ok I did not expect withdrawing $DUSK from DuskEVM to feel like a puzzle but here we are 😭
so you bridge your DUSK back from DuskEVM to Dusk L1, expecting it to just show up right. nope. it sits "in transit," not usable yet. then it needs a proof submitted on L1. then a separate finalization step. three stages before you can actually touch it.
here's the part that got me: finalizing the withdrawal costs L1 gas... paid in DUSK. but the DUSK you're trying to unlock is literally the thing that's still stuck mid-withdrawal. so if you don't already have a small reserve of unshielded DUSK sitting on L1 beforehand, your own withdrawal can't pay to finish itself.
not a bug, just nobody tells you upfront. you find out when your funds are just floating there and you're refreshing the explorer wondering what you did wrong.
honestly this is the kind of friction that either gets fixed with better wallet UX, or quietly trains people to always keep a small DUSK buffer on L1 just in case.
