The project will be rolled out in stages by a group of founding validators. These include BlackRock, ICE, Mastercard, MoneyGram, SBI Group, Standard Chartered, Visa, and others. Arc is compatible with more than 20 blockchains and supports the use of RWAs, AI agents, wrapped BTC, and 22 stablecoins.
In addition, Arc provides privacy while preserving auditability. The option operates 24/7 worldwide, enabling intraday FX transactions and repo operations. Project participants can also make cross-border payments, manage liquidity, and issue tokenized assets. Arc is already being used by BNY, Société Générale, Standard Chartered, and other financial institutions.
