Deposit 500, Withdraw 500, Congratulations 🚪
Here is the part most posts about this skip. A shielded balance protects what happens inside it, and the two edges where money enters and leaves are ordinary transactions anyone can read.
Put 500 in from one address on $SOL and take 500 out to a related address an hour later and you have drawn the map yourself, no matter what the system in the middle does.
That is not a flaw in the mechanism, it is timing and amounts, and the same critique applies to every shielded pool DeFi has ever shipped.
What actually fixes it is depth and habit, meaning more users, more amounts that do not match and funds that sit rather than bounce, which is why the honest version of this conversation is about adoption rather than cryptography.
Arcium handles the part it can handle. A computation is split into fragments across a cluster of nodes, no single node holds a readable copy of the input, and the correct answer comes back.
The result settles on Solana as an ordinary public transaction, so the edges stay visible and the work in between does not.
C-SPL is the piece that seals the amount inside a transfer and narrows those edges considerably, and it has not shipped yet.
Anyone promising fully sealed anything is selling something, and the projects worth following are the ones naming their edges before somebody else does.
