Circle Unifies Bitcoin-Backed Token Balance Across Ethereum and Arc Circle added its Bitcoin-backed token, cirBTC, to Gateway on Oct. 23, giving holders a single deposited balance usable across Ethereum and Arc. The integration treats deposits across supported networks as one spendable balance per asset, reducing the need to keep funds ready on both chains, according to Circle’s announcement. Gateway keeps a separate balance for each asset. A cirBTC transfer burns the token on the source network and mints cirBTC on the destination; it neither converts the balance into USDC nor transfers native Bitcoin. For an exchange or wallet serving both chains, Circle says the shared inventory can be deployed where a withdrawal or payment needs to land. ⚠️ Personal market analysis only.
