A single assumption doing all the work in every price prediction**
Read through several DUSK price prediction pages expecting different models and found the same footnote hiding in each one: a flat "+5% annual growth rate" assumption used to generate the 2027, 2030, and beyond figures. Not a model built from emission schedule, RWA adoption curves, or NPEX volume projections — just a fixed compounding rate applied uniformly regardless of what the rest of the article argues about fundamentals.
That's worth noticing because these are the same pages citing mainnet launch, DuskEVM, and institutional RWA narrative as reasons to be bullish, then quietly reverting to a generic +5%/year assumption the moment they need to produce a specific future number. The qualitative story and the quantitative prediction aren't actually connected — one is analysis, the other is a spreadsheet formula that would produce the same shape of chart for almost any token, privacy-focused or not.
This isn't unique to Dusk; it's how most retail-facing price prediction content gets mass-produced across the industry. But it matters here specifically because DUSK's real value driver — regulated RWA settlement volume — is precisely the kind of variable a flat annual growth rate can't capture. If NPEX tokenization scales the way the roadmap suggests, +5%/year would understate it badly. If the DLT Pilot Regime sandbox stalls, it would overstate it just as badly. The number isn't wrong so much as disconnected from the thesis it sits next to.
Worth asking before trusting any "2030 price target": is the model actually derived from the project's specific fundamentals, or is it the same generic growth assumption dressed up as project-specific analysis?#dusk $DUSK @Dusk
