What is USDC?

USDC is a fully-reserved stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, issued by Circle, a regulated US fintech company.

USDC provides a transparent, audited digital dollar used for trading, savings, payments, and as core collateral in DeFi lending and liquidity pools.

USDC is natively issued on many chains including Ethereum, Solana, and Arbitrum, with Circle's CCTP enabling native cross-chain transfers.

USDC is favored by institutions and DeFi users for its regulatory compliance and monthly attestations, making it a trusted dollar rail on-chain.

What is Arbitrum?

Arbitrum is a leading Ethereum Layer 2 network that scales Ethereum with faster, cheaper transactions while inheriting its security.

Transactions on Arbitrum are paid in ETH, while the ARB token governs the Arbitrum DAO and protocol upgrades.

Arbitrum uses optimistic rollup technology, batching transactions off-chain and settling them on Ethereum with fraud-proof guarantees.

Arbitrum hosts one of the largest Layer 2 DeFi ecosystems, with deep liquidity in lending, perpetuals, and DEX trading at a fraction of mainnet costs.
