Why WebAssembly Is The Engine For Dusk's Smart Contracts
In the race to build a truly private and compliant blockchain, the choice of execution environment is everything. For $DUSK that choice is clear: WebAssembly (WASM). But why did @Dusk ditch the traditional EVM for WASM? The answer lies in the "Trilemma of Privacy": Speed, Security, and Scalability.
1. Speed:
Privacy isn't free; it costs computation. Dusk relies on advanced Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) like PLONK to secure transactions without revealing data. Traditional VMs struggle with this heavy arithmetic. WASM, however, offers near-native execution speed. It allows Dusk’s custom Virtual Machine, Piecrust, to crunch complex ZK-cryptography in milliseconds, making private smart contracts as fast as public ones.
2. Developer Freedom:
Why force developers to learn a niche language? WASM allows smart contracts to be written in battle-tested languages like Rust, C++, or Go. This opens the Dusk ecosystem to millions of traditional developers, not just blockchain specialists. It means safer code, better tooling, and a lower barrier to entry for institutions building on Dusk.
3. Sandboxed Security:
WASM was built for the open web, meaning it is secure by design. It runs code in a memory-safe sandbox, isolating smart contracts from the host network. For a compliance-focused chain like Dusk, this layer of defense is non-negotiable, ensuring that one bad contract cannot crash the system.

TRUST WALLET
has faced multiple critical failures, with the most recent being a massive incident that occurred in December 2025.
●The main reasons for these failures are:
●Infiltration of malicious code (December #2025
A critical vulnerability was detected in version 2.68 of the browser extension, which was compromised on December 24, 2025.
THE FAILURE:
The extension's code was modified to extract seed phrases and wallet data when users imported them, sending them to a fake domain.
IMPACT:
More than $6 million stolen from hundreds of users on networks like $BTC $ETH and $SOL
SOLUTION:
The developers released version 2.69 and urged users to disable and update the extension immediately.
Trust Wallet has had historical problems with the way it generates security keys:
Failure of #WebAssembly (2022-2023): Wallets created between November 14 and 23, 2022, had "weak entropy." This means the random number generator was not complex enough, allowing attackers to guess recovery phrases and steal about $170,000.
Vulnerability in iOS (Investigated in 2024): It was discovered that older versions of the iOS app relied solely on the device's time to generate entropy, facilitating brute force attacks.
3. "Supply Chain" Attacks and Phishing
Supply chain compromise:
The attack in December 2025 is suspected to have been an intrusion in the official update process, allowing attackers to insert MALICIOUS CODE into the legitimate version of the app store.
FAKE APPLICATIONS:
Many users lose funds by downloading extensions or applications that imitate Trust Wallet in stores like the Firefox Store or Chrome Web Store, which are specifically designed to drain funds.
