February 14 News, Arbitrum (ARB) has continued to face pressure in 2026, with a year-to-date decline of 40%. Looking back at 2025, its price once dropped over 70%, and now it has again hit a historic low. After falling below $0.20, almost all holders are in unrealized losses, and market confidence has clearly been affected.
Despite weak price performance, on-chain data shows subtle changes. According to DeFiLlama data, the total market value of stablecoins on the Arbitrum network increased slightly by about 2% this week, with nearly $65 million in new funds. Among them, USDC’s share rose to 56.8%, becoming the main supporting force. However, the network’s TVL remains at multi-month lows, indicating overall liquidity has not yet recovered, and on-chain buffer capacity remains weak.
Notably, there is a clear divergence between capital flows and price trends. Some capital is shifting toward sectors with long-term potential, providing new growth opportunities for the Arbitrum ecosystem. Recently, ETHZilla launched the Eurus Aero Token I on this network, allowing investors to participate in jet engine leasing income through tokenization, marking that real-world assets (RWA) are becoming a new driver of on-chain growth.
Currently, the overall RWA sector has approached a historic high of nearly $24.7 billion, with XAUT surpassing $6 billion, indicating sustained institutional interest in cash-flow-generating on-chain assets. Arbitrum’s entry into this field is expected to attract more long-term capital, bringing more stable funding sources to the network.
For ARB, this is not only about ecosystem expansion but also an important step in rebuilding trust. Although short-term prices may still fluctuate, the growth in stablecoin volume and the landing of RWA projects are building new value pillars for Arbitrum. Whether it can truly emerge from the lows in the future depends on whether these new growth engines can continue to generate real demand and capital inflows.

Analytical firm CryptoQuant points out that the "ultimate bottom" of this Bitcoin bear market is around $55,000.
