Dear Arbitrum Arbitrum Devs,
Your app is losing
users by the second

And here's why — plus what can you do about it.

Let’s start with a
simple story…

app.aave.com

Aave app interface
Aave USD Coin detail

Aave: Arbitrum

Wallet on Base

My funds: Base

what’s next?

  1. Go to a Bridge
  2. Select a token / chain – Check if you
    have enough balance on one token
  3. Approve and Bridge funds
  4. Come back to Aave
  5. See you have no gas
  6. Go to gas.zip to get some
  7. Again send txn
  8. And finally come back to Aave to do
    another transaction…
