In this guide, we'll explain the process of adding the Arbitrum token (ARB) to your Trust Wallet. There are multiple ways to get Arbitrum into your wallet, but in this guide we’ll cover three.

Let’s get started!

What is Trust Wallet?

Trust Wallet is the simple-to-use, self-custody crypto wallet and gateway to Web3 for people who want to fully own, control, and leverage the power of their digital assets. From beginners to experienced users, Trust Wallet makes it simpler, safer, and convenient for millions of people around the world to experience Web3, store and manage their crypto and NFTs, buy, sell, and stake crypto to earn rewards, and access dApps securely—all in one place. Trust Wallet is available as a mobile app, and also as the Trust Wallet Chrome Extension.

What is Arbitrum?

Arbitrum is an innovative scalability solution for the Ethereum network that significantly speeds up transactions and reduces costs. This is achieved through its Layer 2 scaling protocol which processes transactions off the Ethereum main chain, thereby mitigating congestion and fee issues.

At the heart of Arbitrum is Optimistic Rollup technology, which allows it to handle more transactions off-chain while maintaining a secure connection to Ethereum's main chain. The system optimistically assumes that transactions are valid until proven otherwise, ensuring high security standards.

Fully compatible with Ethereum, it enables developers to port existing dApps onto Arbitrum with minimal modifications, offering a practical solution to Ethereum's scalability problem. This combination of enhanced transaction efficiency, security, and easy integration makes Arbitrum a powerful tool for the future of decentralized applications (dApps).

Below we’ll go through three ways of adding the Arbitrum (ARB) token to your Trust Wallet.

Sometimes you might find that your ARB tokens don’t appear in Trust Wallet when you expect them to. For example if you imported an existing wallet or if you deposited ARB tokens.

This is a simple process and below we’ll outline how to do this in the mobile app and browser extension.
