Circle launches its own chain Arc today for the mainnet.
A few hard facts: the fees are paid in USDC—not another wild, gas-driven coin; the validator node list includes institutions like BlackRock, DTCC, Visa, and Mastercard, though Circle still selects who gets the permissions. The CEO described it as “the most important release since USDC.”
Also: they’ve already done a genesis mint of 10 billion ARC tokens this week, but they’re clear about this—it's not the same as an immediate public issuance. If a “$ARC goes live” suddenly pops up in the market, treat it as fake for now.
The chain is live for real; the tokens will be delivered—don’t get carried away.
