AI visual note: The image is an infographic titled "ARC MAINNET LAUNCHES / ARC TOKEN DOES NOT," comparing two columns: under "SEP. 16 MAINNET" it lists "USDC as gas," "Permissioned validators," and "Applications," while under "ARC TOKEN" it shows "NOT LAUNCHED" with proposed roles of "Staking," "Governance," and "Fee mechanics," separated by a "≠" symbol. It reinforces the post's message that while Arc's mainnet launches September 16 with USDC gas and permissioned validators, the ARC token itself remains unlaunched—emphasizing the bottom tagline "NETWORK USAGE IS NOT TOKEN VALUE CAPTURE."
