on the CEX exchange, LuxWorld’s development team has received a lot of feedback from users about high gas fees and slow transaction processing speeds, especially during peak times. After researching solutions, we have decided to choose Arbitrum — the Ethereum Layer 2 scaling network to become our new home. From now on, large amounts of gas fees will be significantly reduced to just a few cents. Transaction processing speed has also been resolved while ensuring the security and decentralization of Ethereum’s L1.
How to connect Arbitrum and add LUX token on MetaMask?
MetaMask currently supports many networks Ethereum, BSC… In some updates, MetaMask has also provided Arbitrum network as default. But, if Arbitrum network is not already on your wallet, we will help you to add it manually through a few simple steps:

The process of bridging assets between Arbitrum and other chains is also convenient, with fewer transactions and lower gas fees than ERC20. To send LUX from Ethereum layer 1 to Arbitrum layer 2, follow these steps:
