Identity-native payments on Arc

Money moves
with context.

TRACE turns a simple USDC transfer into a route with a recipient, a condition, and a way back.

A wallet can hold value. It cannot tell you who it belongs to.

When a payment needs identity, proof of control, a claim window, or an honest way to recover, the transfer itself needs more intelligence.

The TRACE answer

01

Identity is part of the route.

A verified X account anchors the intended recipient before a payment becomes claimable.

02

Control must be proven.

The recipient links a wallet with a signature. No custody, no guesswork.

03

Value needs a safe fallback.

Unclaimed funds can be cancelled or refunded by the sender after the configured window.

One deliberate route.
Four clear states.

TRACE keeps the logic legible: people decide, contracts enforce, money remains noncustodial.

01

Route

Set a recipient and a condition.

02

Verify

Recipient proves wallet control.

03

Claim

USDC is released to the linked wallet.

04

Recover

Sender can cancel or refund if needed.
CURRENT STATE

Route / state 01

An intent is bound to the person it is for, before it is bound to a wallet.

A payment flow people can read.

Every route is expressed in plain states, while the smart contract carries out the exact action that state permits.

TRACE / ARC TESTNET

Give money
a reason to arrive.

TRACE is an early, testnet-first prototype for conditional USDC settlement. It makes the edges of a payment explicit.
