$DUSK ( often seen paired as DUSK/USDT on exchanges ) is the native cryptocurrency of Dusk Network, a privacy-oriented Layer-1 blockchain designed to support regulated financial applications and the tokenization of real-world assets while maintaining user confidentiality and compliance. Built with advanced cryptography like zero-knowledge proofs and a unique consensus mechanism (Segregated Byzantine Agreement), Dusk Network aims to enable the issuance, trading, and settlement of tokenized securities and other financial instruments in a way that satisfies regulatory frameworks, particularly in Europe. The #dusk token itself is used for paying network fees, staking to secure the network and earn rewards, deploying smart contracts, and participating in governance. With a capped supply of 1 billion tokens and a presence on major centralized and decentralized exchanges via trading pairs like DUSK/USDT, the project focuses on bridging traditional finance (TradFi) with decentralized finance (DeFi) in a compliant, privacy-preserving ecosystem. @Dusk
