#dusk $TRUMP $DASH $DUSK @Dusk
i keep thinking if Moonlight DUSK and Phoenix DUSK arrive at DuskVM looking completely different, then Dusk should probably need two different ways to finish them too.
Moonlight is sitting there with public account balance, sender, receiver, amount, nonce moving forward. Phoenix comes from encrypted notes, shielded outputs, nullifiers.
not even remotely the same shape.
so why doesnt Moonlight need some Moonlight-shaped finality and Phoenix need something completely different after DuskVM?
thats the part i kept mixing up.
i was assuming Moonlight’s public account trail and Phoenix’s encrypted-note trail somehow had to keep deciding the shape of finality after DuskVM too.
apparently not.
Moonlight can keep the account model. Phoenix can keep the note model. DuskVM can accept what comes from either side without making Moonlight turn into Phoenix first or Phoenix unwrap itself into Moonlight.
and thats where i think i was giving DuskDS the wrong job.
DuskDS doesnt need one shared DUSK state model underneath both just to finish them. the Moonlight side can arrive carrying public account progression, the Phoenix side can arrive carrying encrypted-note history, and Dusk L1 can still give the resulting state one deterministic finality boundary.
which feels wrong because i kept expecting different state shapes to need different endings too.
but apparently that was something i added in my head.
Phoenix being note-shaped and Moonlight being account-shaped doesnt mean Dusk needs two different answers for when either one is finally done.
