BitGo Brings Wallet and Custody Support to Arc Mainnet

BitGo said on September 16 that its wallet and custody infrastructure was live from the launch day of Circle’s Arc mainnet, giving its clients an operational route into the new network. The rollout covers several wallet and custody products rather than a single storage service, while eligible clients can also move USDC and EURC on Arc.

The significance is practical for institutions already using BitGo’s infrastructure: Arc access includes transfer, transaction-indexing and treasury-management functions alongside custody. That matters on a network where Circle has made USDC the gas token.

BitGo goes live with Arc wallets and custody on mainnet launch

BitGo announced that full wallet and custody support was available as Arc mainnet went public. Its supported product set includes BitGo Self-Custody MPC wallets in both hot and cold configurations, Custody MPC wallets, and Go Account.

Together, those offerings give clients choices across self-custody and custody arrangements and across hot and cold wallet configurations. BitGo’s announcement presented the Arc connection as an integration with its wallet and custody infrastructure, rather than as a standalone asset listing.

Circle separately identified BitGo as an institutional custody provider in its own launch announcement. That independent confirmation places BitGo’s integration within the set of services Circle presented as available when the network opened to the public.

USDC and EURC workflows extend beyond asset storage

Eligible BitGo clients can deposit and withdraw USDC on Arc, and EURC support is also available, according to a September 18 report distributed through Korea Newswire and Business Wire.

BitGo supports auto-consolidation and bulk withdrawals on Arc. Its Gas Tank service covers gas costs related to consolidation.

The integration also includes indexing for native and token transfers, enabling activity tracking through BitGo’s infrastructure. Access to the deposit and withdrawal features is limited to eligible clients; the available information does not specify eligibility criteria or which client categories can use them.

BitGo joins Arc’s institutional custody roster

BitGo joined Arc’s launch-day institutional custody infrastructure, with support for its wallet and custody services and for eligible-client USDC and EURC workflows.

The broader launch roster was not limited to BitGo: Circle named Anchorage, Ceffu, Copper, Fireblocks and Zodia Custody alongside it as institutional custody providers.

For firms already using BitGo, the connection may reduce the need to adopt a separate custody stack to hold assets or carry out the specified Arc workflows. That does not imply equivalent functionality across the roster, however; Circle’s announcement names the providers but does not set out an identical feature set for each, and BitGo’s deposit and withdrawal access remains limited to eligible clients whose criteria and categories are not specified.

Arc’s USDC gas model and mainnet design

Circle said Arc launched with more than 100 institutional and ecosystem builders and named BitGo, Anchorage, Ceffu, Copper, Fireblocks and Zodia Custody as institutional custody providers on the public mainnet.

BitGo’s support covers custody infrastructure, USDC deposits and withdrawals, native and token-transfer indexing, bulk withdrawals and auto-consolidation, as well as EURC support.

Circle describes Arc as using USDC for gas and as designed for sub-second deterministic finality and EVM compatibility. These are the network operator’s design claims, not launch performance measurements.
