Arc, the open Layer-1 blockchain, is live on mainnet. dRPC supports Arc Mainnet from day one and gives developers instant RPC access to the network through NodeCloud and NodeCore.
What Arc Is
Arc is designed as an Economic OS for the internet: infrastructure purpose-built for financial markets, real-time money movement, and agentic economic activity. The network runs on stablecoins as gas, starting with USDC, giving builders predictable, dollar-denominated fees instead of a volatile native gas token. Transactions finalize in sub-second time under Arc’s Malachite consensus, and the network is EVM-compatible, so existing tooling carries over.
Arc moves into public mainnet after operating a private mainnet with more than 100 ecosystem and institutional builders, backed by a founding validator cohort that includes major financial institutions. At launch, the network is built to support stablecoin payments, cross-border FX, tokenized real-world assets, and the onchain infrastructure agentic applications need to transact.
What dRPC Supports
dRPC’s support for Arc Mainnet means there’s no need to run your own node infrastructure or work around backend bottlenecks, you get high-performance RPC access from day one. That’s what NodeCloud delivers: reliable uptime and smart routing. Prefer to self-host? NodeCore gives you the same routing, free and open source.
Get Started
Arc is available now on the dRPC Chainlist. Connect through NodeCloud for hosted access, or deploy NodeCore for self-hosted infrastructure with full routing control.
