On Arc the native asset is USDC and the same balance is also the ERC-20 at `0x3600…`; `LaunchLocker` keeps one ledger per currency (`reserved[currency]`, `claimable`), so a native-quoted position would let a credited ERC-20 share (a payout on Circle's blocklist, and three sanctioned addresses are blocklisted on Arc's USDC already) be read as native surplus by another launch's `collect` and swept, after which every smaller USDC collect underflows. `test_fork_arc_withoutTheGuardCreditedUsdcWouldBeSwept` reproduces it with the guard disabled; `test_fork_arc_nativeQuotedPoolCannotSweepCreditedUsdc` pins the refusal. The locker is byte-identical to Base and Robinhood Chain. Only quote: USDC `0x3600000000000000000000000000000000000000` (6 dec; it is also the gas token, the native balance at 18 dec).
