Found something in the @Dusk docs I hadn't seen anyone break down: every block reward on the network splits by fixed percentages. Block generators take 70%, possibly up to 80%. The development fund gets 10%. Validation committee 5%. Ratification committee 5%. Every single block, forever, no vote needed to keep it flowing.
Why does that split matter?
Because most chains pay validators and nothing else, then beg for grants later. Dusk hardwired ecosystem funding into consensus itself. On top of that, the foundation committed 15 million $DUSK to a development fund for builders. That's treasury by protocol rule, not by promise.
Also quietly notable is this 21X, the first EU firm with a DLT-TSS license, has had live trading since September 8, 2025, and Dusk is on boarded as a trade participant. Regulated rails, already running.
My unease that 10% development fund slice compounds into serious long-term power. Who decides where it goes?
Governance question is that if $DUSK holders voted on fund allocation, would spending improve or just become politics? #dusk
