Getting started

Connect to Arc Mainnet

1. Add Arc Mainnet to a compatible wallet using chain ID 5042, RPC https://rpc.mainnet.arc.io and gas symbol USDC.
2. Fund the wallet with USDC on Arc Mainnet. USDC pays network fees and is the routing hub for every market.
3. Open the contract address book and confirm the target network and contract before using a wallet integration.
4. Reserve USDC for gas as well as the amount you intend to trade or deposit.

Arc Mainnet tokens

4 V3 pools · WETH / USDC, cirBTC / USDC, WETH / cirBTC, USDC / EURC. Check the token contract, not only its symbol, before trading or approving.

ARCHERY has zero supply until TGE; an ARCHERY / USDC market is created at TGE.

Make a first swap

1. Select a market such as WETH / USDC and enter an amount with the token's correct decimals.
2. Fetch a quote. Review the minimum received, price impact, current pool fee and deadline.
3. Approve only the required token amount to the selected router. On Arc, the approval and the swap share one wallet confirmation.
4. Sign the transaction, check that its receipt succeeded, and confirm the token movements in the Arc explorer.

Provide liquidity

Arc Mainnet markets are V3 concentrated-liquidity pools: a deposit creates an NFT for the price range you choose. The V2 factory and router are deployed, but no V2 market exists yet.

Every pool already has a gauge. Staking opens in the app at TGE, when ARCHERY emissions can begin; until then an unstaked position keeps earning its trading fees.

Governance at TGE

From TGE, lock ARCHERY to receive veArchery voting power. Review the lock duration or permanent-lock choice before signing, then use an eligible voting window to direct weight to pool gauges. Staking, voting and claiming are separate actions with separate eligibility checks.

Arc Testnet runs separate QA emissions with mock tokens; testnet balances confer no Mainnet entitlement.
