Arc: A Layer 1 Dedicated to Stablecoins Launched by Circle

How to Participate in Circle's Native Chain Arc Testnet Interaction?

Arc is a next-generation EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain launched by the "first stock of stablecoins," Circle, aiming to build the economic operating system of the internet, deeply integrating programmable stablecoins with on-chain financial innovation. Arc is designed for financial applications, focusing on global payments, forex, lending, and capital markets, with the goal of providing a secure, low-cost, compliant, and scalable foundational settlement layer for the internet's programmable money.

Arc aims to address the three major pain points faced by existing public chains in enterprise and institutional-grade financial applications: inadequate high-frequency transaction performance, lack of privacy and compliance support, and excessive transaction fee volatility. By optimizing its architecture and introducing a stable fee model, Arc will achieve efficient financial-grade transaction experiences and drive stablecoins from being just a "digital dollar" towards becoming the core infrastructure for global payments, lending, forex, and capital markets.
