Event Replay: Arc Community Spotlight: Social Payments with USDC Powered by XyloNet & PayX
Forge Labs will share a founder-led walkthrough of XyloNet & PayX, live on Arc Testnet. XyloNet is a stablecoin‑native DeFi stack (swap, bridge, vault), and PayX is a social payments flow that enables USDC tipping to X handles with a verification-based claim process.
The session highlights how Arc’s native USDC and Circle’s CCTP V2 (via Bridge Kit) enable cleaner payment UX and cross‑chain stablecoin flows. Expect a live demo, technical architecture deep dive, and practical steps developers can use to build similar applications on Arc.

Join Sam Sealey and Vicky Fu for this livestream that will discuss ClawRouter by BlockRunAI, the USDC OpenClaw Hackathon winning project.
ClawRouter gives each OpenClaw agent its own USDC wallet and enables agents to purchase LLM inference directly without human-created accounts or API keys. It routes each request to the cheapest capable model using a local scoring system and pays per request using signed USDC authorizations.
In this session Sam and Vicky will walk through the architecture that enables autonomous on-chain model selection and payments, and show how builders can run and extend the project locally. Expect a hands-on demo, an engineering deep dive, and live audience Q&A.

Circle Ventures Spotlight: Trad.Fi
In this episode, Sam Sealey, Director of Community at Circle, sits down with Alex Szul, CEO and co-founder of Trad.Fi, a Circle Ventures portfolio company, to explore how private credit is moving onchain.
Alex shares his journey from technical sales to DeFi entrepreneurship, the origins of Trad.Fi, and why the private credit market—particularly asset-backed financing—is primed for modernization. The conversation breaks down how Trad.Fi uses blockchain technology to automate origination, underwriting, and servicing, bringing transparency, efficiency, and real-time visibility to a historically opaque asset class.
Sam and Alex also dive into why TradFi chose to build on Arc, the advantages of stablecoin-based settlement with USDC, and how onchain infrastructure can unlock new possibilities like standardized tokenization and future secondary liquidity for private credit. The discussion closes with insights into working with Circle Ventures and what’s next for TradFi as it scales deal flow and capital partnerships.
A must-watch for anyone interested in private credit, onchain capital markets, and how TradFi and DeFi are converging.

What if your USDC balance wasn’t tied to a single chain — but instantly available across supported blockchains, no bridging, no waiting.
That’s the promise of Circle Gateway.
In this episode of Stablecoin 101, Blessing Adesiji breaks down how Gateway works behind the scenes — connecting a network of smart contracts and offchain services to unify USDC liquidity across supported chains.
You’ll learn:
- How Gateway’s wallet and minter contracts power unified balances
- How the attestation system keeps funds secure and consistent
- Why this design makes onchain payments faster and simpler for everyone
- This is how USDC becomes chain-abstracted money for the internet economy.

What if your USDC balance wasn’t tied to a single chain — but chain-abstracted and instantly available across supported chains at any time?
That’s the value proposition of Circle Gateway.
In this episode of Stablecoin 101, Blessing Adesiji breaks down how Gateway lets developers and users hold a single, unified USDC balance that can be accessed instantly across supported blockchains — without the need to bridge or swap.
You’ll learn:
- How Circle Gateway removes liquidity fragmentation across chains
- Why it creates a smoother experience for users and businesses
- How developers can build apps that just work — instantly, on any supported chain
This is what it means to make money onchain feel as seamless as the internet itself.

How do you actually move USDC across blockchains in code?
In this hands-on episode of Stablecoin 101, Blessing Adesiji walks through a real example of transferring USDC between testnets using CCTP (Cross Chain Transfer Protocol) — the infrastructure that powers seamless, secure, and fast onchain movement.
You’ll learn:
- How to set up your environment and connect to multiple chains
- How USDC is burned, attested to, and minted using CCTP
- How developers can implement this workflow in their own apps
By the end, you’ll see how easy it is to integrate crosschain USDC transfers — and why CCTP is redefining interoperability for developers.
