I used to think that the question of privacy in finance was simple: reveal too much, and privacy disappears. Reveal too little, and regulation becomes impossible.

DUSK makes this binary seem outdated.

Its Phoenix model uses shielded notes and zero-knowledge proofs, while selective disclosure can be made by viewing keys when an authorized party needs proof. Moonlight, meanwhile, keeps public account flows transparent. Both reside on the same stream, but they expose very different information.

The interesting part isn’t the cryptography itself. It’s the permission range it creates.

An investor doesn’t want to reveal every balance. An issuer might need visibility into ownership. An auditor might need proof. A regulator might need specific information not the entire financial history.

So the real design issue becomes: Who sees what, and for what reason?

It’s more important than just calling DUSK “private.”

Because if regulated finance runs on-chain, maybe transparency shouldn’t mean everyone sees everything. Maybe it should mean the right party can verify the right truth without getting the rest.
