Dusk If I’m moving value on most chains, the transaction is public in a way people underestimate. Even when the amount is small, the pattern of activity can be louder than the amount. Here, the promise is simpler: reduce what the public can learn from routine actions.
For users, that means fewer weird moments. Less “why did my wallet get tracked after that one transfer?” Less second-guessing whether a contract interaction just revealed more than it should. And if you’re dealing with assets that behave like securities, the stakes are higher—because privacy isn’t only about hiding, it’s about limiting exposure to the wrong audience.
I also like that they’re thinking in standards, not just features. XSC and the idea of privacy-aware tokens is more useful than a one-off “private swap” gimmick.
