Arc mainnet is live today, and we’re launching full platform support on day 1. RPC, WebSockets, Data APIs, and gasless transaction infra. Build on @Arc, the economic OS for the internet.

Gas paid in @USDC, fees around a cent, finality in under a second, and full EVM compatibility so your Solidity carries over. Everything developers need to know about @Arc before Sept 16:

@solana slots at 350ms (heading to 200ms) changes the bar for app infra. The number itself means nothing, it's the economic activity that this increases at the app layer which changes everything

What if mainstream crypto adoption happens without consumers even realizing they're using crypto? For years, the industry imagined a future where people would pay for everyday purchases directly with crypto. But the path to adoption may look very different. On Episode 5 of Crossing the Chasm, Blake Duncan, Lead Agent Experience Engineer at @Alchemy, explores how stablecoin-backed cards are allowing institutions to build on crypto rails while giving consumers the payment experiences they already know. The technology moves behind the scenes. The experience stays familiar. Could that be what finally brings crypto payments mainstream? Listen to the full conversation with host Justin Friedman wherever you get your podcasts, or via the link in the comments below. Powered by @raincards.

on public demand we added HyperEVM to our Faucet 🫡 HyperEVM season is here - don't miss it building a memecoin launchpad or setting up a trading agent - just use alchemy :)

Agents are already buying software, managing infra, and paying for APIs on behalf of businesses. Consumers are next: 100k+ people have already signed up for @agentcardai. @nikil breaks down agentic payments are headed in StrataMedia's new survey ↓

🕰️ One day, @SolanaFndn came to us and said... "Solana builders would like time travel". So we built it. Solana Account Archive answers getAccountInfo for any account at any historical slot. Dive into the past, build the future.

🙅‍♂️ A failed transaction is a failed trade. @goldskyio's Compose sponsors gas on 13 chains so users never touch a native token. 2.8M sponsored transactions on Alchemy. 99.999% success. Here's how they built it 👇

$0.04. That's what it cost our agent to make a trading call. In this video, watch Alchemy Agent Wallets use Nanopayments powered by @Circle Gateway to let Codex pay for live BTC data, pull 5 signals and act, no human in the loop. Agents autonomously paying for the market signals they need, in real time, is a huge win.

Ripping packs, but the cards are real and the money's onchain 🃏 @Collector_Crypt tokenized ~$40M of graded cards on @solana. Rip, trade, or redeem the physical card in seconds. Hundreds of thousands of txns a week. Under 7ms reads. 100% success. It just has to be fast, so it runs on Alchemy.

.@Alchemy has released RPC, websockets, and three indexed Data APIs for Stellar, available now on mainnet and testnet. Developers and applications building on Stellar can now query transfer history, balances, and NFT holdings without running your own indexer.

Robinhood Chain crossed 52.5M+ transactions two weeks in. When a network grows that fast, the infra either keeps UP ✅ or it doesn't ❌ We scaled from 4 nodes to 37 across 4 regions, all healthy, NO DOWNTIME. Being a good provider means scaling before the spike, not after.

About two weeks in and Robinhood Chain’s growth continues with companies like @alchemy @morpho @rialto_xyz and @trmlabs. 👉Over 52.5M transactions 👉Nearly 1M total addresses 👉Over $323M protocol TVL 👉$3B+ in weekly DEX volume (per Bernstein) Keep building.
