Circle Alliance Team
An open L1 blockchain designed to unite programmable money and onchain innovation with real-world economic activity.
Arc is designed to serve as the Economic OS for the internet, enabling builders and issuers worldwide to power the next era of onchain lending, capital markets, FX, and payments, igniting liquidity across currencies and asset classes.
Engineered for mass adoption, Arc is enterprise-grade infrastructure featuring predictable fiat-based fees using stablecoins as gas, deterministic sub-second finality, opt-in configurable privacy, and direct integration with Circle’s full-stack platform for secure access to liquidity and powerful developer tooling.
As a public EVM-compatible network, developers can deploy smart contracts, build applications, and transact freely using familiar tools. While validator participation is permissioned for security and compliance, access to Arc is fully open.
