I’ve been around crypto long enough to see the same story repeat. A new chain shows off huge TPS, tiny fees, everyone gets excited, and then you start wondering what actually matters once real financial use cases enter the picture.
That’s what makes Dusk interesting to me.
With securities settlement, the hard part isn’t simply moving transactions quickly. You’re dealing with ownership records, transfer limits, compliance, privacy, and the need to prove that everything is still correct. That sounds a lot messier than another TPS benchmark.
I started looking into how Dusk approaches this through Rusk and its contract environment, and I found something I didn’t expect. Microkelvin had an earlier role in handling complex state, but Dusk later removed it because state growth was becoming a problem.
Honestly, I like seeing that kind of history. It reminds me this isn’t some perfectly planned story where every piece worked from day one.
I’m still not convinced Dusk has proven itself for serious institutional applications. There just aren’t enough real world contracts running at that level yet.
But after watching so many projects chase the same narratives, I keep noticing one thing here. The design seems to start from the problems finance actually has to deal with.
That feels more meaningful to me than another big TPS number.
