Regarding the CRCL ARC public chain, I need to add a perspective that might have been overlooked—

This thing was never designed for regular users; the target users are AI Agents.

Since last year, Circle has been doing a lot of research on compliant USDC payments between on-chain Agents, organizing various activities and tests. Now, it seems that the ARC public chain is paving the way for the future Agent economic system—allowing machines to automatically settle transactions with stablecoins.

This thread has been buried pretty deep, but the logic is clear: compliant stablecoins + autonomous AI transactions + dedicated infrastructure—the three pieces of the puzzle are coming together.

ARC-6.06%

USDC-0.02%

Oh damn, I really hadn’t thought of it from this angle... There’s definitely something to the agent economy. Wait, does this mean we retail investors should be worried? Circle played this move pretty covertly—compliant stablecoin + automatic settlement, feels like they’re making a big play. Come to think of it, if things really develop this way, USDC’s position on-chain will be even more solid.

Damn, I really didn't expect that someone has already been paving the way for Agent economy, and Circle’s move is indeed well hidden. Now I finally understand when the USDC I bought will actually become useful. Wait, does this mean us regular retail investors should consider getting in early?

Damn, turns out Circle is playing such a big game... Should've realized Agent economy is the real killer app. --- This perspective is truly spot on. Regular people just buy and hold some coins, while the machines are frantically trading and settling in the background. We might not even understand where the real battlefield is. --- Regulated stablecoins are the real deal here. Using USDC for settlements between Agents avoids all those messy issues. Circle's move here is truly meticulous. --- Wait, so by that logic, are regular users just tagging along when they join ARC...? --- Putting these three puzzle pieces together... Sounds nice, but somehow feels like we're just working for the machines. --- Alright, so Circle is basically betting on the future by tying stablecoins with AI, wagering that the Agent economy will become the mainstream transaction model. --- But honestly, if this really happens, AI will have its own financial infrastructure... That’s actually a bit scary.

Oh wow, so Circle is paving the way for robots. Ordinary people like us are going to be phased out.

Damn, this angle is really incredible. I followed Circle for nothing before, thought it was just a regular public chain upgrade. --- Agent economy? Seriously? So should us retail investors start getting anxious now? Haha --- Wait, according to this logic, Circle is playing a really big game here. Machines automatically trading and settling... kind of scary. --- Using compliant stablecoins as the foundational infrastructure for agent payments and settlements—this approach is definitely fierce. --- No wonder they've been so low-key, turns out they've been paving the way for the future. --- So ARC is actually a B2B product? Underlying infrastructure for the agent market? --- Putting these three puzzle pieces together, it feels like Circle is really up to something.

Damn, this angle is really sharp. How did I not think of the Agent economic system part? Wait, isn’t it a bit awkward for us human users to buy this thing... If you put the three puzzle pieces together, Circle’s ambition is really not small. If this works out, the way stablecoins operate is going to be rewritten. Compliance + autonomous trading + infrastructure, it feels almost invincible. But can Agents really settle trades automatically? That’s kind of unsettling if you think about it. So ARC is actually a B2B chain, did I get that right?

Oh, this angle is interesting. The Agent economy is definitely underrated. Damn, a compliant stablecoin as an Agent payment channel? Circle is playing a long game here. The question is... can this thing really take off, or is it just another PPT project? Hmm, automated settlement + machine trading, feels more like building financial infrastructure than a public chain. So ordinary players buying CRCL now are basically betting on the Agent economy taking off? That’s a pretty big gamble. Circle really knows how to market, packaging "serving AI" to look like a public chain. I just want to know what the real TVL will look like. Compliance is definitely a competitive advantage, but it’s still a long way from being practical.

Damn, is that really what they're thinking? Then regular retail investors are totally screwed. I'm optimistic about the Agent economy, but Circle's move here is way too sneaky. Wait, what about USDC's liquidity? Will automated trading between machines just keep sucking value out? This logic is so smooth it's uncomfortable... Feels like the big players are running the game without us again.

Oh, so ARC is actually building financial infrastructure for Agents. I really didn’t think of it that way before. Automated settlement between machines... it feels a bit sci-fi but also quite reasonable. Circle really planned deeply with this move. But in that case, regular retail investors will have to wait a bit longer.
