Arc mainnet is live. ๐ข
Congratulations to @Arc, @bobbilee, and everyone on the team who made this happen. Watching a chain go from testnet to mainnet isn't just a technical milestone, it's the moment an ecosystem stops being a promise and starts being infrastructure.
OinkAI has been building on Arc Testnet for months. What's already live:
โ Non-custodial time-lock USDC savings contract, verified on Arcscan
โ ERC-8004 registered agent (ID 885309) with on-chain identity, reputation, and validation
โ Full agent chat interface, live at https://t.co/g9Ax7aORDM
What's next before OinkAI itself touches mainnet:
โ Professional smart contract audit
โ Bug bounty program
โ Circle Wallets integration for non-crypto users
โ StableFX for local currency withdrawals
โ Staged rollout with deposit caps
Mainnet isn't a race, it's a responsibility.
OinkAI holds user savings. That's not a place to cut corners.
For now: still building on testnet, still shipping, still making the pig sharper.
Arc going live just made the destination real.
Let's go. ๐ท
Arc Mainnet is live.
Arc launches as the Economic OS for the internet: an open platform for global markets, real-time value movement, tokenized assets, and agentic economic activity.
Arc is more than a blockchain.
It launches as a full-stack financial platform with assets, applications, interoperability, developer infrastructure, and Circle platform services live from day one.
Arc delivers USDC as native gas, deterministic sub-second finality, EVM compatibility, and institutional validators.
It integrates with Arc Studio, App Kits, Arc Portal, Circle Agent Stack, CCTP, Gateway, CPN, and StableFX.
A complete economic platform at genesis.
Arc launches with infrastructure for:
โ Agentic economic workflows
โ Lending and borrowing
โ Trading and liquidity
โ Onchain FX
โ Payments and settlement
โ Tokenized assets
โ Exchanges, wallets, custody, compliance, data, and developer tooling
190+ institutional and ecosystem builders are building across Arc.
๐๐ฒ๐จ, ๐ฌ๐๐๐จ๐ง๐ ๐ฆ๐๐๐ญ๐ฎ๐ฉ.
I've been to two @arc events in Uyo now.
Both times I left with more than I came with, better questions, sharper thinking, and people I'll be building alongside for years.
That's the part nobody tells you about. You walk in expecting to learn about a blockchain and you walk out having met your people.
So if an Arc event happens anywhere near you, go.
Genuinely. You don't have to be deep in crypto. You just have to be curious about where money and software are heading.
Now, what we actually talked about.
Saturday's panel was on the agentic economy.
Most conversations about AI agents and money stay abstract.
Agents will pay each other. Machines will transact.
It sounds like something happening somewhere else, to someone else.
I kept coming back to a simpler question while we talked: who does this actually help first?
My answer is the same one I've had since I started building. It helps people whose money is losing value while they sleep.
Here's what I mean. If you live somewhere with a stable currency, an agent managing your money saves you time. Useful, but not urgent. If you live here, where what you saved in January buys less in December, it's not about convenience. You're not trying to be efficient. You're trying to stop losing.
That's why I build @oink_AI. You send a message. It holds your savings in dollars on Arc, locked until a date you choose. No seed phrase. No exchange. No new vocabulary to learn.
The agent part isn't decoration. It's the only reason someone who has never touched crypto can use it at all.
The honest part.
We're not finished. Email sign-up works but isn't live yet. And there's still no clean way to take money back out into naira, because no naira stablecoin exists.
Circle has one for South Africa. One for Brazil. One for Mexico. Nothing for us. That's the gap I want closed more than anything else on my roadmap, and it isn't something I can code my way around.
What I took from the room.
The technology is further along than the access. Arc launched with everything working. Agents can hold money, set limits, pay each other, settle in under a second. That part is done.
What's missing is the door. Getting ordinary people in, and getting their money back out in the currency they actually spend.
That's the work. Not more infrastructure. Just the last mile.
Thank you @TechyDom, @JerryOjumah and @bobbilee for putting it together, and to everyone who showed up and asked questions.
Still building. ๐๐
When you already have direct access to the people you need, Kลru might not seem like a big deal.
But for those who have spent months sending DMs, chasing introductions, and waiting for replies?
Itโs a whole lot.
And that means one thing:
Kลru = access without the guesswork.
Attach value.
Get the reply.
Or get your money back.
Taco Tuesday, Koruites.
@samconnerone@oink_AI because In my region our currency loses value to the dollar almost 70% for the past 2years, so they are saving and losing money through inflation without knowing, oinkAI helps them save in USDC withdraw in local currency when they want too, save them from inflation.

