At first I assumed privacy on a blockchain meant nothing is visible. Everything hidden. No one can see anything. That felt like the only real definition.

Then I looked at how Dusk actually designs it. Privacy here is selective. Some information stays confidential. Other information can be revealed to the right parties when required. The system does not force a binary choice between full transparency and full secrecy.

That distinction changes the entire use case. Institutions do not need a chain where nothing can ever be audited. They need a chain where sensitive market data is protected by default, yet authorized parties can still verify what the rules require.

Most privacy narratives skip this middle ground. Dusk builds for it.

What I keep wondering is whether selective disclosure will feel like enough privacy for the people who demand complete opacity, or whether it will finally feel practical enough for the institutions that need both confidentiality and control.

What does real privacy mean when the people who must check still need a way to check?
