Arcium launches privacy-preserving Mainnet Alpha on Solana as Umbra debuts shielded finance layer

In October, the protocol secured nearly $155 million in ICO commitments via MetaDAO.
The project previously raised $5.5 million in a strategic round led by Greenfield Capital in 2024 to develop its confidential computing network, bringing total funding at the time to $9 million.

Arcium was founded by the team behind Elusiv, a zero-knowledge privacy protocol built on Solana.
