<h3 id="span-style-font-weight-400-rolly-went-live-on-arbitrum-with-a-70-000-race-on-oct-28-span">Rolly went live on Arbitrum with a $70,000 race on Oct. 28</h3>
The launch of Rolly, a no-KYC crypto casino, on Arbitrum was on Oct. 28. It <a href="https://x.com/rolly_onchain/status/2115450854245384367" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> it had added $10 million to a public bankroll and started its first season with a “$70,000 race.”
The same day, Arbitrum’s <a href="https://x.com/arbitrum/status/2115454069560975401" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">account</a> welcomed it.
There is no public link between the number of addresses and Rolly. And Arbitrum has gone up and down earlier this month. On Oct. 23, it had 563,669 active addresses, but by Oct. 25, it had dropped to 97,267.
It logged just 95,545 on Sept. 26.
Growthepie keeps track of unique sending addresses every day, but not of recipients. Also, one person can have more than one wallet.
Growthepie said that sybil behavior, in which fake wallets pretend to be active during incentive campaigns or airdrops, can make the count go up. It suggests the number should be read along with chain revenue or total value secured.
