On October 28th, Circle, the company behind USDC stablecoin, launched a public testnet for its Layer-One blockchain network, Arc. This 'Economic Operating System' for the internet is already on board with over one hundred major companies, including BlackRock, Visa, and Amazon Web Services. The testnet allows developers and companies to try out new features without risking real digital assets.
