Santiment data shows that the social popularity of AI rig complex (ARC) has reached its highest level in 2026. ARC is an AI project based on Solana, launched by Playgrounds Analytics in December 2024, focusing on modular AI application development. The recent surge in popularity stems from Circle announcing a $222 million pre-sale of its Arc blockchain ecosystem, valued at approximately $3 billion. Due to the use of the name "ARC" for both projects, there has been confusion in social media discussions. （Santiment）
