Understanding Arbitrum’s Timeboost Priority Bidding and Converge RWA Chain

• Arbitrum adds Timeboost for faster transactions via private mempool bidding.  
• Converge blockchain launched to process $7B in tokenized assets with stablecoin gas fees.  
• Converge offers 100ms block times, sENA staking, and multi-language smart contract support.

The Arbitrum project has launched Timeboost, a new way to order transactions, on its Arbitrum One and Nova networks. The system adds ‘express lane’ bidding for faster transaction processing, while keeping the network’s mempool private.

At the same time Arbitrum rolled out Timeboost, it also announced Converge – a new, separate blockchain designed specifically for tokenized real-world assets, or RWAs, and decentralized finance (DeFi). These moves mark a major step in Arbitrum’s infrastructure expansion as activity heats up across Ethereum Layer 2s.

Timeboost is now live on Arbitrum One and Nova.

This new transaction ordering policy allows users to bid for express lane access, which provides faster transaction inclusion while maintaining Arbitrum a private mempool.
