The arbitrarum puts in full steam on the def. No senseless records, no statistics. Instead, these are real actions that pump life into the ecosystem. It is the Arbitrum plan that has started with the DEFI Renaissance incentive Program (DRIP) program worth 80 million ARB, or about USD 40 million. The program, designed by entropy Advisors and powered by Merkl, has a clear purpose. Make an arbitrarum to become a default leader. And it looks like they are doing it with their heads.
Season 1
The first season of DRIP focuses on the so -called LEVERAGE LOOPING as part of Loans at Arbitrum One. What is it about? You put in Yield-Bearing Assets (e.g. Syrunusdc), borrow usdc, turn them into more syrup and repeat the process. The more you borrow in every 2-week era, the more ARB you get. Easy? Easy. But not without risk, but more on that in a moment.
The program is based on performance and is neutral. It does not favor any specific project, but rewards the demand for loans in various lending markets and assets. The idea is to organically attract liquidity to the arbitrarum and strengthen his position as a default king. Your awards depend on the time -weighted average of the loan amount in a given era. In some supermarkets you can also earn on providing ETH (WETH) or USDC – you can find everything on the DRIP website.
Start: September 3, 2025
End: January 20, 2026
Budget: Up to 24 million ARB
Duration: 20 weeks (10 eras for 2 weeks)
How does it work?
Drip was divided into phases. The first two eras is the “recognition” phase, and only 15% of the budget goes to prizes to determine Baseline. Then comes the Performance-Based mode, i.e. projects and supermarkets that are doing better, get a larger piece of cake. Weaker? Less. Most of the budget will be distributed in this second, more competitive phase.
How to start?
You don’t have to sign up, all you need is a wallet and means on the Arbitrum One network.
- Pour the assets – Use the bridge to upload qualifying assets on the arbitrarum One.
- Choose Market – Check the possibilities at arbitmentrip.com.
- Deposit the collateral – Put Yield-Bearing Eth or Stablecoin from the list.
- Borrow and loopJ – borrow ETH or USDC, depending on the market.
- Watch out for the risk – The loops can be liquidated if the prices move or interest rates jump. Follow LTV and Health Factor. Drip will not cover the losses, so you have to watch yourself how the situation develops.
- Receive prizes – After each era, the ARB awards are separated by Merkl based on your commitment. You can pick them up for 3 months after the end of the season (January 20, 2026).
- Be up to date – Check Dashboards entropy Advisors and allocations for subsequent eras on the DRIP website to maximize profits.
Drip is not a corpo-program. It is a fully social project created by Advisors, approved by Arbitrumdao. In a world where everyone complains about the centralization, the arbitration gives power to users. This is not only a program for an encouragement, but more like a decentralization manifesto. Do you want to be part of this revolution? Jump on arbitrumdrip.com and start looping.
Attention: DEFI is not a sandpit. Looping is fun with the lever, so if something goes wrong, you can lose more than you put on. Before you start, make sure you know what you are doing. The arbitrum gives tools, but you keep the steering wheel and you must remember to follow your rules.
