🇮🇳 India Prepares Its Own Rupee-Backed Stablecoin: ARC
India is getting ready to launch ARC, a fully backed rupee-pegged stablecoin designed to work alongside the RBI’s digital rupee in a strict two-tier system.
The plan is simple:
🔸Stop liquidity from flowing into dollar stablecoins 🔸Keep capital and innovation inside the country 🔸Boost demand for government bonds through secure, regulated backing
If all goes according to plan, ARC will debut in Q1 2026, marking India’s first major step into a sovereign-controlled stablecoin ecosystem.
