Circle's public chain Arc has launched its public mainnet and is now open for cross-chain transactions.

BlockBeats news, September 16: Circle's public chain Arc has officially confirmed that the mainnet is now open, with Chain ID 5042, RPC rpc.mainnet.arc.io, explorer explorer.arc.io, and Gas paid in USDC. It supports native cross-chain deposits and withdrawals for USDC/EURC. BlackRock, DTCC, Visa, Mastercard, and others are founding validators. Circle will simultaneously launch a product suite, and some aggregated bridges have already been tested with the first batch of arrivals.

Previously, after the Robinhood chain launched, tokens represented by CASHCAT achieved 1,000x and 10,000x returns, and the market expects similar market action to occur on the Arc chain. Therefore, on-chain funds are actively looking for opportunities to position early and front-run.

After the mainnet launch, official or partner cross-chain bridges include: Across, Axelar, Stargate, Wormhole, CircleWarp Bridge, or DYORBridge. In addition, multiple crypto-native platforms have announced that they will support the Arc chain at the first opportunity, including the all-chain aggregated trading tools GMGN and FOMO, the NFT trading platform Opensea, and the long bridge mentioned earlier by crypto trader Bonk Guy (the LONG token distribution is overly concentrated, and users should be aware of the risks).
