Arbitrum 向樂天集團提供有史以來最大的開發者資助，以鞏固其 Metaverse 遊戲平台 Caliverse

Arbitrum 是以太坊之上最大的第 2 層網絡，已向價值數十億美元的韓國企業集團樂天集團授予其有史以來最大的開發者資助

South Korean conglomerate Lotte Group has received the largest-ever developer grant from Arbitrum, the biggest layer-2 network on top of Ethereum.

韓國企業集團樂天集團已獲得 Arbitrum 有史以來最大的開發者資助，Arbitrum 是以太坊之上最大的第 2 層網路。

The grant will see Arbitrum become the main blockchain infrastructure provider for Caliverse, Lotte's metaverse gaming platform.

這筆撥款將使 Arbitrum 成為樂天元宇宙遊戲平台 Caliverse 的主要區塊鏈基礎設施提供者。

Offchain Labs, the developer behind Arbitrum, shared the news at CES 2025, the technology tradeshow currently taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Arbitrum 背後的開發商 Offchain Labs 在內華達州拉斯維加斯舉行的 CES 2025 科技貿易展上分享了這個消息。

A representative for the company declined to share the exact size of the grant "at this stage."

該公司的一位代表拒絕透露「現階段」的具體撥款金額。

The grant was technically awarded by the Arbitrum Foundation, a non-profit organization that periodically doles out grants in $ARB tokens to help spur development in the Arbitrum ecosystem.

從技術上講，這筆贈款是由 Arbitrum 基金會授予的，該基金會是一個非營利組織，定期以 $ARB 代幣形式發放贈款，以幫助刺激 Arbitrum 生態系統的發展。

"Lotte is Arbitrum Foundation's largest grant recipient to date. And we're proud to be working with partners so closely aligned with our vision," said John Park, Head of Korea at The Arbitrum Foundation.

「樂天是 Arbitrum 基金會迄今為止最大的資助得主。我們很自豪能夠與與我們的願景如此緊密契合的合作夥伴合作，」Arbitrum 基金會韓國負責人 John Park 說道。

The integration could signal renewed interest from traditional companies in building blockchain-based virtual worlds, a concept that garnered mainstream attention a few years ago but has since become less top-of-mind for many technologists and investors.

此次整合可能標誌著傳統公司對建立基於區塊鏈的虛擬世界重新產生了興趣，這一概念幾年前引起了主流關注，但此後已不再成為許多技術專家和投資者的首要考慮因素。

Lotte first showed interest in releasing metaverse-related products in 2022 and announced that it was entering a "strategic partnership" with Arbitrum last year.

樂天首次展現有興趣在 2022 年發布虛擬宇宙相關產品，並於去年宣布與 Arbitrum 建立「戰略合作夥伴關係」。

Caliverse is a platform where Lotte experiments with emerging tech trends like artificial intelligence, virtual reality and crypto.

Caliverse 是樂天試驗人工智慧、虛擬實境和加密等新興技術趨勢的平台。

Caliverse users can explore virtual worlds that feature different kinds of media content and futuristic shopping experiences.

Caliverse 用戶可以探索具有不同類型媒體內容和未來購物體驗的虛擬世界。

The app currently features content from a grab-bag of big brands, ranging from 7-Eleven to the Tomorrowland music festival. Much of the content on Caliverse comes from fashion and beauty companies like Givenchy, MCM, and L’Occitane.

該應用程式目前提供來自大品牌的內容，從 7-11 到 Tomorrowland 音樂節。 Caliverse 上的大部分內容來自紀梵希 (Givenchy)、MCM 和歐舒丹 (L'Occitane) 等時尚和美容公司。

Users can currently shop for those brands or experience concerts and other kinds of media within the Caliverse app.

用戶目前可以在 Caliverse 應用程式中購買這些品牌或體驗音樂會和其他類型的媒體。

The new integration with Arbitrum will mean that blockchain users will be able to pay for certain services using crypto, and systems like in-game transactions could start running on-chain.

與 Arbitrum 的新整合將意味著區塊鏈用戶將能夠使用加密貨幣來支付某些服務的費用，並且遊戲內交易等系統可以開始在鏈上運行。

The Arbitrum blockchain has become a popular choice among gaming platforms, with the network experiencing a 72% year-over-year growth in 2024 for gaming, according to Offchain Labs.

據 Offchain Labs 稱，Arbitrum 區塊鏈已成為遊戲平台中的熱門選擇，該網路的遊戲數量在 2024 年將同比增長 72%。

According to a press release the company shared with CoinDesk, Arbitrum currently hosts 119 game titles and 23 gaming-focused blockchains through its Arbitrum Orbit stack, a customizable toolkit that lets developers create their own blockchains based on Arbitrum’s technology.

根據該公司與CoinDesk 分享的新聞稿，Arbitrum 目前透過其Arbitrum Orbit 堆疊託管119 款遊戲和23 個以遊戲為中心的區塊鏈，Arbitrum Orbit 堆疊是一個可自訂的工具包，可讓開發人員基於Arbitrum的技術創建自己的區塊鏈。

“Arbitrum’s blockchain is the ideal home ground for Lotte Caliverse, delivering industry-leading 250ms block times that ensure high-quality performance within virtual worlds and gaming experiences,” said Steven Goldfeder, the co-founder and CEO of Offchain Labs.

Offchain Labs 聯合創始人兼首席執行官 Steven Goldfeder 表示：“Arbitrum 的區塊鏈是 Lotte Caliverse 的理想大本營，提供業界領先的 250 毫秒區塊時間，確保虛擬世界和遊戲體驗的高品質性能。”

“With Arbitrum now powering Lotte Caliverse, in-game transactions will be seamlessly integrated on-chain and will eliminate transaction latency, providing users with a smooth, consumer-friendly experience that sets a new standard for Arbitrum-based interactions in virtual worlds.”

「隨著Arbitrum 現在為Lotte Caliverse 提供支持，遊戲內交易將在鏈上無縫集成，並消除交易延遲，為用戶提供流暢、消費者友好的體驗，為虛擬世界中基於Arbitrum 的交互樹立新標準。 」
