Arbitrum launches a stablecoin growth program anchored on USDG, backed by a 2 million ARB incentive pool to drive liquidity and lending expansion in its DeFi ecosystem. The program aims for sustainable adoption beyond incentives by requiring protocols to commit to USDG liquidity targets to earn rewards.
