Decentralized Escrow & Continuous Streaming Protocol on the ARC Network
Arc Drift is an on-chain, non-custodial payment protocol that allows users to send delayed, continuous, and cancelable micro-payments using USDC. Built for the ARC Testnet, it features a smart contract vault and an automated off-chain Keeper Bot network that executes transactions on behalf of recipients—enabling a true zero-gas claiming experience.
Standard blockchain transactions are instantaneous and final. Arc Drift introduces programmable time into token transfers.
When a user initializes a Drift, their USDC is locked in the ArcDriftCore smart contract. The funds are then distributed according to the chosen mathematical rule. To solve the UX friction of requiring recipients to pay gas to "claim" their funds, our off-chain Keeper Bot automatically covers the ARC gas fee to execute mature Drifts.
