What Radian is

Radian is a news, data and education site covering Arc, the stablecoin Layer-1 blockchain built by Circle, whose public mainnet opens on September 16, 2026. We publish a daily briefing at 09:00 UTC, a from-zero learning library, live chain data, and coverage of the ARC token question.

Who publishes it

Radian is built by TrustSwap and powered by Team Finance. It is independent of Circle Internet Group, Inc. We are not affiliated with Circle or Arc, we do not receive editorial input from them, and we do not publish sponsored coverage of tokens on Arc.

Editorial policy

  • Every story names its sources. Our content model cannot publish an article with an empty source list.
  • The only sources we treat as confirmation of an official Arc or Circle statement are arc.io and circle.com. Everything else is a lead.
  • Airdrop and token coverage always separates confirmed from rumor, in the text, not in a disclaimer at the bottom.
  • We publish no price content for tokens that do not exist. Our /arc-token/price route redirects to the status hub for exactly this reason.
  • Corrections are logged inline in the article they correct, with the date and what changed. We do not silently edit.
  • No wallet connection exists anywhere on this site except clearly labelled third-party embeds under /tools. Our airdrop activity checker is read-only and never asks for a signature.

How we are funded

Radian is funded by TrustSwap as a public resource for the Arc ecosystem. We link to TrustSwap and Team Finance products where a reader genuinely benefits — token locking, verification tooling, launch guides — and we label those links as ours.

Contact and corrections

Corrections, tips and source challenges: desk@radian.news. If we got something wrong, tell us and we will log the correction in the article itself.
