Hey everyone, let’s talk about one of the strongest real-world use cases Dusk has right now: the partnership with NPEX.
NPEX is a fully licensed Dutch Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF) regulated by the AFM. It has already facilitated over €200 million in financing for SMEs and has more than 17,500 active investors. The Dusk × NPEX collaboration is building Europe’s first blockchain-powered regulated security exchange.
Key points:
• Tokenization of real equities, bonds, funds & certificates on Dusk mainnet
• Full MiCA & MiFID II compliance + ZK-privacy (transactions & balances hidden, but auditable)
• Instant settlement (seconds instead of T+2 days)
• Self-custodial wallets no custodians taking cuts
• Chainlink CCIP used for secure cross-chain transfers
• Phased rollout planned throughout 2026
This builds on Dusk mainnet which has been live since January 7, 2025 (100% uptime after rollout began Dec 20, 2024). Hedger Alpha (confidential EVM transactions) is already in public testing, and the foundation is ready for institutional volume.
$DUSK is the native token: pays gas fees for private trades, staking rewards (500M emissions over 36 years), governance votes. As real regulated assets start moving on-chain, $DUSK demand should increase significantly.
Official Dusk logo looks clean and institutional:
My take: This is not hype it’s a licensed exchange actually using Dusk for tokenized securities. When MiCA is fully in force and RWAs become mainstream in Europe, Dusk is positioned very early. I believe this partnership alone can drive serious adoption in 2026.
What do you think? Would you trade tokenized bonds privately on Dusk?
