Hedger is why serious money might actually use DuskEVM
Let’s be honest—real finance does not operate in public.
Funds don’t broadcast positions. Traders don’t reveal counterparties. Desks don’t expose strategies in real time. Do that, and you get front-run, copied, or liquidated into oblivion.
This is where DuskEVM — and Hedger specifically — changes the game.
Public Chains Break Real Trading
On most blockchains, every balance, transfer, and contract interaction is fully visible. That’s fine for retail experiments—but it completely breaks:
OTC trading
Hedging strategies
Prop trading
Market-making
Institutional DeFi
If everyone can see your book, you don’t have an edge.
Hedger: Privacy Built Into the EVM
Dusk didn’t slap privacy on later as a feature.
They embedded it directly into the execution layer with Hedger.
Hedger enables:
Confidential balances
Private transfers
Shielded smart contract execution
All powered by zero-knowledge proofs combined with homomorphic encryption techniques—meaning transactions remain private while still being provably correct.
You can:
Trade on-chain
Hedge exposure
Run multi-leg strategies
Interact with counterparties
Without leaking positions, size, timing, or relationships.
Privacy and Compliance — Not One or the Other
Here’s where Dusk separates itself from “privacy chains.”
This isn’t total opacity or regulatory evasion.
Dusk supports selective disclosure.
Institutions keep data confidential by default
Auditors and regulators can verify activity when required
Compliance is enforced without exposing the entire ledger
That’s how real markets work
Privacy for participants.
Visibility for regulators.
No compromises.
Why Institutions Actually Care
If you’ve ever tried to execute:
OTC deals on public chains
Large hedges without moving markets
Proprietary strategies without being copied
You already know why this matters.
Hedger allows institutional workflows to exist on-chain without feeling crippled by radical
