sauce command and the MCP server build its transactions and send
them. Arc Testnet is a test network: its coin and tokens have no value.
Notes
Arc Testnet is Arc’s model exactly: USDC is the native coin at 18 decimals and the ERC-200x3600000000000000000000000000000000000000 at 6, one balance, with the same minimum base fee.
Every note on the Arc page holds here too. Its USDC and EURC come from Circle’s
faucet.
Arc Testnet has no DEX, lending market or oracle in the registry: it is for USDC and EURC
moves, CCTP and Circle Gateway. For a pool, a swap, Morpho, Aave or Aerodrome, compile and
simulate on arc. USDC has the same address on both; EURC differs, and WETH and USYC
exist only on arc.
In a program
Compiled with--chain arc-testnet, a program names Arc Testnet’s tokens and contracts with no
import; the same file compiled for another chain resolves each name there, or fails where the
chain does not have it.
Tokens
Protocols
Every protocol the registry records here, each contract with how a program names it: its namespace contract, or its ABI imported from./protocols/<slug>/<Export>.json and bound to the
address.
