Envelope

Overview

The USDC bridge and token launchpad on Arc.

Envelope is two things behind one app: a bridge that locks USDC on Base and issues eUSD on Arc against it one for one, and a launchpad that puts a token's entire supply into a Uniswap v3 pool at launch.

Two things to know first

Bridging is not instant. Your transaction records the request, and the funds arrive on the other chain about a minute later, once the first chain has confirmed. Check the destination chain for the balance rather than your own receipt.

Arc charges gas in native USDC, not in eUSD. A wallet that has only ever received bridged eUSD holds no gas and cannot send a transaction, including a redeem. The gas station lets you buy Arc gas with eUSD.
