This Open House session, hosted by Arbitrum's evangelist Swagtimus and presented by OpenZeppelin engineer Daniel Bigos, introduces developers to building secure, high-performance Rust smart contracts using Arbitrum Stylus. The session covers the motivation behind Stylus, benefits of writing contracts in Rust, the new OpenZeppelin Stylus library, and a live walkthrough of setting up, compiling, and deploying a Rust-based smart contract. It’s a must-watch for developers looking to move beyond Solidity and explore the next evolution of secure and scalable contract development.
This video, presented by Arbitrum Developer Advocate Swagtimus, offers a comprehensive overview of Arbitrum's modular tech stack. It covers multi-VM support (EVM + WASM), the Stylus contract runtime, the Time Boost MEV auction mechanism, the Orbit SDK for custom chain development, and the Universal Intent Engine for cross-chain communication — showcasing how Arbitrum is building a flexible, secure, and scalable Layer 2 ecosystem.
