We took the path less travelled.

Unlike many others who sought capital from external VCs, we looked inward, turning to the heart of our mission—the community.

Led by fellow Stellar @karlmja, Partner at @ArcaneGrp, ARC is now fuelled by the collective strength of our community, allowing us to stay true to our values and enabling us to prioritise decision-making for the longterm success of ARC.

Thank you to all our members who participated in the fundraise. Every contribution matters and helps lay the foundation for our future growth and expansion plans.
