What is Arcium?
Arcium is an encrypted computation network that uses multi-party computation (MPC) so apps can compute on data no single node can see. It coordinates on Solana; developers write encrypted instructions with Arcis and a TypeScript client. Node operators vote the price per computation unit each epoch; the ARX token covers fees, staking and governance.
Arcium pros and cons
- Inputs stay hidden from any single node
- Works with Anchor-compatible Solana programs
- Cluster-level fee markets keep unrelated jobs from competing
- Running your own Arx node is listed as coming soon
- Computation prices change each epoch by operator vote
- Queued computations expire after 180 slots
