Arc Mainnet Live: Circle Launches Public Version with USDC Gas
Arc's public mainnet has launched with USDC as its gas asset, allowing transaction fees to remain dollar-denominated. The network provides deterministic sub-second settlement and is compatible with Ethereum's EVM and existing Solidity tooling.
Circle integrated USDC, EURC, Circle Payments Network, and stablecoin infrastructure directly into Arc. StableFX offers 24/7 programmable foreign-exchange settlement across supported stablecoins, while tokenized assets including USYC and BUIDL are part of the initial financial ecosystem.
Aero, fomo, Uniswap, Aave, Morpho, Pump.fun, Robinhood, 1inch, and Hibachi are providing day-one trading infrastructure. Over 100 validators from traditional finance, including BlackRock, DTCC, Galaxy, ICE, Mastercard, MoneyGram, SBI Group, Standard Chartered, Sumitomo Corporation, Visa, and Worldpay, have secured Arc.
