Dusk is a Layer 1 blockchain built to support regulated and privacy-focused financial infrastructure. Established in 2018, the project is designed for institutional adoption, compliant DeFi, and the on-chain management of Real-World Assets (RWAs).
What sets Dusk apart is its protocol-level approach to privacy and auditability. Confidential smart contracts protect sensitive financial data, while allowing authorized parties to verify compliance when necessary. This makes Dusk suitable for regulated markets, tokenized securities, and institutional financial applications.
With a modular architecture and long-term regulatory alignment, Dusk provides practical infrastructure for real financial use cases on blockchain. The $DUSK token supports network security through staking and governance, aligning incentives across the ecosystem.
