One thing that hardly anyone is talking about but I am pretty bullish on: Arcium’s new confidential SPL token standard on Solana. Not just because compliant privacy will be critical long-term to bridge Web2 and Web3, but because it could spark an entirely new wave of crypto narratives we haven’t seen before. In crypto, every major vertical had its “hype before maturity” phase: Think of DeFi, NFTs, DeSci, you name it. I truly believe, privacy never really experienced that wave due to obvious compliancy reasons. But this is going to change with Arcium. And the degen use cases are endless: - Stealth memecoins: hidden supply, surprise burns, viral reveals - AI agent tokens: bots launching/farming tokens under full encryption - Private betting markets: whales & influencers going head-to-head, off-feed - Shadow launchpads: ape the narrative, discover later what you bought - Encrypted DeFi: private LPs, hidden flows, fully meta-driven Solana just unlocked a new meta. Powered by @ArciumHQ - and hence fully compliant, unlike most other privacy tech.

Internet capital markets require confidentiality. Today, we're excited to introduce the development of Confidential SPL Token — a unified standard merging core SPL programs to bring native confidentiality to @solana. The same SPL experience — now encrypted. ↓↓↓
