Introducing Stylus Arbitrum Airdrop Contracts

Arbitrum Stylus brings a second, WebAssembly (WASM) virtual machine to every Arbitrum chain, so you can write contracts in Rust (or C/C++) while staying 100 % interoperable with existing Solidity code.

Under the hood, Stylus executes WASM thousands of times faster than the EVM, so transactions are metered in a new, much-smaller unit called ink rather than gas — translating to dramatic fee savings for compute- or memory-heavy logic.

To take advantage of the interoperability and fee savings, we are working with Arbitrum to bring you thirdweb contract developer tooling to Stylus

What's new?

• Airdrop tokens pre-built smart contracts available on Explore
  • Airdrop ERC-20
  • Airdrop ERC-721
  • Airdrop ERC-1155
• ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 token templates written in Stylus available to deploy through the CLI.

| Learn how to deploy and interact with Stylus contracts through thirdweb documentation

What's been available?

• Deploy contracts written with Stylus through the thirdweb

npx thirdweb deploy-stylus -k <YOUR SECRET KEY>

• Publish Stylus-written contracts through the thirdweb CLI

npx thirdweb publish-stylus -k <YOUR SECRET KEY>

• Interact with Stylus contracts using thirdweb SDKs.

Learn how to do this through the Stylus guide.

Stylus + thirdweb lets you trade Solidity’s familiar syntax for Rust’s performance without losing any of the tooling you love, and simplifies your deployment and tooling integration.

Coming Soon

We will be creating additional contracts with Stylus. If you are interested in being notified on release or have any feedback, please join our Telegram community and let us know.
