Arbitrum Orbit integrates NEAR data availability layer

ChainCatcher news, the NEAR Foundation announced that its NEAR Data Availability layer (NEAR DA) is now available for Arbitrum Orbit, a tech stack that allows developers to launch their own configurable lightweight chains based on Arbitrum's technology. Arbitrum Orbit is a platform that provides L2/L3 scaling solutions for Ethereum, enabling developers to build dedicated chains with their own configurations. By integrating NEAR DA, lightweight chain builders can benefit from lower data availability costs, significantly reducing the overall overhead of lightweight chains.
