## Resource

Circle is transforming from a simple stablecoin issuer into a comprehensive on-chain financial infrastructure company by acquiring a massive portfolio of IBM blockchain patents. This strategic expansion supports Arc , a new Layer 1 blockchain that uniquely utilizes USDC as its native gas token to ensure predictable transaction costs. While the network is designed for institutional-grade payments and tokenized assets, its technical structure may unexpectedly foster a vibrant meme-coin ecosystem due to its deep dollar liquidity.
