As the blockchain landscape matures, the focus has shifted from pure speculation to the integration of real-world financial systems. However, a major hurdle remains: how do we achieve institutional-grade privacy while remaining compliant with global regulations like MiCA? This is where @Dusk steps in as a pioneer.

​Privacy by Default, Auditability by Design

​Most public blockchains are transparent by nature, which is a dealbreaker for institutions that cannot leak sensitive trade data or client identities. Dusk solves this through its native implementation of Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP). Unlike "privacy coins" that often operate in a regulatory gray area, Dusk provides "privacy by default" with selective auditability. This means that while a transaction is confidential, authorized parties can still verify compliance without exposing the underlying data to the public.

​The Power of DuskEVM and ZK-Virtual Machines

​A standout feature in 2026 is the DuskEVM. By offering compatibility with Ethereum’s Solidity while inheriting Dusk’s native privacy features, it allows developers to easily migrate or build dApps that handle private state. Whether it is a decentralized exchange for tokenized securities or a private DeFi protocol, the infrastructure ensures that data remains shielded while the execution remains decentralized.
