Quiet Transparency, Hard Guarantees
@Dusk Building on a public chain trains you to treat every variable like it will be copied, indexed, and resurfaced later. Dusk flips that default. With confidential smart contracts on the Rusk VM, you commit private inputs, run the logic, and publish a proof that the result followed the contract’s rules, not the underlying data. The relevance shows up the moment compliance enters the room. Dusk’s Citadel work aims to support KYC/AML checks with zero-knowledge proofs, so a market can validate eligibility without revealing the whole customer file. Confidential state plus verifiable compliance lets builders design systems that feel like real markets, not public spreadsheets.
