Let’s dive in.
Why Arc Could Become Huge
Arc isn’t just another L1 project.
It’s backed by Circle, the company behind USDC, and is heavily focused on institutional adoption and real-world infrastructure.
Another important point:
Arc’s native token has already been confirmed for the community.
That’s why getting involved early could matter a lot.
1) Testnet Interactions
These activities are mainly for exploration and learning, so don’t spam transactions expecting huge rewards.
a) Claim Faucet
faucet.circle.com
b) Claim Your Domain
infinityname.com/arc
Grab your Arc domain before someone else does.
c) Explore Omnihub
omnihub.xyz
Try a few transactions and interact with apps inside the ecosystem.
d) Deploy a Contract
zkcodex.com/onchain/deploy
Deploy a simple contract on testnet and understand how things work.
Most testnet interactions usually have low weight.
Focus more on meaningful activity instead of mindless farming.
2) Arc Points Program
community.arc.network
Getting started is simple:
• Verify your email
• Complete your profile
• Earn your first 100 points instantly
Then start collecting more points by:
• Watching videos
• Reading articles
• Joining community events
• Staying active consistently
Tier System
• 500 Points → Tier 1 (Architect Badge)
• 3,500 Points → Tier 2 (VIP List Opportunity)
• 15,000 Points → Tier 3 (Speak at IRL Events)
• 40,000 Points → Tier 4 (Collaborate with the Circle Team)
• 90,000 Points → Tier 5 (Builder Summit Access)
The higher your tier, the more visibility and opportunities you unlock inside the ecosystem.
3) Discord & Community Roles
Discord:
discord.gg/buildonarc
Tips to get accepted faster:
• Read every question carefully
• Give genuine and thoughtful answers
• Complete your Arc profile before applying
Important Roles:
• Creator Role → Handpicked by the team
• Moderator Role → Given to active contributors
There’s no magic trick to getting roles.
The best strategy is simple:
Stay active.
Stay visible.
Keep contributing consistently.
4) The Social Layer
This is where most people underestimate the opportunity.
Things you should be doing:
• Share Arc ecosystem updates on X
• Post feedback about testnet apps
• Document your learning journey
• Create educational content and threads
• Engage with builders and contributors
Teams usually notice people who consistently provide value and help grow awareness organically.
5) Build Something on Arc
This is where the real edge exists.
You don’t need to build the next unicorn startup.
Even small tools, dashboards, bots, mini dApps, or educational resources can get attention if they’re useful.
Builders almost always stand out faster than passive users.

Final Advice

Treat it like an ecosystem you genuinely want to grow with.
The people who usually win early are:
• Consistent contributors
• Visible community members
• Builders
• Educators
• Problem solvers
Get involved early.
Stay active.
Document everything.
Build relationships.
