Helius Brings Privacy Rings to Solana Mainnet for Token Transfers

Helius has launched Privacy Rings on Solana mainnet, giving users a way to transfer supported tokens while concealing what asset is sent and how much moves.

The permissionless protocol supports SOL, SPL assets and Token-2022 tokens. Users can deposit assets into a private pool, send them to any Solana wallet, then return funds to a public balance. Transactions execute and settle on Solana’s mainnet. The system encrypts a transfer’s asset type and amount, but wallet addresses remain visible.

Developers can add the feature to existing apps through an API or software development kit (SDK). Jupiter, Backpack and DFlow are integrating the protocol.

Helius is also preparing Custom Rings, a permissioned version for institutions. It is under audit and is expected to reach mainnet in the coming weeks, with selective disclosure, audit access and KYC-based whitelists.
