HELIUS RINGS BRINGS PRIVACY TO SOLANA

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Helius, a Solana RPC and infrastructure provider, is launching Rings, a two-tier privacy layer built on Solana. The public ring hides transaction amounts while keeping sender and recipient addresses visible, preventing amount-based MEV extraction, with DeFi integrations planned across staking, trading, and borrow/lend. The customizable ring is fully anonymous, concealing sender, recipient, and amounts, and targets institutions and neobanks that need configurable compliance controls. The architecture splits into a permissionless public tier and a permissioned enterprise tier, both running on Solana's existing infrastructure.
