#dusk $DUSK @Dusk
My friend got married in France. We were all happy for Ana and Stefan, and kept in touch after they moved to Marseille.
Ana was a journalist, so I assumed finding work there would be pretty straightforward.
I was wrong. What I didnt thought of at the moment was that she hadnt learned French
Her journalism skills hadnt changed. The problem was that knowing how to do your job in one language doesn't mean you can immediately do that same job in another
So her first year in France was spent learning the language before she could properly get back to the work she already knew how to do.
That story made me think about building on blockchains.
I always assumed that if you knew how to build on one chain, moving to another was mostly about learning the ecosystem
Turns out, its not that simple
@Dusk_Foundation originaIly had its own language for smart contracts. So an Ethereum developer could arrive with years of Solidity experience and still have to learn a completely diferent language before those skills were useful on @Dusk .
That's a much bigger barrier than I initially realized.
Now DuskEVM testnet is live, launched August 10.
Solidity. Hardhat. Tools Ethereum developers already know.
So instead of asking developers to learn a new language just to enter the ecosystem, Dusk is making the environment famiLiar to people who already know how to build
And that changes the question for me.
Dusk already has mainnet, regulated market infrastructure, the NPEX connection and EU compliance work.
Now I want to see what happens when the language barrier gets removed.
Ana eventually learned French and got back to journalism.
Dusk has made it easier for developers to “speak the language.”
Now the interesting part is seeing who actually starts building.👀
