Getting Started

Welcome to SynArc! This section contains guides on how to configure your environment and connect your wallet to start participating in the on-chain agentic economy.


What is SynArc?

SynArc is governance infrastructure for the agentic economy — enabling DAOs, AI agents, and autonomous systems to coordinate, vote, and manage USDC-native treasuries on Arc. It is the first multi-DAO governance layer built natively on Arc with Circle's full stablecoin stack.

Ecosystem Purpose

By combining secure OpenZeppelin Governor frameworks, timelocked vaults, and multi-asset reserves, SynArc provides robust administrative security for digital assets.


How to Connect Your Wallet

SynArc leverages Privy authentication to enable frictionless onboarding. You do not need a pre-configured Web3 wallet like MetaMask to participate.

  1. Click the Connect Wallet button in the page header or sidebar.
  2. Sign in using your Google account, Twitter / X, Discord, or standard Email.
  3. Alternatively, click Detect Wallets to connect external hardware or browser extension accounts like MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet.
  4. Once connected, Privy automatically provisions a secure, non-custodial embedded wallet key secured directly via your device hardware.

How to Switch to Arc Testnet

SynArc requires your connected wallet to be configured for Arc Testnet to query balances and execute contract operations.

Method 1: Automatic

If you are on another network, SynArc will display a Switch to Arc banner on your settings page. Simply click this banner to automatically authorize a network switch in your wallet.

Method 2: Manual Parameters

Add the custom network configuration manually in your wallet:

  • Network Name: Arc Testnet
  • Chain ID: 5042002
  • RPC URL: https://rpc.testnet.arc.network
  • Currency Symbol: USDC
  • Block Explorer: https://testnet.arcscan.app

How to Get USDC on Arc Testnet

Arc is a stablecoin-native network where transaction gas fees are denominated directly in stablecoins like USDC. To interact with contracts, you require testnet USDC:

  1. Make sure you have the Canteen ARC CLI installed by running:

bash

uv tool install git+https://github.com/the-canteen-dev/ARC-cli

  1. Retrieve a developer faucet allotment in your terminal using arc-canteen rpc-url or the official Canteen platform developer portal.
  2. Use the faucet link inside the developer dashboard to mint mock testnet USDC directly to your connected wallet address.

Light/Dark Mode

SynArc supports a highly polished presentation mode toggleable directly in the interface.

  • Toggle available in Settings page: Easily switch between light and dark themes via the Appearance setting.
  • Dark mode is default: SynArc defaults to dark mode on first load to optimize readability.
  • Preference saved across sessions: Your selected theme preference is persisted automatically in local storage.
