Weekly Japanese newsletter on Arbitrum DeFi updates, network news, and education aimed at growing the local DeFi community, with 360 subscribers since November 2022.

About Us

We operate a weekly newsletter specifically focused on Arbitrum DeFi for the Japanese Crypto community.

Main Contents

・We deliver Arbitrum-related news, such as the latest updates on DeFi protocols and network updates, in an easy-to-understand manner. ・We provide educational content related to DeFi.

Primary Objectives

・To spread information about Arbitrum in Japan. ・To increase the number of active DeFi users and Arbitrum fans.

Achievements to Date

・Launched in November 2022. ・Published 45 articles. ・Gained 360 subscribers. ・Accumulated 20,000 total page views. These figures may indeed seem small when compared to similar newsletters in the English DeFi community. However, given that the Japanese DeFi community is estimated to be approximately one-tenth the size of the English DeFi community, these numbers are not disproportionately small.

Grant Use

This grant will enable us to continue producing the Arbitrum Newsletter. We are still exploring ways to monetize, but we plan to continue offering the newsletter for free in order to maintain it as a public good.
