Stylus, the MultiVM solution designed by Ethereum layer-2 (L2) scaling solution Arbitrum just received a new facelift. Arbitrum Stylus welcomed the Giga Update on the mainnet as it plots a new era of enhanced functionalities. 
<h2 id="strong-benefits-of-arbitrum-stylus-update-strong">Benefits of Arbitrum Stylus Update</h2> 
According to the <a href="https://coingape.com/celestia-unveils-blobstream-for-enhanced-arbitrum-orbit-chains/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arbitrum protocol</a>, the Stylus Giga Update comes with 2 – 4x cheaper fees. This is a significant milestone considering that Arbitrum alongside other Ethereum L2 got boosted following the Dencun and <a href="https://coingape.com/atlas-upgrade-launches-on-arbitrum-slashes-layer-2-fees-with-blobs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Atlas Upgrades</a>. After the main Ethereum upgrade, transaction fees dropped significantly on many of these L2 outfits. 
The Giga Update on Arbitrum Stylus now implies that MultiVM innovators can do relatively more compared to the broader competition. Cheaper fees is notably one of 5 enhancements activated. As noted, the protocol will also record Contract size compression, Better tooling support, improved safety, and a new host for I/Os. 
It also expanded more on what the upgrade brings to the table. The protocol said the cheaper offering is made possible because of an introduced cache for initialization of smart contracts. Besides this, there is a dynamic activation of pricing policy alongside the charged 2-4x lower fees on most opcodes.

The size compression feature comes on the hills of the reduced contract sizes with custom Brotli dictionaries. While the update is sophisticated, developer consideration was put in view making any troubleshooting easier while building. 
The blockchain ecosystem is dynamic and most protocols tries to evolve. In the L2 space, the competition for dominance is intense with new entrants like Coinbase Exchange’s <a href="https://coingape.com/coinbase-l2-base-outshines-arbitrum-in-transaction-count/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Base outshining</a> the older ones in key metrics. This update might change the game for Arbitrum in the long term and positions it for more DApp introduction. 
If achieved, this can translate to more users and demand for ARB.

It is worth nothing that Arbitrum Stylus helps connect to multiple EVM outlets, thus serving as the gateway for functional interoperability. With the upside in experience and low cost for the end user, ARB might stand as the ultimate beneficiary of this upgrade in the long term. 
At the time of writing, the token is not reacting bullishly to the update. It is changing hands for $1.03, down by 2.84% in 24 hours. The token has soared from a low of $1.01 over the same time span to a high of $1.06 before settling at current level. 
With the new era launched, ARB has bigger prospects for growth in the new term.
