Data privacy risks
Institutions cannot expose transaction details, balances, or strategies on public blockchains.
Dusk protects sensitive data using zero-knowledge proofs while keeping transactions verifiable.
2. Regulatory compliance requirements
Banks and funds must follow strict rules like KYC, AML, and securities laws.
Dusk builds compliance directly into the protocol instead of relying on external tools.
3. Lack of confidential smart contracts
Public blockchains make smart contract logic and state fully visible.
Dusk enables confidential smart contracts, allowing private financial operations on-chain.
4. Settlement delays and risk
Traditional systems and some blockchains suffer from slow or uncertain settlement.
Dusk offers instant and final settlement, reducing counterparty and operational risk.
5. Identity and permission control
Institutions need to control who can access or view financial data.
Dusk provides on-chain identity and permissioning without revealing personal information.
6. Tokenizing real-world assets safely
Issuing assets like bonds or funds on public chains can break regulations.
Dusk supports compliant tokenization and trading of real-world assets.
7. Institutional-grade security needs
Financial infrastructure must be reliable, secure, and built for long-term use.
Dusk is designed as professional financial infrastructure, not experimental tech.
Summary:
Dusk focuses on real institutional problems — privacy, compliance, settlement, and control — rather than speculative use cases, making it a practical blockchain for modern finance.
