The idea behind Dusk is simple but disciplined.Blockchain should serve real financial systems,not ignore them.Founded in 2018,Dusk was designed to support markets where privacy and regulation are non-negotiable.It is a Layer 1 blockchain with privacy embedded at the core.Zero-knowledge proofs allow transactions to be verified without revealing balances,strategies,or identities.The modular architecture separates execution,settlement,and compliance logic,making the system flexible and resilient.This structure mirrors traditional financial infrastructure,but adds decentralization and programmability.In the real world,finance cannot operate on fully transparent ledgers.Client data must remain confidential,yet regulators require oversight.$DUSK enables selective disclosure,allowing audit access without public exposure.This balance makes it possible to tokenize real-world assets responsibly.Equities,bonds,and regulated instruments can exist on-chain without breaking legal expectations.Developers can build compliant applications without reinventing financial rules.Dusk does not chase attention.It builds foundations.
