Circle launches Arc Builders Fund to support Web3 financial innovation

According to TechFlow, on December 18, Circle Ventures announced the launch of the Arc Builders Fund, which focuses on investing in early-stage teams building real-world financial applications on the Arc platform. The fund will primarily support five types of projects: low-latency on-chain markets, RWA and private credit markets based on privately composable rails, on-chain foreign exchange liquidity based on Circle StableFX, autonomous agent commerce systems, and energy and computing protocols supported by deterministic settlement. Arc is positioned as an "operating system for the internet economy," providing open and composable enterprise-grade infrastructure. This initiative is part of Circle Ventures' corporate initiatives and does not involve separate fundraising for the fund.
