#dusk $DUSK Zedger Protocol Explained: Confidential Smart Contracts on Dusk

Enabling Privacy and Compliance in Blockchain Finance

Discover how Dusk Network’s Zedger Protocol delivers privacy, security, and regulatory compliance for smart contracts.

Introduction

Smart contracts have revolutionized finance, but there’s a catch—on most public blockchains, transaction data is visible to everyone. That doesn’t fly for banks and regulated markets that require confidentiality. Dusk Network addresses this with Zedger, a protocol designed for confidential smart contracts that still meet compliance standards.

Zedger brings together privacy, security, and adaptability, making smart contracts practical for real financial applications.

Confidential Execution: Inputs, outputs, and contract logic remain shielded. Sensitive financial transactions aren’t exposed to the public.

Regulatory Compliance: Auditors and authorized parties get the access they need, so compliance is thorough—not just a formality.

Financial Use Cases: Ideal for security token offerings, private lending, or any financial product that demands discretion.

Zedger operates alongside Dusk’s Phoenix transaction model, enabling private, UTXO-based transactions to interact with confidential contracts. This allows financial institutions to execute complex operations on-chain without revealing sensitive data.

Consider a bank using Zedger to issue tokenized bonds. Investor identities and holdings stay confidential, while regulators can confirm compliance without accessing every detail.

Zedger redefines smart contracts for financial services. Privacy isn’t sacrificed for compliance. With confidential execution and robust oversight, Dusk Network makes it possible for real-world financial organizations to leverage blockchain technology.
