Introducing the ARC whitepaper.
The paper outlines how ARC could serve as the native coordination asset of the Arc network, supporting security, economic governance, fee mechanics, and broader platform utility as Arc evolves.
The core idea: stablecoins move value. Arc provides the execution environment. ARC could help coordinate the participants who depend on the network.

I’m going to be spotlighting projects posted in our “Agentic Economy” group in Arc House!
“What do AI agents actually buy when nobody's watching?”
Check out the perspective of @mous68881 and the team of @Meridian_Fi

🚨New Group Alert🚨
The new Agentic Economy group is live in Arc House.
A dedicated space to explore everything agentic on @arc from the docs, the Arc Escrow sample app, quickstarts, forum discussions, and new content, all in one place.
Join the group, start building, and help shape what’s next

Applications for the Circle Developer Grants Program are now open.
We’re funding high-caliber teams building production-ready systems on Arc with USDC and the Circle Developer Platform across payments, treasury, FX, the agentic economy, and more.
We’re looking for strong integrations, clear paths to users and usage, and systems that expand USDC utility.

This is what great developer support looks like. The Arc team , thanks to @hj_chen , followed up their live ArcShop on Gateway with detailed written answers to every question builders asked, including edge cases around agent wallets, batching, and cross-chain balance flows.
If you're building 💻 on @arc this is worth reading. Clean answers, real technical depth, no fluff. This kind of responsiveness is what helps builders ship faster.

LI.FI is now live on @arc as a provider for swap experience in App Kits.
Developers can use App Kits to integrate stablecoin and native token swaps on major chains in under 10 lines of code.
Swap functionality, powered by LI.FI.
Arc 🤝 LI.FI
@lifiprotocol is delivering crosschain liquidity and routing infrastructure for developers building on Arc.
This gives builders a simpler way to move assets and users across chains without stitching together separate bridges and DEXs.
→ Unified access to bridges, DEXs, and liquidity sources
→ Bridging and swapping in a single flow
→ Faster paths to chain-agnostic app experiences
Arc is built for multichain applications from day one.
Most onchain payments still carry too much friction.
Our open-source Peer-to-Peer Payments App shows what a simpler experience can look like on Arc.
Send and receive USDC with sub-second finality, with USDC as the native gas token:
→ No extra tokens to manage
→ No unnecessary payment friction
→ A cleaner path to fast, intuitive onchain transfers

Had a really good Q&A session at last week's Arcshop where we had a technical deep-dive on Gateway. Here is the follow-up list of questions and answers I didn't get to on the day.

Capital markets shouldn’t run on delay.
On Arc:
→ Atomic delivery-versus-payment
→ Real-time margin and collateral updates
→ Corporate actions executed as code
With Arc, 24/7 real-time settlement becomes possible.
Arc 🤝 Dynamic
@dynamic_xyz is delivering seamless onboarding and authentication infrastructure for developers building on Arc.
This gives builders the tools to create intuitive user experiences without giving up self-custody.
→ Embedded wallets and signing flows
→ Customizable social and email onboarding
→ Flexible wallet infrastructure built for scale
Arc is built for adoption. Designed for real users from day one.
Institutions already see the upside of DeFi.
Transparency.
Global liquidity.
Fewer intermediaries.
What’s missing is infrastructure they can actually use and pathways to onboard them in a way that grows the pie, not just competes for the same users.
At Arc Studio, @Morpho Co-Founder @MerlinEgalite shared what it will take to bring institutions onchain.
Arc supports tokenized assets for real-world markets.
Deterministic finality gives settlement a clear endpoint.
Stablecoin-denominated execution keeps costs predictable.
And the core primitives are designed to support compliance and control from day one.
Tokenization becomes more useful when ownership is programmable, liquidity can be managed without freezing assets, and settlement reduces capital lockup and operational drag.
Arc supports these capabilities with infrastructure for transferable RWAs, token-level compliance logic, and lifecycle automation for redemptions, distributions, and corporate actions.

→ P2P payments
→ QR pay
→ Merchant checkout
→ Batched settlement
→ The merchant API and widget behind it

69 teams built on Arc during ETHGlobal Cannes.
What stood out:
→ 98% built agentic economy applications
→ 40% used Circle Nanopayments for sub-cent transactions
→ 34% implemented crosschain flows with CCTP
→ 67% of winners built core functionality around nanopayments
Across the hackathon, builders used Arc as the settlement layer for agent-driven finance, crosschain coordination, pay-per-use infrastructure, and programmable creator economics.

At Arc Studio, @MerlinEgalite of @Morpho put it simply:
“Stablecoins are one of the greatest improvements blockchain has brought to the public.”
Stablecoins gave people portable checking accounts.
Arc + Morpho points to the next step: onchain savings with just a wallet and an internet connection.
