On the heels of the Privacy Sector announcement the other day, we're also publishing exciting research we've made on the Multi-proposer front Introducing the Arc Multi-Proposer Protocol (AMP) AMP brings (i) bounded inclusion and (ii) stronger ordering guarantees so that user flows on Arc have the best experience possible on decentralized infra Brief explanation: Most network let a single validator decide what's in the next block and in what order. That discretion is where MEV lives, and it's the kind of discretion traditional markets explicitly regulate AMP introduces a new role: proposers Proposers have a super-power: they bundle user transactions into Payloads and broadcast them to validators. Once a Proposer talks to quorum of validators, then their Payload __must__ appear in the next block, in a fixed order. There is still a block assembler, but it no longer has discretion over what goes into a block. If inclusion and ordering matter to your flows and your users, then AMP gives you a direct path to validators with protocol-enforced guarantees We're actively looking for design partners!

Liquidity infrastructure for stablecoin FX is building on Arc. @AerodromeFi is coming to Arc, deploying its exchange infrastructure to help power Arc’s stablecoin-native ecosystem. This launch unlocks: → Deeper markets for FX swaps and liquidity provision → A proven way to bootstrap stablecoin liquidity on Arc → Capital-efficient infrastructure to help grow onchain economies More to come.

Value to app developers and probably fair markets - @arc’s proposed multi-proposer architecture unveiled.

AMP enables transaction fairness, PFOF rebates, and much more. Talk to us if you are interested in exploring serving as a proposer with App-Specific Sequencing and unique order flows. Note: AMP is exploratory research at this stage until further validation.

Blockchains are operating systems with a key difference: tamper resistant code, perfectly auditable inputs and outputs, and provable machine state. @jerallaire explains that as AI drives more economic activity, those assurances become even more critical.

Circle Research introduces Arc Multi-Proposer Protocol (AMP), a new approach to block building. AMP introduces proposers that bundle user transactions into payloads and broadcast them directly to validators. The result: → Bounded inclusion → Fixed ordering → Application-aligned order flow For financial applications, block construction matters. Predictable settlement needs predictable transaction handling. circle.com/blog/amp-rethinki…

Introducing a Circle-built open-source prediction markets sample app on Arc Testnet. A decentralized prediction market platform built on Arc with @UMAprotocol’s Optimistic Oracle V2 for trustless market resolution. Arc enables prediction markets with sub-second settlement, native USDC/EURC support, crosschain USDC deposits, and predictable USDC-denominated gas fees.

Today we published the detailed design for Arc’s upcoming privacy infrastructure. It is a major step forward in building the Internet financial system in a way that works for people, households, major, corporations, and financial institutions. We’re excited to share this with the world and ultimately bring this onchain on @arc

Introducing a new technical series on Unified Balance Kit: Rethinking Payment and Treasury App Architectures. The first piece looks at the architectural shift from source-chain-first logic to available USDC. Applications can simplify the user experience while still keeping explicit control over route readiness, execution state, and failure modes. arc.io/blog/unified-balance-…

Previewing Arc’s future approach to opt-in privacy. Sensitive financial workflows should not become public market data. Arc’s privacy whitepaper outlines a roadmap for future confidentiality features with governed visibility for authorized parties. Potential use cases include: → Payroll → Treasury → Trading workflows → Asset issuance → B2B payments and FX Privacy without anonymity, designed for real financial activity onchain: arc.io/blog/privacy-with-con…

Hello, you’ve reached Boream & Boredley. We can’t come to the phone right now. Please leave your message after the beep. Phone: 888.532.6733 Email: hello@boreamboredley.com

The Director of Holding Patterns? No, thank you. On Arc, financial workflows can move closer to straight to the point: → Sub-second deterministic finality → Stablecoin-native payments → Future opt-in privacy controls Less waiting. Fewer forms. More programmable finance.

And that’s a wrap!!!! This was so much fun! Thank you all for joining us on this experimental journey.

Shoutout to our Architects with @samconnerone

Huh? No, we’re awake. Totally awake. Been awake the whole time. We’d be even more awake if the system had programmable infrastructure for stablecoin payments, FX, and treasury operations. One platform. Running 24/7. That’s real on Arc.

Today, @LlamaRisk proposed a new standardized Risk Framework for assets on Aave V3, V4, and Aave Horizon. As Aave powers new financial applications and expands into new types of markets, best-in-class standards for evaluating asset risk will support that growth.

The Bored Room is officially live. Join us and watch this absurd event about the absurdity of old financial rails. arc.io/theboredroom

Bored room is amazing. OfficeSpace rendition on how the financial system works. x.com/i/broadcasts/1wxWjjvBX…

It's time to get Bored - live, all day, totally boring, at 11am EDT arc.io/theboredroom
