AI agents need infrastructure that can match the speed and determinism of software.
Arc gives developers a more usable foundation for the agentic economy with:
→ Gas paid in stablecoin (starting with USDC)
→ Sub-second deterministic finality
→ Programmable settlement logic
→ Opt-in transaction privacy
That makes it easier to build systems where agents can transact, coordinate, and settle value in real time.
Quantum computing introduces long-term risk for digital infrastructure, from wallet signatures to validator integrity and more.
Circle’s post-quantum whitepaper explores Arc’s phased approach to resilience across:
→ USDC
→ Smart contracts
→ Validators
→ Infrastructure systems
Planning for long-term security and institutional adoption.

Charge $0.001 for an API call.
Let an agent pay for it automatically.
Settle thousands of payments without requiring a separate onchain gas charge for every transaction.
The Arc Nanopayments Starter gives developers a reference implementation for AI agent payments using x402, Circle Gateway, and USDC on Arc Testnet.
Clone it, run the seller app, start the buyer agent, and watch nanopayments happen in real time.

1/ Season 1 of Perle Labs is officially live.
AI doesn’t move forward without human-verified data.
And as AI systems move into high-stakes, real-world deployment, that data has to scale with accountability.
That’s exactlt what Perle Labs was built to do 🧵👇
Help train better AI – and earn while you do it.
I'm contributing on @PerleLabs, where verified human feedback powers real AI data.

Stablecoins settle instantly, 24/7, across borders. For treasury teams, that means less trapped cash and faster access to working capital.
We wrote a practical guide for teams looking to integrate stablecoins in their global treasury operations:
