Arcium Opens ARX Eligibility Checker and Launches Quests Phase 1 Ahead of June 22 TGE
Arcium opened its ARX token eligibility checker and launched Quests Phase 1 on June 21, giving users their final window before the June 22 TGE on Solana.
Arcium opened its ARX token eligibility checker and launched Quests Phase 1 today, June 21, giving users their last window to confirm a Retroactive Token Grant allocation or earn additional ARX before the confidential computing network's token generation event on June 22.
What Arcium Builds
Arcium is a Solana-native decentralized confidential computing network that runs Multi-Party Computation (MPC) across a distributed node set. The design allows programs to process private inputs without any single node, or Arcium itself, ever seeing the underlying data. Applications built on the network include encrypted order books, sealed-bid auctions, confidential AI inference, and privacy-preserving token transfers via the Confidential SPL token standard.
The project began as Elusiv, a single-application privacy layer, before the team pivoted to a general-purpose compute architecture. Arcium's backers include Greenfield Capital, Coinbase Ventures, and Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko. Mainnet launched in February 2026. Arcium reports the network has processed more than 1 million confidential computations in total, with over 200,000 per day and approximately 4 million mainnet transactions.
ARX Token: Supply and Utility
ARX has a fixed supply of 1 billion tokens with no inflation and no dilution after launch. At TGE, 20.88% of total supply (roughly 208.8 million ARX) unlocks immediately. The remaining supply vests over approximately 4.5 years.
According to Arcium's published tokenomics, the allocation splits across six categories:
Community and Ecosystem categories together represent over 38% of total supply. The Community Sale tranche (2%) unlocks fully at TGE. Validator and Angels tranches, totalling 10.9%, follow 12-month cliffs.
ARX serves two functions in the network. Node operators stake it as collateral to provide compute capacity, with stake weight determining computational work allocation. ARX also carries governance rights across a dual-track system (a Technical track for protocol parameters and a Community track for non-technical decisions), where longer lockup periods earn proportionally larger voting multipliers. Computation fees are paid in SOL; 70% of those fees flow to node operators, 20% to recovery nodes, and 10% to a network treasury.
The RTG Program and Today's Checker
Arcium's distribution mechanism for existing contributors is called the Retroactive Token Grant. The RTG is merit-based rather than a standard airdrop: participants accumulated "Encrypted Credits" through genuine ecosystem activity across three tracks: Community (educational content), Developer (building integrations or running nodes), and Ecosystem (partnerships). The program used anti-Sybil review to filter automated farming from authentic contributions. Eligibility checks are available at rtg.arcium.com/portal.
Arcium announced this morning that "RTG Day is coming. Checker goes live today." The post drew over 40,000 views within hours. Shortly after, the Arcium Foundation introduced Quests Phase 1 at quests-arcium.com as an additional route to ARX allocation: "Users are invited to earn additional $ARX allocation by completing a short series of quests." The Foundation did not specify individual quest tasks in the announcement.
Binance Wallet Booster and Pre-TGE Engagement
The scale of interest ahead of TGE is visible in secondary campaigns. On June 19, Arcium launched a Binance Wallet Booster Campaign offering 1.5 million ARX split among 50,000 winners, requiring eligibility via Binance Wallet MPC wallets with at least two Alpha Points. That post drew 12,378 likes and 52,406 retweets, among the highest-engagement announcements the project has generated. Arcium's earlier TGE date confirmation, a sparse two-line post on June 19, reached over 501,000 views.
ARX is scheduled to generate on June 22.
