Offchain Labs, the initial developer of Arbitrum, the biggest Ethereum layer-2 network, announced “Fast Withdrawals” – described as “a new feature allowing select Orbit chains and RaaS providers to achieve withdrawal finality in under 15 minutes, compared to the usual wait time of up to seven days.” According to the team: “Implementing Fast Withdrawals cuts withdrawal times by over 90%, making the process extremely similar to withdrawing funds from a bank account. Although it is not identical, it represents a substantial improvement over the traditional blockchain standard, bringing it much closer to the experience of conventional TradFi funds transfer.” According to a press release, “Orbit chains that plan future support for the new feature include Apechain, Cheese, Nova, Sanko, Xai and others. RaaS providers include Offchain Labs, Alchemy, Altlayer, Ankr, Caldera, Conduit, and Gelato.” Here’s how it works, according to the press release:
