Arc is live on deBridge

deBridge announces support for Arc, a purpose-built Layer-1 blockchain for stablecoin-native financial applications with full EVM compatibility.

Built for financial applications, Arc uses USDC as the gas fee with sub-second deterministic finality. It supports payments, lending, FX, treasury management, and agentic commerce at scale.

What makes Arc so special?

With this integration, users can now transfer assets between Arc and 18+ blockchains supported on deBridge. Discover why Arc is a fit for you:

• Stablecoin native model: USDC is the native gas token. EURC and USYC are natively supported. No volatile token required.
• Stable fee design: Transaction fees are denominated in USDC, so costs stay predictable regardless of market volatility.
• Deterministic finality: Transactions finalize in under one second with no risk of chain reorganization.
• EVM compatibility: Deploy existing Solidity contracts and use standard Ethereum tooling like Hardhat, Foundry, and Viem.
• Opt-in privacy: Run Solidity contracts confidentially in Arc Privacy Sector (APS), an opt-in execution environment that finalizes alongside the public EVM.

deBridge Integrates Arc 

Arc is our twenty-first IaaS-initialized chain, instantly composable with 18 blockchains supported on deBridge. By subscribing to IaaS, Arc now has access to:

1. High-performance bridging: Arc users can move at lightning speed from anywhere to Arc and explore the dApps built on the blockchain. Anyone can bridge with near-instant settlement, deep liquidity, and protection from MEV and slippage.
2. Transfers of authenticated messages: Arc can securely transfer messages via a decentralized infrastructure across all our supported chains.
3. Secure asset custody: dePort enables secure asset custody for anyone coming from supported blockchains on deBridge. This allows projects or dApps to port tokens from any chain to enable utility in the Arc ecosystem.

The three pillars facilitate full cross-chain interoperability for Arc, enhancing the ecosystem's ability to grow its user base. This integration enables users to experience new dApps directly, while developers can effortlessly cross-compose between Arc and other blockchain ecosystems on deBridge. 

Any blockchain ecosystem (EVM or SVM) can initialize a deBridge IaaS subscription and connect to deBridge today.

What is deBridge IaaS?

deBridge IaaS is a turnkey solution for EVM and SVM blockchain ecosystems, both permissionless and permissioned. IaaS solves all three pillars of interoperability together:

1. Liquidity transfers
2. Transfers of authenticated messages
3. Secure asset custody

Arc is the twenty-first blockchain to leverage deBridge IaaS for complete interoperability with the 18 other chains supported by deBridge.
