Arc Wallet is a seedless, AI-powered smart wallet built on Circle's modular infrastructure. We combine Circle's Arc Network with Google Gemini AI to deliver the most intuitive Web3 experience. No seed phrases. No private key management. Just seamless Web3 access. Users authenticate with device biometrics through WebAuthn passkeys. Private keys are generated and stored in device secure enclaves, never exposed to users or servers. Lost your phone? Passkeys sync via iCloud Keychain or Google Password Manager. This is self-custody without the anxiety of 24-word backups. We leverage Circle's complete modular stack. Arc Network provides the foundation with native USDC and EURC support. Circle CCTP enables trustless cross-chain transfers. Circle Paymaster sponsors gas fees paid entirely in USDC. We combine this with ERC-4337 account abstraction and RIP-7212 on-chain P256 verification. Our AI Transaction Agent is powered by Google Gemini. Users interact through natural language: "Send 100 USDC to vitalik.eth" or "Bridge my EURC to Ethereum." The AI parses intent, constructs transactions, estimates fees, and guides confirmation conversationally. AI capabilities include natural language transaction execution, intelligent gas optimization, context-aware recipient suggestions, multi-step operation guidance, and transaction error explanation in plain language. The AI handles intent parsing only. All signing occurs locally via passkeys in secure enclaves. The AI never accesses private keys. Users maintain full self-custody while AI makes blockchain human-readable. Arc Wallet is currently 70% complete with an open waitlist. We are ready to integrate Arc Network's selective privacy feature once enabled. Live demo: app.arcwallet.network

In this hybrid hackathon powered by Arc, developers will build the next generation of agentic commerce systems using Arc with USDC. Explore a world where AI agents and web services can pay for APIs, data, compute, and content in dynamic, usage-based ways, while Arc provides stablecoin-native settlement with predictable USDC fees and deterministic, sub-second finality. This hackathon is supported by Google & Google DeepMind, with a dedicated challenge and $40,000 in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) credits awarded for the best use of Gemini models and Google AI Studio. 📅 January 9 – 24, 2026 • Jan 9 – 23 (Online Phase) – Collaborate and build online with developers and AI innovators from around the world.
