Dusk Network is a blockchain built specifically for compliant financial applications. Its mission is to enable institutions to issue, trade, and manage real-world assets onchain while respecting privacy, regulatory requirements, and auditability.
Unlike general-purpose blockchains, Dusk is designed with privacy at the protocol level. It uses advanced zero-knowledge cryptography to ensure sensitive financial data remains confidential, while still allowing regulators and authorized parties to verify compliance when needed.
Dusk supports both tokenization and native issuance of assets such as equities, bonds, and funds. This makes it suitable for institutions looking to modernize capital markets without compromising legal and operational standards.
The network’s architecture is modular and research-driven. Dusk has contributed to major cryptographic innovations, including early implementations of PLONK-based systems, which help balance privacy with performance and security.
DUSK, the native token, is used for staking, governance, and network operations. Validators stake DUSK to secure the chain, while participants are incentivized to act honestly through protocol-level rewards.
As real-world assets continue moving onchain, Dusk Network stands out as a purpose-built solution for privacy-preserving and regulation-ready finance. #dusk
