Arc Just Launched Mainnet With Chainlink Live From Block One.

The launch of Arc Mainnet marks a significant milestone for the DexTrac team. Here’s why.

Built by Circle, Arc is a Layer 1 blockchain. It is described as a stablecoin-native financial operating system purpose-built for global markets, the movement of stablecoins and tokenized money, and an increasingly agentic economy.

It (Arc) launches as a full-stack financial platform with assets, applications, interoperability, developer infrastructure, and Circle platform services live from day one. — Source

There is a great deal to unpack around Arc and plenty that stands out.

Its validator cohort alone brings together industry titans including BlackRock, DTCC, Mastercard, Visa and Sumitomo, while its broader launch ecosystem includes companies like Aave, Coinbase, Kraken, Ledger, MetaMask and Robinhood.

But those aren’t the aspects of the launch I want to focus on.

I’ll leave the architecture and technical details to those better placed to explain them.

Instead, I want to focus on two aspects of the launch that make it particularly significant for the DexTrac team.

First, DexTrac is a proud member of the Circle Alliance, a global ecosystem of organizations working to expand the adoption and utility of USDC and stablecoin-based finance. Arc has been purpose-built by Circle to help facilitate those very goals, making its launch hugely significant for us.

Second, back in June, Chainlink announced that Arc would be joining the Chainlink SCALE program, giving developers access to Chainlink’s institutional-grade oracle infrastructure, including CCIP, Data Streams, Data Feeds and Proof of Reserve.

DexTrac is proud to be supporting all four of those services from day one.

At the time of publication, that already includes 28 unique instances of Chainlink market data on Arc, including established feeds such as USDC/USD, BTC/USD and ETH/USD.

And that is where things stand for DexTrac on day one. Four Chainlink services, 28 market data feeds, multiple streams, CCIP lanes and a new network whose story is only just beginning.

As Arc begins its journey on mainnet, we’re looking forward to seeing how the network evolves, what gets built, where adoption takes it, and the role we can play in supporting its growth.
