Look at the current state of RWA tokenization, it often feels like we are just putting a digital coat of paint on a crumbling house. Most projects are satisfied with general tokenization, which simply adds a blockchain layer on top of the same old, tired financial systems. The asset still lives in a dusty off-chain database, meaning the friction stays, the middlemen stay, and we are still stuck waiting on legacy infrastructure to move our own money. It is a half-measure that doesn't actually solve the core problem.
That is why I find the concept of native issuance so much more compelling. It is a fundamental shift in how we think about value. When an asset is issued directly on-chain, the entire game changes. I’m fascinated by a world where trades settle instantly instead of taking days, and where ownership is direct rather than dependent on a chain of custodians. It feels like finally moving from a slow, analog world into something built for the modern era.
The reason I am watching Dusk so closely is that they are actually building toward this reality. By focusing on native issuance, they are making it possible for costs to drop as the necessity for middlemen disappears. I love the idea of markets that run 24/7 globally, where rules, payouts, and transfers are all automated by code. It turns a messy, bureaucratic nightmare into a clean, programmable flow that just works, without needing a room full of people to sign off on every move.
Dusk seems to understand that you cannot fix the financial system by just mirroring the past; you have to rebuild it from the ground up to be natively digital. Their approach to making these assets private and compliant while living entirely on-chain is what makes the whole thing feel real. It is about more than just technology for me. It is about the possibility of a financial system that finally matches the speed of our lives, and seeing Dusk push for that level of native efficiency is why I think they are one of the most interesting projects to watch right now.
