View submission: Scaling Reddit’s Community Points with Arbitrum
In order to get to the level of scale required for mainstream usage, there will likely be multiple Layer-2 networks built on top of Layer 1 blockchains. In this case, having an additional Arbitrum network means we can scale further than what a single network can.
We have been working closely with Offchain Labs (the team behind Arbitrum), and they are very supportive of us launching a separate network. In fact, they specifically named[1] their chain Arbitrum One to allow other chains to be deployed with Arbitrum as well.

Do you imagine that Reddit will ultimately have to launch multiple instances of Arbitrum to reach the line of scale you're talking about?
Does Reddit launching these instances bake in any additional trust or access assumptions?
