On most blockchains, privacy is something you add later using tools, bridges, or complex setups. On Dusk, privacy is built into the base layer. Transaction amounts, balances, and addresses are hidden by default, even from block explorers.
What makes this important is that privacy doesn’t come from trusting a company or a service. It comes from cryptography and the protocol itself. At the same time, Dusk allows compliance and audits when needed. This is a big shift from the usual privacy vs regulation argument. Dusk shows that the two don’t have to be enemies.
