@Dusk _foundation is building a privacy-centric Layer-1 blockchain that bridges real-world finance with decentralized technology. Designed specifically for regulated markets, Dusk uses advanced zero-knowledge proofs to enable confidential transactions and programmable smart contracts while still complying with regulatory requirements like KYC/AML and MiCA. This unique blend of privacy and auditability makes it possible for financial institutions to tokenize, issue, and trade real-world assets such as securities, bonds, and other regulated instruments directly on-chain with confidence and transparency.
At the heart of the ecosystem is the native token $DUSK , which powers transaction fees, staking, governance and incentivizes participation in securing the network. With modular architecture that separates settlement from execution, developers can deploy EVM-compatible applications while preserving privacy where needed, opening doors for compliant DeFi, confidential payments, and institutional finance solutions. Through this innovative approach, #Dusk is not just a blockchain, but a foundational infrastructure enabling the next era of regulated digital markets
