Token holders can now delegate stake to nodes they trust, earning a pro-rata share of computation fees (net of operator commission).
Note: Delegated stake is subject to slashing and may be partially or fully lost if a node misbehaves or fails protocol requirements. Delegation is
Delphi has released an in-depth report on Arcium, covering our tech stack, confidential payments, ecosystem, and Blackthorn, our newly announced encrypted AI inference architecture.
The full report is free to read on the Delphi portal linked below.
Arcium is the encrypted compute layer for blockchains.
Everything on a public blockchain is permanently visible. That works for speculation but rules out anything that has to keep a secret while it runs. A sealed-bid auction collapses once the bids are visible. An order gets

Another massive milestone for Zinc, achieved just 6 weeks after launch.
Arcium is a core part of the Zinc infrastructure, and both products continue to push each other forward every day.

Every confidential AI cloud today trusts a CPU TEE somewhere in the stack.
Those chips have had over a dozen published exploits since 2020, including key extraction and forged attestation.
Arcium Blackthorn removes the CPU TEE from the trust chain entirely.
Because the CPU TEE is no longer required, Blackthorn is built to run on NVIDIA GPUs already deployed today.
Right now only a small fraction of GPUs qualify as confidential-AI-ready, since the CPU TEE and its certified cloud stack narrow the pool sharply.
Removing that
Removing the CPU TEE takes out one of the biggest points of failure in Private AI today, making it both more private and more available.
Blackthorn is coming soon:
