Source sealed
Robinhood trading was stopped and the final holder sequence was frozen permanently.
Arc · Trading live · Ownership renounced
The migration is complete. Trade AROS directly against USDC through its full-range Uniswap V3 pool—with 0% token tax and a permanently renounced token contract.
0x3Af1d499CB46cd5504A5a3CB864DCc105B74470dDirect AROS/USDC trade through the verified 1% pool. Your wallet signs every approval and swap. Keep a small amount of Arc USDC for gas.
Balance lens
Robinhood is now sealed. Arc is the live token ledger, so balances can change independently as users trade and transfer on Arc.
Migration complete
The temporary mirrored state has ended. The audited holder state was finalized on Arc before public Arc trading opened.
Robinhood trading was stopped and the final holder sequence was frozen permanently.
Final source balances were checked against Arc before the mirror entered its live ERC-20 state.
43,000 USDC and 82.49M AROS established the full-range 1% V3 market on Arc.
The token tax is 0%, 231.4M AROS was sent to the dead address, and contract ownership was renounced.
Final state
Standard transfers are live. AROS can move between Arc wallets without the former source-chain restrictions.
Ownership renunciation is permanent. The token contract no longer has an owner who can regain administrative control.
Final token economics
The Robinhood phase used a temporary tax to fund scarce Arc gas. Arc trading now uses a standard 0% token tax.
Normal wallet transfers and swaps do not deduct a token tax.
The accumulated migration reserve was removed from active circulation.
Paired with 82.49M AROS in the Arc full-range V3 position.
Sending tokens to the dead address does not change the ERC-20 totalSupply value; it removes those tokens from usable circulation. The V3 pool itself charges a separate 1% LP fee on swaps.
The Aros story
In 2015, Circle posted about a dog named Aros learning that Bitcoin could buy treats. The name sits one letter away from Arc—and the payment idea still lands.
Bitcoin crossed a payment boundary to buy dog food. AROS crossed from a temporary Robinhood market into its permanent Arc home. Different rails, the same instinct: assets should move through barriers.
“Aros just learned he can buy dog treats with #bitcoin! Another happy Circle customer (arguably our cutest)!”
