​In a world where every transaction on a public ledger is visible to the public, institutional adoption has always faced a major hurdle: privacy. Enter @Dusk _foundation. In 2026, the launch of the DuskEVM and Hedger technology has set a new standard for what a privacy-preserving blockchain should look like.

​Dusk utilizes advanced Zero-Knowledge Proofs to ensure that transaction details (like the sender, receiver, and amount) remain confidential, while still providing "auditable privacy." This means that while the public can't see your balance, a regulator or auditor can verify that you have met all legal requirements. This balance is achieved through the Citadel SDK, which allows users to prove their identity (KYC) without ever revealing their personal data on-chain.

​With $DUSK powering the network, we are seeing the first truly "Institutional-Grade" infrastructure. The ability to handle high-throughput transactions with instant finality makes it the ideal home for tokenized bonds, equities, and even digital Euro payments. As we move further into 2026, the utility of the #Dusk network will only grow as more institutions look for a safe, compliant, and private way to enter the Web3 space.
