Developer Workshop
summary
Circle details a developer platform with three wallet models—dev control, user control, modular wallets—plus APIs, webhooks and a compliance engine; a Paymaster that lets users pay gas from USDC and is backed by Circle liquidity; CCTP v2: 18 minutes → ~30 seconds fast cross‑chain minting via an insurance/liquidity pool and hookable post‑transfer logic; new Gateway unifies USDC balances by depositing into chain‑specific deposit contracts; and ARC, an upcoming EVM‑compatible L1 with USDC as native gas, on‑chain FX, instant finality (~350 ms) and opt‑in privacy.
