Dusk Network – blockchain L1 focused on privacy-first, specializing in tokenizing RWA (real-world assets) and regulated securities. Strengths: secure smart contracts (confidential smart contracts) using zero-knowledge proofs, keeping transactions private while still complying with regulations (MiCA EU), supporting tokenized securities with self-custody.

$DUSK is the native token, used for staking, network fees, governance. Currently (February 2026): price ≈ $0.09-0.10 USD, market cap ≈ $45-50M, volume 24h ≈ $12-17M (recently surged due to hype around RWA + privacy coins).

Pros: Addresses the issue of privacy vs compliance in RWA (trillions of potential), partnership with NPEX + Chainlink, mainnet live, DuskEVM EVM-compatible.

Cons & risks: Price has corrected after pump (from ATH >$1), high volume but on-chain adoption (TVL RWA) has not exploded, competition from Ondo/Polymesh.

Opening: If you believe RWA + privacy will lead in 2026, consider $DUSK a small position (2-4% of capital), wait for sustainable growth in TVL of tokenized assets. Contrary to the crowd: Don't chase short volume pumps, risk of dump if lacking new regulatory catalysts.