Let me tell you what actually happened and what actually matters.
The launch itself was historic.
BlackRock, Visa, Mastercard, DTCC, ICE, eleven institutional validators, live from New York.
Over 100+ applications available from day one. Aave, Morpho, Uniswap, Ledger, Wirex, real infrastructure, real liquidity, real builders.
This isn't a whitepaper anymore.
It's a live network.
Hundreds of thousands of people watched it happen, over 700k to 1M viewers at peak.
The demand to witness this moment was real.
๐ข๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ป: The confusion is real but the facts are simple.
ARC exists, Circle minted 10 billion tokens this week.
But Circle has been explicit: ARC is NOT tradeable, NOT available for public use, NOT live for staking, governance, or any utility.
There is no airdrop confirmed. There is no distribution date.
Anyone selling you "ARC" right now is not selling you anything real.
Stop panicking about something that hasn't launched.
When Arc is ready to make token announcements, they will make them.
๐ข๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ถ๐๐บ: Some viewers saw members of the Arc team on the livestream and used it as an excuse to spread racial fear about rug pulls.
I won't dignify the specifics. Judging a blockchain network by the ethnicity of the people building it is exactly the kind of ignorance that holds this entire space back.
The Arc team includes Circle a publicly traded, NYSE-listed company.
Validators include BlackRock and Visa. This logic doesn't survive five seconds of actual research.
Name it for what it is and move on.
๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐บ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐ป๐ผ๐: Arc is live. The infrastructure is real.
For builders like me in Nigeria building @oink_AI, a non-custodial USDC savings agent on Arc this is the moment we've been waiting for.
The chain we've been building on testnet for months is now a live production environment.
The work doesn't change.
The direction doesn't change.
The noise doesn't change what we're building or why.
Build. ๐ท

5 hours to Arc mainnet. ๐
From testnets, experiments, and countless builds to a live network.
Been building and contributing on Arc for months now, and it's been genuinely one of the best experiences in this space. And we're just getting started.
So proud to see Arc make it to this stage.
Mainnet day. Let's go. ๐ข
August. done.
Kลru is a system for the message that always mattered. the one you drafted and never sent. the one that got buried in an inbox no human can answer honestly.
you attach a real number to a real ask. it locks in escrow. they reply and earn it, or you get every cent back.
no ghosting. no chasing. just an outcome, every time.
september is another chance to reach the person you've been putting off.

For years, the internet taught us the same thing:
get more followers.
send more DMs.
fight harder for attention.
But think about how much value gets lost in unanswered messages.
People want access to experts, creators, founders, investors, and people who actually have the answers theyโre looking for.
The demand is already there.
The problem?
There has never been a proper system for it.
Thatโs where Kลru comes in.
Instead of sending another cold DM and hoping to be noticed, you attach real value to your request.
Your payment goes into escrow.
They reply โ they get paid.
They donโt โ you get refunded.
No ghosting.
No chasing.
No uncertainty.
Thatโs not just messaging. Thatโs a new infrastructure for access.
The next frontier of the internet might not be attention.
It might be what happens when access finally has a market.
Who would you Summon first?

The lift most builders would skip: also updated Agent 885309's on-chain metadata on @Arc so the ERC-8004 IdentityRegistry points at the new URL, not the old Vercel one.
One setAgentURI(agentId, newURI) call.
Web2 config and Web3 identity now aligned.
Small thing. But if OinkAI is going to be a citizen of the agentic economy, its papers should be current.
Tx: https://t.co/dLLDYWT5nF
Agent: https://t.co/zWKmSJBU0R
https://t.co/28UoyZanIy is officially home.
On-chain metadata for Agent 885309 updated too the @arc IdentityRegistry now points at the permanent domain.
Papers current. Passport valid. ๐ท

Agent ID: 885309.
An on-chain identity. A reputation record. A validated non-custody credential. All permanent, all portable, all readable by any other agent on Arc.
