Circle Introduces Arbitrum Support and Compliance Engine for Web3 Services

Circle has announced two significant updates for its Web3 Services this September: the support for Arbitrum across its product suite and the launch of a new Compliance Engine for Programmable Wallets, according to circle.com.

Web3 Services Now Support Arbitrum

Circle's Web3 Services product suite now fully supports the Arbitrum One blockchain. This integration means that Circle’s Programmable Wallets, Gas Station, and Smart Contract Platform are now build-ready for Arbitrum. Arbitrum One is a Layer 2 (L2) chain on Ethereum that uses rollups to batch transactions and settle them on the Ethereum blockchain, enabling it to handle up to 40,000 transactions per second. This offers near-instant transaction settlement at scale with minimal costs, making it a highly effective platform for a variety of applications, including gaming, social media, and decentralized finance (DeFi).

Developers can dive into Circle’s documentation to start building with Web3 Services on Arbitrum.

Compliance Engine: Integrated Risk Screening

In September, Circle also launched its new Compliance Engine for Programmable Wallets. This feature is designed to help builders and businesses navigate the evolving landscape of digital asset regulation. The Compliance Engine offers customizable, automated compliance checks, eliminating the need for subscriptions to third-party vendors.

The first release of the Compliance Engine provides UI and API access for Transaction Screening. This allows builders to:

• Automate real-time checks to identify risky transactions.
• Customize rules based on risk type or severity.
• Access dashboards or connect webhooks for real-time reporting.

Those interested in trying out the Compliance Engine can explore Circle’s documentation for more information or start leveraging Programmable Wallets and the Compliance Engine through the Console.
