Users can now trade Arc tokens on PumpFun

@Arc has integrated with @Pumpfun, the multichain memecoin launchpad, giving users a new way to trade supported Arc assets using $USDC. The partnership also introduces a rewards programme and fee-free trading for retail participants.

What the Integration Offers

Through the integration, users trading Arc tokens on PumpFun will earn "Callout Rewards," an incentive mechanism tied to trading activity on the platform. Arc's high-speed infrastructure also enables zero-fee trades for retail traders, lowering the barrier to entry for smaller participants.

Trades are settled in $USDC, which aligns with Arc's broader design philosophy. Arc addresses cross-chain inefficiencies with predictable dollar-based fees, sub-second finality, and direct integration with Circle's full-stack platform. The use of $USDC as the settlement currency for PumpFun trades is a natural extension of that infrastructure.

Arc's Wider Ambitions

Arc is designed to be the Economic OS for the internet: infrastructure where open, permissionless innovation and institutional-grade financial operations come together on a single network. It is a stablecoin-native Layer-1 blockchain providing a foundation for stablecoins, tokenized assets, economic contracts, and onchain markets.

The PumpFun partnership connects Arc's institutional-grade infrastructure to the retail memecoin market. PumpFun has officially launched a multichain trading feature, allowing users to trade assets across several major blockchain networks using a single wallet. Adding Arc to that ecosystem broadens the platform's reach while giving Arc tokens exposure to one of crypto's most active retail trading communities.

Circle announced its founding validator cohort for Arc in August 2026, with the network then in private mainnet with more than 100 ecosystem and institutional builders, on track for a public mainnet launch on September 16, 2026. The PumpFun integration arrives at the same moment Arc opens to the public, signalling an early push to build liquidity and user activity on the network from day one.

Together, the collaboration bridges two distinct corners of the market: Arc's focus on compliant, stablecoin-native financial infrastructure and PumpFun's position as a leading venue for speculative token trading.
