Arcium is a parallelized confidential computing network that allows developers to build and deploy privacy-preserving decentralized applications through encrypted computation and zero-knowledge proofs. It serves as the privacy base layer for blockchain transactions, enabling compliant privacy for users and merchants while maintaining full composability with existing protocols and ecosystems.
The native token ARX powers the network by incentivizing validators through staking, facilitating payments for encrypted compute resources, and enabling governance participation.
In March 2025, Arcium completed a $1 million private angel round from a wide range of individual investors and community backers via Echo, bringing their total raised to $11 million.
